The button for activating/deactivating this mode is located on the panel of the selector/shift lever and is marked with the symbol (see illustrations 25.1, 25.2) .
Winter driving mode can be activated in the positions of the AT selector lever «R», «R», «N», «D» And «3», and on models with Easytronic when starting off - in the display field of the selected transmission mode (see Section 16) the corresponding indicator should light up.
When the winter mode is activated, the car will move in a permanently engaged gear: AT - 3rd, AT with Active Select - 4th, Easytronic - 2nd.
You can turn off the winter mode by pressing the same button again, switching the lever to the positions «2» or «1», switching to manual control mode.
Note: If the Easytronic gearbox is switched to manual mode while winter mode is on, winter mode is deactivated and reactivated when automatic mode is returned.
When the ignition is turned off, this mode is turned off automatically.
Note: To prevent damage to the transmission units, the winter driving mode is also automatically deactivated if the transmission oil temperature is too high.
When winter mode is activated, SPORT mode is deactivated (if it was enabled).
