Selector lever positions The selector lever position is shown both on the side of the selector lever and in the instrument cluster display. The respective gear may also be shown in the instrument cluster display in Drive D and Sport ® Drive S, as well as in Tiptronic mode. Alternative speed display (mph or km/h) The alternative speed display shows the current vehicle speed in units other than the units shown on the vehicle’s speedometer. For example, if the speedometer shows mph, the alternative speed display shows a digital readout of the current vehicle speed in km/h. This feature can be especially helpful when driving in countries where speed limit signs are posted in units other than those shown on the vehicle’s speedometer.

Switch on emergency flashers and set up a warning triangle to warn oncoming traffic. WARNING Roads and bridges may be dangerously icy even if the outside air temperature is above freez- ing. x If you use the outside temperature display to tell you about frost conditions, remember that roads can even ice over at temperatures above +39 °F (+4 °C).
