Switch, WINTER
Switch, WINTER |
To make it easier to pull off on slippery road surfaces, the transmission is equipped with a winter mode. The transmission is then prevented from automatically engaging 1st and 2nd gears, and the car will start in 3rd gear.
The WINTER gear-shifting program can be engaged by means of a spring-loaded switch in the selector lever console.
Activating the switch puts 0 V (ground) on control module pin 21.
When WINTER is selected, the WINTER indicator lamp in the main instrument unit goes on. WINTER can be selected in gear position D, whereby SPORT cannot be selected.
