66 Sequential M gearbox with Drivelogic* The concept The sequential M gearbox with Drivelogic is an automated manual gearbox with which clutching and shifting is assumed by an electro-hydraulic system. The SMG Drivelogic is operated via two shift paddles on the steering wheel and the selector lever in the center console. It offers the following functions: > Sequential and automated shifting mode > Ability to choose between different driving programs - Drivelogic > Gradient assistance, refer to page 69 > Upshift display and shift lights, refer to page 70 > RPM matching on downshifts > Driving dependent functions: The respective driving situation, e.g. cornering, mountain driving or braking, is detected by sensors and taken into account for shifting, e.g. to achieve optimum gear selection during deceleration and subsequent acceleration > Slip recognition at the rear axle for increasing driving stability, e.g. during downshifting on slippery road surfaces > Operating safety through protection against misshifting. Under normal operating conditions, fuel consumption is lowest when driving in the first driving program of the automated shifting mode. Selector lever positions R: Reverse position N: Neutral position Forward position with one-touch mode: > S: sequential mode > D: automated mode > +: upshifting in sequential mode > -: downshifting in sequential mode. The SMG Drivelogic is ready for operation from ignition key position two or higher. For your safety, it is only possible to engage a driving position with the vehicle stopped approx. two seconds after engaging position 0 with the footbrake depressed - shift-lock function.

Sequential M gearbox with Drivelogic*
The concept
The sequential M gearbox with
Drivelogic is an automated manual
gearbox with which clutching and shift-
ing is assumed by an electro-hydraulic
system.
The SMG Drivelogic is operated via two
shift paddles on the steering wheel and
the selector lever in the center console.
It offers the following functions:
>
Sequential and automated shifting
mode
>
Ability to choose between different
driving programs – Drivelogic
>
Gradient assistance, refer to page
69
>
Upshift display and shift lights, refer
to page
70
>
RPM matching on downshifts
>
Driving dependent functions:
The respective driving situation, e.g.
cornering, mountain driving or brak-
ing, is detected by sensors and taken
into account for shifting, e.g. to
achieve optimum gear selection dur-
ing deceleration and subsequent
acceleration
>
Slip recognition at the rear axle for
increasing driving stability, e.g. dur-
ing downshifting on slippery road
surfaces
>
Operating safety through protection
against misshifting.
Under normal operating conditions, fuel
consumption is lowest when driving in
the first driving program of the auto-
mated shifting mode.
Selector lever positions
R: Reverse position
N: Neutral position
Forward position with one-touch mode:
>
S: sequential mode
>
D: automated mode
>
+: upshifting in sequential mode
>
–: downshifting in sequential mode.
The SMG Drivelogic is ready for opera-
tion from ignition key position two or
higher.
For your safety, it is only possible to
engage a driving position with the vehi-
cle stopped approx. two seconds after
engaging position 0 with the footbrake
depressed – shift-lock function.
