Function indication

The function display in the selector lever is designed as a gearshift diagram, indicating the positions "P", "R", "N", "D", "M/S". The engaged drive position is indicated in this shift diagram by means of LEDs.

The engaged drive position is only displayed in the gearshift diagram when the Electronic Transmission Control (EGS) has implemented the driver's demand and the gear selector switch (GWS) has been notified of this status by means of a message across the bus.

The function display is active as long as the bus communication is active on the PT CAN or LIN bus.
