{LOW} mode (Rolls-Royce only)

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 45 other vehicles, including the 2016 BMW M5, 2016 BMW 550i xDrive, 2016 BMW 550i, 2016 BMW 535i xDrive, and 2016 BMW 535i. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

{LOW} mode is activated and deactivated by pressing the {LOW} button on the selector lever.

{LOW} mode is recommended if the braking effect of the engine is to be increased, e.g. for a steep downhill gradient. In {LOW} mode the gears continue to shift automatically, but generally in lower gears than in selector lever position D. When the engine is stopped, {LOW} mode is automatically deactivated.

If {LOW} mode is active it is displayed beneath the gear selector display on the TFT display of the instrument panel (KOMBI).
