Gear indicator in instrument cluster (A1) in sport mode "S" and in comfort mode "C" 

It shows the driver the currently selected shift range "1", "2", "3", "4", "5", "6" or selector lever position "D", "R", "N" (neutral) or "P" (park).

Transmission mode display in instrument cluster 

It shows the driver the program selection "S" (sport program) or "C" (comfort program) performed at the transmission modes button (A40/9s8) (model 216) or at the transmission modes switch (S16/5) (model 221).

IMPORTANT The arrows in the gear indicator show the driver which permissible gear selector switch position he can change to. The decisive factor here is whether the speed, at which the vehicle is moving, is under or above the speed threshold of 5 km/h.
