II.) Step-up ratio Adaptation:

1. Accelerate the vehicle to a speed > 80 km/h. Release the accelerator pedal and allow the vehicle to coast. The gearbox adapts itself for 4500, 4000... 1500 and 1400 rpm. P is indicated in the P position in the display.

2. The engine has now reached operating temperature. The idle speed is 800 rpm. Repeat step 2 and 3 of clutch adaptation.
