Operating temperature (non�selectable).
Upshift points when the engine is cold are set higher to delay upshifting in the individual gears. The increased engine speeds allow the operating temperature to be attained more rapidly, enabling faster catalytic converter response. The program is switched off when the operating temperature is attained, when the Winter or Sport program is switched on, when kickdown is actuated and with ignition "Off".
