But you can when you're absolute standstill? (archive)

or do you have to select it before engine is started, too?
Asuming, you can't switch it on while moving, it means when I come to a hill and I want to use it I have to stop the car first and then switch it on.
Presumingly I loose the time advantage to going up this hill, I would have from a better gear ratio for this hill, just because I had to stop first.
So is it only a "starting off thing (Anfahrtshilfe)".

I don't think I get the logic of having this.
Something is so far a bit contradictive.
Maybe it's ZF, who have found out that the valve will do what you say and therefore have given this recommendation with hindsight.

It's like having a feature, which you can't use as intended or it will brake.
I am sure we are all dying to find out the logic in this.

Best Regards
Ralf
