How do you reset the automatic transmission of the Smart car?

Model: Smart Smart 451 - Years 2007-2015
Part: Warning light – error code

When the flashing letter N appears on the Smart instrument panel, it means that the vehicle's automatic transmission has a malfunction. To temporarily resolve this issue, you can put the car in gear when the engine is off. Then, with the gear engaged and the ignition key in position two, push the car so that it can be started. Once the clutch is released during the pushing operation, the car will start. However, it is important to promptly take the car to the workshop for a diagnosis to identify the cause of the anomaly, which is often of an electronic nature.
