If Paddle Shift is engaged while in SPORT mode, the
transmission will remain in the selected gear even when
maximum engine speed is reached (except the transmis-
sion will upshift automatically from 1st to 2nd gear at
wide open throttle, if necessary). Otherwise, the trans-
mission will upshift only when commanded by the
driver.
•
In either DRIVE or SPORT mode, the transmission will
automatically downshift as the vehicle slows to a stop
(to prevent engine lugging) and will display the current
gear. Tapping the (+) paddle (at a stop) will allow
starting in second gear. After a stop, the driver should
manually upshift (+) the transmission as the vehicle
accelerates.
•
If a requested downshift would cause the engine to
over-speed, that shift will not occur.
•
The system will ignore attempts to upshift at too low of
a vehicle speed.
•
Holding the (-) paddle depressed will downshift the
transmission to the lowest gear possible at the current
speed.
•
Transmission shifting will be more noticeable when
Paddle Shift mode is enabled.
•
The system may revert to automatic shift mode if a fault
or overheat condition is detected.
To disengage Paddle Shift mode, press and hold the (+)
shift paddle until “D” or “S” is once again indicated in the
instrument cluster. You can shift in or out of Paddle Shift
mode at any time without taking your foot off the accel-
erator pedal.
WARNING!
Do not downshift for additional engine braking on a
slippery surface. The drive wheels could lose their grip
and the vehicle could skid, causing a collision or
personal injury.
