Brake/Transmission Shift Interlock
System
This vehicle is equipped with a Brake Transmis-
sion Shift Interlock system (BTSI) that holds the
gear selector in PARK unless the brakes are
applied. To shift the transmission out of PARK,
the engine must be running and the brake pedal
must be pressed.
The brake pedal must also be pressed to shift
from NEUTRAL into DRIVE or REVERSE when
the vehicle is stopped or moving at low speeds.
Eight-Speed Automatic
Transmission — If Equipped
The transmission gear range (PRNDM) is dis-
played both on the gear selector and in the
Driver Information Display (DID).
To select a gear range, press the lock button on
the gear selector and move the lever rearward
or forward. You must also press the brake pedal
to shift the transmission out of PARK, or to shift
from NEUTRAL into DRIVE or REVERSE when
the vehicle is stopped or moving at low speeds
(refer to “Brake/Transmission Shift Interlock
System” in this section). Select the DRIVE
range for normal driving.
The electronically-controlled transmission pro-
vides a precise shift schedule. The transmission
electronics are self-calibrating; therefore, the
first few shifts on a new vehicle may be some-
what abrupt. This is a normal condition, and
precision shifts will develop within a few hun-
dred miles (kilometers).
Only shift from DRIVE to PARK or REVERSE
when the accelerator pedal is released and the
vehicle is stopped. Be sure to keep your foot on
the brake pedal when shifting between these
gears.
The transmission gear selector has PARK, RE-
VERSE, NEUTRAL, DRIVE, and MANUAL
(Autostick) shift positions. Manual shifts can be
made using the Autostick shift control (refer to
“AutoStick” in this section for further informa-
tion). Toggling the gear selector forward (-) or
rearward (+) while in the MANUAL (AutoStick)
position (beside the DRIVE position) will manu-
ally select the transmission gear, and will dis-
play the current gear in the instrument cluster as
M1, M2, M3, etc.
NOTE:
If the gear selector cannot be moved to the
PARK, REVERSE, or NEUTRAL position
(when pushed forward) it is probably in the
MANUAL (AutoStick, +/-) position (beside
the DRIVE position). In MANUAL (AutoStick)
mode, the transmission gear is displayed in
the instrument cluster (as M1, M2, M3, etc.).
Move the gear selector to the right (into the
DRIVE [D] position) for access to PARK,
REVERSE, and NEUTRAL.
