What is the Transmission High Temperature Warning Message?
• Under certain driving conditions such as stop-and-go driving or
driving slowly up a hill, the clutches tend to have more slip. This
condition tends to heat up the transmission.
• If the transmission temperature gets too high, a chime will sound and
a warning message will appear in the instrument cluster LCD display.
• If this occurs, stop the vehicle as soon as safely possible and allow the
transmission to cool with the engine running. After the transmission
cools, the vehicle may be driven normally.
Caution
A few common conditions that may make the transmission susceptible
to overheating include:
- Holding the vehicle on an incline with just your foot on the accelerator
pedal
TIP: When holding the vehicle on a hill, use the foot brake rather than
trying to hold the vehicle by keeping your foot on the accelerator pedal.
- Driving in stop-and-go traffic with frequent accelerating and
decelerating at low speed
TIP: Allow a gap to form ahead of you before moving the vehicle
forward
Under certain conditions, such as stop-and-go driving, launching the
vehicle on a steep grade, or backing the vehicle up a long inclined
driveway, the transmission clutch temperatures may increase
excessively. When the clutch temperature is elevated above the normal
operating condition, the high temperature warning message is
displayed. If this occurs, stop the vehicle as soon as safely possible
and allow the transmission to cool with the engine running and the shift
lever in Park (P). After the warning message clears, you can continue
to drive the vehicle with caution.

Dual Clutch Transmission Characteristics
The EcoShift Dual Clutch Transmission behaves just like a manual
transmission, but with the added convenience of an automatic
transmission.
- The dual clutch transmission eliminates the need for a torque
converter. This direct drive structure and the ability to pre-select the
upshift gear allows shifts to be quick and responsive with constant
power through the shifts.
- The EcoShift Dual Clutch Transmission comes equipped with Hillstart
Assist Control. If you remove your foot from the brake pedal while
you are stopped on a hill, the vehicle will remain stationary for
approximately 2 seconds to prevent the vehicle from rolling
backwards. If you press the accelerator pedal during the two-second
period, the vehicle will accelerate. If you wait for over two seconds,
the vehicle will enter into creep mode and may roll backwards if the
hill is steep.
- Always come to a complete stop before shifting into Park (P), Drive
(D), or Reverse (R).
