TOW/HAUL MODE

• When driving in hilly areas, towing a trailer, carrying a heavy load, etc., and

frequent transmission shifting occurs, press the TOW/HAUL switch to select
TOW/HAUL mode. This will improve performance and reduce the potential for
transmission overheating or failure due to excessive shifting. When operating
in TOW/HAUL mode, transmission upshifts are delayed, and the transmission
will automatically downshift (for engine braking) during steady braking
maneuvers.

• The “TOW/HAUL Indicator Light” will illuminate in the instrument cluster to

indicate that TOW/HAUL mode has been activated. Pressing the switch a
second time restores normal operation. If the TOW/HAUL mode is desired, the
switch must be pressed each time the engine is started.
