downshifts that will result in an appropriate
combination of vehicle speed and engine rpm.
For instance, downshifts that would result in
excessive engine speed will not be executed.
The desired gear will appear briefly in the
instrument cluster, followed by the actual gear.
Shifting gears via the shift paddles* on
the steering wheel
The shift paddles allow you to shift gears
quickly since your hands can remain on the
steering wheel.

steering wheel to shift gears while in auto-
matic mode, the transmission automatically
switches to manual mode.
> If you do not use the shift paddles for a cer-

the transmission automatically switches
back to automatic mode.
If the selector lever is in the M/S gear
plane, manual mode remains active.
> To shift up, pull one of the shift paddles.
> To shift down, press one of the shift pad-
dles.
