AutoStick Operation
When the gear selector is in the DRIVE position, the
transmission will operate automatically, shifting between
the five available gears. To activate AutoStick mode, push
and release the AUTOSTICK ON/OFF switch (on the end
of the gear selector) at any time while in the DRIVE
position. When AutoStick is active, the current transmis-
sion gear is displayed in the instrument cluster.
In AutoStick mode, pushing the AUTOSTICK up (+) or
down (-) switch allows you to select a higher or lower
gear. Pushing the bottom of the switch (-) triggers a
downshift (unless it would cause engine overspeeding),
and pushing the top of the switch (+) triggers an upshift
(unless it would cause engine lugging). The transmission
will remain in the current gear until another upshift or
downshift is chosen, except as described below.
•
The transmission will automatically downshift as the
vehicle slows (to prevent engine lugging) and will
display the current gear.
•
The transmission will automatically downshift to first
gear when coming to a stop. After a stop, the driver
should manually upshift (+) the transmission as the
vehicle is accelerated.
•
You can start out, from a stop, in first or second gear.
Tapping (+) (at a stop) will allow starting in second
gear. Starting out in second gear can be helpful in
snowy or icy conditions.
•
In models with V6 engine, if the accelerator is fully
depressed, the transmission will downshift when pos-
sible (based on vehicle speed and gear).
•
The transmission will automatically upshift near max
engine speed, if the higher gear will provide greater
acceleration.
