to allow a return to the requested speed. This is done to
prevent transmission damage due to overheating. If the
high speed is maintained, the overheating may reoccur,
as before, in a cyclic fashion.
LOW – IF EQUIPPED
This range should be used for engine braking when
descending very steep grades. In this range, the trans-
mission will downshift for maximum engine braking,
and upshifts will occur only to prevent engine overspeed.
AUTOSTICK
姞
Continuously Variable Automatic Transmission
(CVT)
AutoStick
威
is a driver-interactive transmission feature
providing six manually selectable gear ratios, giving you
more control of the vehicle. AutoStick
威
allows you to
maximize engine braking, eliminate undesirable upshifts
and downshifts, and improve overall vehicle perfor-
mance. This system can also provide you with more
control during passing, city driving, cold slippery condi-
tions, mountain driving, trailer towing, and many other
situations.
Operation
NOTE:
AutoStick
威
is not available until the CVT warms
up in cold weather.
When the shift lever is in the DRIVE position, AutoStick
威
is activated by moving the shift lever side-to-side. Mov-
ing the shift lever to the right (+) will activate AutoStick
威
and shift up to the next higher manual ratio, unless you
are already operating in or near Overdrive, in which case
sixth gear ratio will be selected. In like manner, moving
the shift lever to the left (-) will activate AutoStick
威
and
shift to the next lower manual ratio. The manually-
selected gear will be displayed in the instrument cluster.
