SelectShift will automatically make some downshifts for you if it has
determined that you have not downshifted in time. Although SelectShift
will make some downshifts for you, it will still allow you to downshift at
any time as long as SelectShift determines that the engine will not be
damaged from over-revving.
Note:
If manual control is no longer desired, return the gear shift lever
from S (Sport) to D (Drive).
Note:
Engine damage may occur if excessive engine revving is held
without shifting.
