released, but the brake warning
lamp remains illuminated, the brakes
may not be working properly. See your
authorized dealer.
Note: See your authorized dealer as
soon as possible if this procedure is
used.
Note: For some markets this feature
is disabled.
Note: This feature will only function if

electrical malfunction or if your
vehicle has a dead battery.

damage the media hub.

brake shift interlock switch. The
shift buttons on the instrument
panel will flash when your vehicle
is in override mode.

press the N (Neutral button) to
shift from park.

possible).
7. Release the parking brake.
Automatic Transmission
Adaptive Learning
This feature increases durability and
provides consistent shift feel over the
life of your vehicle. A new vehicle or
transmission may have firm or soft
shifts. This operation will not affect
function or durability of your
transmission and is normal. Over time,
the adaptive learning process will fully
update transmission operation.
Additionally, the strategy must be
relearned whenever the battery is
disconnected or a new battery is
installed.
