SelectShift Automatic
Transmission
Your vehicle is equipped with a SelectShift
Automatic transmission, which gives you
the ability to change gears up or down as
desired.
In order to prevent the engine from running
at too low an RPM, which may cause it to
stall, SelectShift still automatically makes
some downshifts if it has determined that
you have not downshifted in time.
Although SelectShift makes some
downshifts for you, it still allows you to
downshift at any time as long as
SelectShift determines that no damage
occurs to the engine from over-revving.
Note: Engine damage may occur if you
maintain excessive engine revving without
shifting.
SelectShift does not automatically upshift,
even if the engine is approaching the RPM
limit. It must be shifted manually by use of
the upshift (+) paddle. When using Manual
(M) shift mode, pay attention to the shift
indicator on the top rim of the steering
wheel and the RPM indicator in the
instrument cluster.
Use the paddles on the steering wheel
to shift.
Pull the right paddle (+) to upshift.
Pull the left paddle () to downshift.
