If the car speed slows to below the
redline of the selected lower gear
position while the indicator is
flashing, the transmission will
downshift and the display will show
the selected lower gear.
If the transmission temperature is
below 14 °F ( 10 °C), you may not
be able to use the Sequential
SportShift mode.
These positions
are similar to D , except when you
select the D position, only the first
four gears are selected. When you
select D , only the first three gears
are selected. D can also keep the
transmission from cycling between
fourth and fifth gears in stop-and-go
driving, and D can keep the
transmission from cycling between
third and fourth gears.
Use D when towing a trailer in hilly
terrain, or to provide engine braking
when going down a steep hill. D
gives you more power and increased
engine braking.
The table shows the speed ranges
for upshifting and downshifting.
