SPORT MODE — IF
EQUIPPED
The SPORT mode increases steering feed-
back to the driver with slight increase in
ef
fort and changes the transmission shift
schedules for more aggressive shifting. This
driving mode is useful while driving on twisty
roads where more steering precision is
desired in spirited cornering.
To activate SPORT mode, toggle the SPORT
Mo
de button forward and hold for approxi-
mately two seconds. You will see “Sport”
i
l
luminate in the Instrument Panel cluster.

SPEED CONTROL
Speed Control
This is an electronically controlled driving
assistance feature that allows the desired
vehicle speed to be maintained, without
having to press the accelerator pedal.
This feature can be used at a speed above
25
mph (40 km/h) on long stretches of dry,
st
raight roads with few variations, such as
highways.
It is therefore not recommended to use this
fe
ature on city roads with traffic, or in areas
where the vehicle will stop frequently.
