SelectShift Automatic Transmission
Your vehicle is equipped with a SelectShift
Automatic transmission. The SelectShift
Automatic transmission gives you the ability
to change gears up or down, without a
clutch, as desired.
In order to prevent the engine from running
at too low of 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 the SelectShift determines that
damage to the engine does not occur 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 pressing
the + paddle.
Pull the + paddle on the steering wheel to
activate SelectShift.
Pull the right paddle (+) to upshift.
Pull the left paddle () to downshift.

SelectShift in drive (D):
Provides a temporary manual mode for
performing more demanding maneuvers
where extra control of gear selection is
required (for example, when towing, downhill
driving or overtaking). This mode holds a
selected gear for a temporary period of time
dependent on driver inputs (for example,
steering or accelerator pedal input).
In SelectShift mode, the instrument cluster
displays your currently selected gear. If you
request a gear, but it is not available due to
vehicle conditions, low speed, too high
engine speed for requested gear selection,
the current gear briefly flashes.
Note: At full accelerator pedal travel, the
transmission downshifts for maximum
performance.
Note: In low traction conditions, you can pull
away in second gear using SelectShift. To
perform this operation, select drive (D) and
press the + paddle until 2 is displayed on the
cluster. Your vehicle is now ready to move
in 2nd gear.
