MANUALLY SHIFTING GEARS
Shifting Using the Buttons on the
Selector Lever
Pressing the manual (M) button on the
shifter allows you to select the gear you
prefer. Only the current gear displays. Press
the + button to upshift or the button to
downshift. Return the transmission to a
different gearshift position to deactivate
manual control or press manual (M).
Your vehicle has a SelectShift Automatic
transmission gearshift lever. This gives you
the ability to change gears up or down,
without a clutch, as preferred.
Note: To prevent the engine from running
at too low an RPM, which could cause it to
stall, SelectShift still makes some
downshifts if it determines that you have
not downshifted in time. Although
SelectShift makes some downshifts for you,
it still allows you to downshift at any time
if it determines that damage to the engine
from over-revving does not occur.
Note: SelectShift does not automatically
upshift, even if the engine is approaching
the RPM limit. Shift manually by pressing
the + button.
Note: Engine damage could occur if you
maintain excessive engine revving without
shifting.
