USING PROGRESSIVE RANGE
SELECTION

ability to lock out gears from the automatic
shifting range. This could provide you with
an improved driving experience by reducing
transmission shifts, for example, in slippery
conditions or steep slopes.
With the transmission in drive (D), press
the - button to begin to switch the feature
on.
Press the - button again to continue locking
out higher gears. Beginning with the highest
gear, the instrument cluster will indicate
the current gear and highest gear available.
For example, press the - button twice to
lock out 10th and 9th gears.

shifts within the gear range you select.
