•
Heavily pressing the accelerator pedal will generate an
automatic downshift (for improved acceleration)
when reasonable.
•
You can start out in first or second gear. Tapping (+) (at
a stop) will allow starting in second gear. Starting out
in second gear is helpful in snowy or icy conditions.
•
The system will ignore attempts to upshift at too low
of a vehicle speed.
•
Avoid using speed control when AutoStick威 is en-
gaged.
•
Transmission shifting will be more noticeable when
AutoStick威 is engaged.
To disengage AutoStick威 mode, hold the shift lever to the
right or press and hold the (+) shift paddle (if equipped)
until “D” is once again displayed in the instrument
cluster. You can shift in or out of the AutoStick威 mode at
any time without taking your foot off the accelerator
pedal.
WARNING!
Do not downshift for additional engine braking on a
slippery surface. The drive wheels could lose their
grip and the vehicle could skid, causing a collision or
personal injury.
