The instrument cluster displays your currently
selected gear. If a gear is requested but not
available due to vehicle conditions (low

Note: At full accelerator pedal travel the
transmission will auto downshift to ensure
maximum performance.
Brake-Shift Interlock Override
WARNING: When doing this procedure,
you need to take the transmission out of park
(P) which means your vehicle can roll freely.
To avoid unwanted vehicle movement,
always fully apply the parking brake prior to
doing this procedure. Use wheels chocks if
appropriate.
WARNING: Do not drive your vehicle
until you verify that the stoplamps are
working.
WARNING: If the parking brake is fully
released, but the brake warning lamp
remains illuminated, the brakes may not be
working properly. Have your vehicle checked
as soon as possible.
Note: See your authorized dealer as soon
as possible if this procedure is used.
Note: For some markets this feature is not
available.
Note: This feature only operates if your
12-volt battery has power. If the vehicle
battery voltage is not sufficient, use an
external 12 volt power source (for example,
jumper cables, a battery charger or jump
pack) to operate interlock override switch.
Use the brake-shift interlock override to
move your transmission from the park
position in the event of an electrical
malfunction. If your vehicle has a dead
battery, you need to use an external power
source.
1. Apply the parking brake and turn your
ignition off before performing this
procedure.
