AUTOSTICKT — IF EQUIPPED
AutoStickt is a driver-interactive transaxle that offers six
manual ratio changes to provide you with more control.
AutoStickt allows you to maximize engine braking,
eliminate undesirable upshifts and downshifts, and im-
prove overall vehicle performance. This system can also
provide you with more control during passing, city
driving, cold slippery conditions, mountain driving,
trailer towing, and many other situations.
AutoStickT Operation
By placing the gear selector lever one shift-level below
the DRIVE position, it can be moved from side to side.
This allows the driver to select a higher or lower range of
gears. Moving the selector lever to the Left (-) triggers a
downshift and to the Right (+) an upshift. The gear
position will display in the instrument cluster on the
transaxle range indicator.
NOTE: In Autostickt mode, the transaxle will only shift
up or down when the driver moves the selector lever to
the Right (+) or Left (-).
AutoStickt is deactivated when the gear selector lever is
shifted from the AutoStick (+/-) position into the DRIVE
position.
AutoStickT General Information

You can start out in first or second gear. The system

speed.
•
The transmission will automatically downshift to first
gear when coming to a stop.
•
Starting out in second gear is helpful in snowy or icy
conditions.
•
Avoid using speed control when Autostickt is en-
gaged.
