Grade Assist - If Equipped
E224429
Press the grade assist button to activate
grade assist. The grade assist lamp
appears in the instrument cluster when the
system is active. Press the button again
to switch it off.
Grade assist:
• Provides additional grade braking with
a combination of engine motoring and
high-voltage battery charging to help
maintain vehicle speed when
descending a grade.
• As your vehicle determines the amount
of engine motoring and high-voltage
battery charging, you may notice the
engine speed increasing and
decreasing to help maintain your
vehicle speed when descending a
grade.
• The grade assist lamp in the instrument
cluster is illuminated.
Sport (S) (If Equipped)
Putting the vehicle in sport (S):
• Provides additional engine braking and
extends lower gear operation to
enhance performance for uphill climbs,
hilly terrain or mountainous areas. This
increases engine RPM during engine
braking.
• Provides additional lower gear
operation through the automatic
transmission shift strategy.
• Provides gear selection more quickly
and at higher engine speeds.
Low (L) (If Equipped)
• Provides maximum engine braking.
• The transmission may be shifted into
low (L) at any vehicle speed.
• Is not intended for use under extended
or normal driving conditions and results
in lower fuel economy.
SelectShift™ Automatic
Transmission (If Equipped)
Your vehicle is equipped with a SelectShift
Automatic transmission. The SelectShift
Automatic transmission gives you the
ability to change gears up or down, without
a clutch as desired.
In order to prevent the engine from running
at too low an RPM, which may cause it to
stall, SelectShift still automatically makes
some downshifts if it has determined that
you have not downshifted in time.
Although SelectShift makes some
downshifts for you, it still allows you to
downshift at any time as long as the
SelectShift determines that damage to
the engine does not occur from
over-revving.
Note: Engine damage may occur if you
maintain excessive engine revving without
shifting.
