Downshifting gives you more power
when climbing or provides engine
braking when going down a steep hill.
If you try to manually downshift at a
speed that would cause the engine to
exceed the redline in a lower gear,
the transmission will not downshift.

times, then return to the higher gear.
If the car speed slows to below the
redline of the selected lower gear
position while the indicator is
flashing, the transmission will
downshift and the display will show
the selected lower gear.
The transmission will also shift
automatically as the car comes to a
complete stop. It will downshift to
first gear when the car speed is
under 6 mph (10 km/h).
The transmission may automatically
downshift from the higher gear to
the lower gear under the following
conditions:
