3 - 4 40 mph (64 km/h)
4 - 5 45 mph (72 km/h)
5 - 6 50 mph (80 km/h)
The instrument cluster will display your currently selected gear.
SelectShift will automatically make some downshifts for you if it has
determined that you have not downshifted in time. Although SelectShift
will make some downshifts for you, it will still allow you to downshift at
any time as long as SelectShift determines that the engine will not be
damaged from over-revving.
Note: If manual control is no longer desired, return the gear shift lever
from S (Sport) to D (Drive).
Note: Engine damage may occur if excessive engine revving is held
without shifting.
Automatic Transmission Adaptive Learning
This feature is designed to increase durability and provide consistent
shift feel over the life of the vehicle. A new vehicle or transmission may
have firm shifts, soft shifts or both. This operation is considered normal
and will not affect function or durability of the transmission. Over time,
the adaptive learning process will fully update transmission operation.
Additionally, whenever the battery is disconnected or a new battery
installed, the strategy must be relearned.
