For Some Models

1. Push the lock release button on the
gear selector while also pushing down
on the Shift Lock Override button.
2. Move the gear selector.
3. Take the vehicle to your authorized
dealer.
Manual Shift Mode
The manual shift mode gives you the
feel of driving a manual transmission
vehicle by allowing you to operate the
gear selector manually.
This allows you to control engine rpm
and torque to the drive wheels much
like a manual transmission when more
control is desired.
To change to MANUAL (M) shift mode,
shift the gear selector from DRIVE (D) to
MANUAL (M). To return to automatic
shift mode, shift the gear selector from
MANUAL (M) to DRIVE (D).
You can shift between DRIVE (D) and
MANUAL (M) mode at any time, without
taking your foot off the accelerator.
Note:
If you change to manual shift mode
when the vehicle is stopped, the gear
will shift to M1.
If you change to manual shift mode
while the vehicle is moving it will remain
in the current gear until a manual shift
request is made.
Indicators
Manual Shift Mode Indication
In manual shift mode, the “M” of the
shift position indication in the
instrument panel illuminates.
Gear Position Indication
The numeral for the selected gear
illuminates.
Manually Shifting Up/Down
To shift up to a higher gear, tap the
gear selector rearward once (or tap the
[+] shift paddle on the steering wheel, if
equipped).
To shift down to a lower gear, tap the
gear selector forward once (or tap the
[-] shift paddle on the steering wheel, if
equipped).
Note:
If a requested downshift would
cause the engine to over-speed, that
shift will not occur.
The system will ignore attempts to
upshift at too low of a vehicle speed.
