and extends lower gear operation
to enhance performance for uphill

areas. This will increase engine
RPM during engine braking.

operation through the automatic
transmission shift strategy.
• Gears are selected more quickly
and at higher engine speeds.

Your SelectShift automatic

manually change gears if you'd like.
Paddle Shifters
The paddle shifters allow you to shift
gears quickly, without taking your
hands off the steering wheel.

control until the vehicle is put in
another gear.
• Pull the right paddle (+) to upshift.
