This will force a downshift from the current gear,
for gears 3 through 6.
2. Press the (+) plus or (−) minus button on the left
side of the steering wheel, to select the desired
range of gears for current driving conditions.When in the M (Manual Mode) a number will display
next to the M, indicating the maximum available gear.
