Paddle Shift Automatic Transmission♦StabiliTrak®/Traction Control Systems
The automatic transmission has paddle shifters on the steering wheel and a Manual mode that allow you to shift gears similar to a manual transmission.
Temporary Tap Mode
While in Drive (D), use either paddle behind the steering wheel to temporarily take control of gear selection. Automatic shifting returns if no manual shifts have been made after 10 seconds.
Pull the right paddle to upshift or the left paddle to downshift. The current gear will be displayed on the instrument cluster.
Permanent Tap Mode
Press the M (Manual) button on top of the shift lever to enable the Manual mode. Use the paddles to manually shift the transmission.
If current vehicle speed is too high or too low for the requested gear, the shift will not occur.
See Driving and Operating in your Owner Manual.
Drive Mode Control System
The Drive Mode Control System automatically adjusts steering, automatic transmission and Magnetic Ride Control (if equipped) settings in real time.
Press the MODE button on the center console to select the Tour (default at each ignition cycle), Sport, Snow/Ice, or Track♦ mode.
