Beginning With The Ignition Switch In The OFF Position:
1. Push the ENGINE START/STOP button once to cycle the ignition to the ACC position.
2. Push the ENGINE START/STOP button a second time to cycle the ignition to the
ON/RUN position.
3. Push the ENGINE START/STOP button a third time to return the ignition to the OFF
position.
NOTE:
If the ignition is left in the ACC or ON/RUN
(engine not running) position and the trans-
mission is in PARK, the system will auto-
matically time out after 30 minutes of inac-
tivity, and the ignition is returned to the OFF
position.
TRUNK LOCK AND RELEASE

Trunk Emergency Release
As a security measure, a Trunk Internal
Emergency Release lever is built into the
trunk latching mechanism. In the event of
an individual being locked inside the trunk,
the trunk can be simply opened by pulling
on the glow-in-the-dark handle attached to
the trunk latching mechanism.
WARNING!
Do not allow children to have access to the trunk, either by climbing into the trunk from
outside, or through the inside of the vehicle. Always close the trunk lid when your
vehicle is unattended. Once in the trunk, young children may not be able to escape,
even if they entered through the rear seat. If trapped in the trunk, children can die from
suffocation or heat stroke.
VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM
The Vehicle Security Alarm monitors the vehicle doors for unauthorized entry and the
Keyless Enter-N-Go™ START/STOP button for unauthorized operation. While the Vehicle
Security Alarm is armed, interior switches for door locks and decklid release are disabled.
If something triggers the alarm, the Vehicle Security Alarm will provide the following
audible and visible signals: the horn will pulse, the park lamps and/or turn signals will
flash, and the Vehicle Security Light in the instrument cluster will flash.
To Arm:
•Push the Keyless Enter-N-Go™ START/STOP button until the Driver Information Display
(DID) indicates that the vehicle ignition is “OFF.” Push the power door lock switch while
the door is open, push the Key Fob LOCK button, or with one of the Key Fobs located
outside the vehicle and within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the driver's and passenger front door handles,
push the Keyless Enter-N-Go™ LOCK button located on the door handle.
NOTE:
After pushing the Keyless Enter-N-Go™ LOCK button, you must wait two seconds before
you can lock or unlock the vehicle via the door handle.

EIGHT-SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
The transmission gear range (PRNDM) is displayed both on the shift lever and in the Driver
Information Display (DID).
To s e l e c t a g e a r r a n g e , p r e s s t h e l o c k b u t t o n o n t h e s h i f t l e v e r a n d m o v e t h e l e v e r r e a r w a r d
or forward. You must also press the brake pedal to shift the transmission out of PARK, or
to shift from NEUTRAL into DRIVE or REVERSE when the vehicle is stopped or moving at
low speeds (refer to “Brake/Transmission Shift Interlock System” within the “Starting And
Operating” chapter in your Owner’s Manual on the DVD for further information). Select the
DRIVE range for normal driving.
The electronically-controlled transmission
provides a precise shift schedule. The trans-
mission electronics are self-calibrating;
therefore, the first few shifts on a new vehicle
may be somewhat abrupt. This is a normal
condition, and precision shifts will develop
within a few hundred miles (kilometers).
Only shift from DRIVE to PARK or RE-
VERSE when the accelerator pedal is re-
leased and the vehicle is stopped. Be sure
to keep your foot on the brake pedal when
shifting between these gears.
The transmission shift lever has PARK, RE-
VERSE, NEUTRAL, DRIVE, and MANUAL
(Autostick) shift positions. Manual shifts
can be made using the Autostick shift con-
trol (refer to “AutoStick” in this section for
further information). Toggling the shift lever
forward (-) or rearward (+) while in the
MANUAL (AutoStick) position (beside the DRIVE position) will manually select the
transmission gear, and will display the current gear in the instrument cluster as M1, M2,
M3, etc.
NOTE:
If the shift lever cannot be moved to the PARK, REVERSE, or NEUTRAL position (when
pushed forward) it is probably in the MANUAL (AutoStick, +/-) position (beside the DRIVE
position). In MANUAL (AutoStick) mode, the transmission gear is displayed in the
instrument cluster (as M1, M2, M3, etc.). Move the shift lever to the right (into the DRIVE
[D] position) for access to PARK, REVERSE, and NEUTRAL.
NOTE:
For more information, refer to Automatic Transmission in the Owner’s Manual on your
DVD.

AUTOSTICK/STEERING WHEEL MOUNTED PADDLE SHIFTERS
•AutoStickisadriver-interactivetrans-
mission feature that offers manual gear
shifting to provide you with more control
of the vehicle. AutoStick allows you to
maximize engine braking, and improve
overall vehicle performance.
•This system can also provide you with more
control during passing, city driving, cold
slippery conditions, mountain driving,
trailer towing, and many other situations.
Operation
When the shift lever is in the DRIVE (D) position, the transmission will operate automati-
cally, shifting between the eight available gears. To activate AutoStick, move the shift lever
into the MANUAL (M) position (beside the DRIVE position). The current transmission gear
will be displayed in the instrument cluster, along with a highlighted "M" (Manual)
indication. When the shift lever is in the MANUAL (M) position, tap the shift lever forward
(-) (or tap the (-) shift paddle on the steering wheel, if equipped) to downshift the
transmission to the next lower gear, or tap the lever rearward (+) (or tap the (+) shift
paddle, if equipped) to command an upshift.
NOTE:
Ta p p i n g o n e o f t h e s t e e r i n g w h e e l - m o u n t e d s h i f t p a d d l e s ( + / - ) , i f e q u i p p e d , w h i l e t h e s h i f t
lever is in DRIVE, will activate a temporary AutoStick mode. Tapping (-) to enter AutoStick
mode will downshift the transmission to the next lower gear, while using (+) to enter
AutoStick mode will retain the current gear. The current gear will be displayed in the
instrument cluster, but the "M" will not be highlighted. The transmission will revert back
to normal operation (if the shift lever remains in DRIVE) after a period of time, depending
on accelerator pedal activity.
In AutoStick mode, the transmission will shift up or down when (+/-) is manually selected
by the driver (using the shift lever, or the shift paddles [if equipped]), unless an engine
lugging or overspeed condition would result. It will remain in the selected gear until
another upshift or downshift is chosen, except as described below.
•IntemporaryAutoStickmode(shiftleverinDRIVE),thetransmissionwillautomatically
shift up when maximum engine speed is reached. If the accelerator is fully depressed,
the transmission will downshift when possible (based on current vehicle speed and
gear, except 6.4L models). Lack of accelerator pedal activity will cause the transmis-
sion to revert to automatic operation.
•IfnormalAutoStickmodeisengaged(shiftleverinMANUALposition),manualgear
selection will be maintained until the shift lever is returned to DRIVE, or as described
below. The transmission will not upshift automatically at redline in this mode, nor will
downshifts be obtained if the accelerator pedal is pressed to the floor.
