Heated Mirrors
•The mirrors are heated to melt frost or ice.This feature is activated whenever you
turn on the rear window defroster.
REAR PARK ASSIST
If an object is detected behind the rear bumper while the vehicle is in REVERSE, a visual
warning will display in the instrument cluster and an audible tone will sound.The audible
tone rate will change depending on the distance of the object, getting faster as the object
gets closer to the bumper.The audible tone will become continuous when the distance
between the vehicle and the obstacle is less than 12 inches (30 cm).
POWER SUNROOF
The sunroof has two glass panels (the front one is operational and the rear one fixed)
and is equipped with an electrically operated sun blind.
The power sunroof and the power sun blind can be operated only with the ignition key
turned to the ON/RUN position.
The power sunroof and power sun blind switches are located in the overhead console.
WARNING!
•Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with access to an unlocked vehicle.
Never leave the Key Fob in or near the vehicle or in a location accessible to chil-
dren.Occupants, particularly unattended children, can become entrapped by the
power sunroof while operating the power sunroof switch.Such entrapment may
result in serious injury or death.
•In a collision, there is greater risk of being thrown from a vehicle with an open
sunroof.You could also be seriously injured or killed.Always fasten your seat belt
properly and make sure all passengers are properly secured too.
•Do not allow small children to operate the sunroof.Never allow your fingers,
other body parts, or any object to project through the sunroof opening.Injury
may result.
To Open
•Pull the power sunroof switch for approximately one second and the sunroof will stop
at the vented position.Pull the power sunroof switch a second time for approximately
one second and release, the sunroof will open fully, then stop automatically.This is
called “Express Open”.
NOTE:
During Express Open operation, any movement of the sunroof switch will stop the sun-
roof.

To Close
•With the sunroof in the full open position, pull and hold the power sunroof switch for
approximately one second.
NOTE:
During Express close any movement of the sunroof switch will stop the sunroof.
Wind Buffeting
Wind buffeting can be described as the perception of pressure on the ears or a
helicopter-type sound in the ears.Your vehicle may exhibit wind buffeting with the win-
dows down, or the sunroof (if equipped) in certain open or partially open positions.This
is a normal occurrence and can be minimized.If the buffeting occurs with the rear win-
dows open, open the front and rear windows together to minimize the buffeting.If the
buffeting occurs with the sunroof open, adjust the sunroof opening to minimize the buf-
feting or open any window.
Power Sun Blind
•Pull the power sun blind switch and the blind will move towards the rear part of the
car, until it is fully open.
With the blind fully open pull the power sun blind switch and the blind will move to-
wards the front part of the car, until it is fully closed.
NOTE:
During the automatic opening and closing stages, if the power sun blind switch is pulled
again it will stop the blind movement.
EURO TWIN CLUTCH SIX-SPEED TRANSMISSION
•This vehicle may be equipped with a fuel efficient Euro Twin Clutch Six Speed Transmis-
sion.This transmission offers a sportier driving experience with faster AutoStick shifting.
•During low-speed driving conditions in first gear, vehicle momentum changes may feel
exaggerated in response to changes in accelerator pedal position.This behavior is nor-
mal and is similar to vehicles equipped with a manual transmission.
NOTE:
•Very aggressive driving may result in some clutch odor similar to a manual transmission.
An active warning message will display in the Instrument Cluster if cool down actions
are needed.
•The first few shifts on a new vehicle may be somewhat abrupt.This is a normal condi-
tion, and precision shifts will develop within a few hundred miles (kilometers).
•At low speeds you may hear mechanical noises similar to a manual transmission as the
transmission changes gears.These noises are normal and will not damage the transmission.
•Before and after the engine is started, you may hear a hydraulic pump for a short pe-
riod of time.This noise is normal and will not damage the transmission.

Shifting The Transmission
•The transmission shift lever position (PRND) is displayed both on the shift lever and in
the Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC).
•To drive, depress the brake pedal, press the button on the front of the shift lever and
move the shift lever from PARK or NEUTRAL to the DRIVE position.
•Manual shifts can also be made using the AutoStick shift control.
•This transmission is programmed to prevent shifting from REVERSE to DRIVE or
DRIVE to REVERSE, if vehicle speed is above 6 mph (10 km/h).This safety feature
helps protect your transmission from damage.
NOTE:
•When stopped on an incline, it is recommended that you always hold the vehicle in
place using the brakes.On steep inclines, Hill Start Assist (HSA) will temporarily hold
the car in position when the brake pedal is released.If the accelerator pedal is not
applied after a short time, the car will roll back.Either reapply the brake (to hold the
vehicle) or press the accelerator to climb the hill.
•During acceleration, gear changes will feel smooth compared to a vehicle with a tradi-
tional manual transmission.This is a benefit of the Euro Twin Clutch Transmission de-
sign that avoids power loss during up-shifts.
Instrument Cluster Messages
Messages will be displayed in the instrument cluster to alert the driver when certain un-
usual conditions occur.These messages are described below.

MESSAGE DESCRIPTION
SHIFT TO NEUTRAL – THEN DRIVE ORREVERSEThe transmission has shifted itself intoNEUTRAL (due to a fault condition, oroverheat due to excessive idling whenstopped in DRIVE with the brakes re-leased), but the shift lever remains in gear.Shift into NEUTRAL and then back intogear for continued driving.If the transmis-sion will not re-engage, see your autho-rized dealer.
AUTOMATIC UNAVAILABLE The transmission is unable to shift itselfautomatically, due to a fault condition.Usethe AutoStick mode to shift the transmis-sion manually.See your authorized dealerfor diagnosis and service.
REDUCE GEAR CHANGES The transmission pump is overheating.InAutoStick mode, try to drive in one spe-cific gear as much as possible, avoiding fre-quent gear changes.In DRIVE, the trans-mission will automatically modify its shiftschedule to reduce the number of shifts.
TRANSMISSION GETTING HOT PRESSBRAKEThe transmission driving clutch is overheat-ing, usually due to repeated launches instop-and-go traffic.Pull over and allow thetransmission to cool in NEUTRAL until“TRANS.COOL READY TO DRIVE” isdisplayed.
