Automatic Transmission
StabiliTrak®/Traction Control Systems
The traction control system limits wheelspin and the StabiliTrak electronic stability con-trol system assists with directional control of the vehicle in difficult driving conditions. Both
systems turn on automatically every time the vehicle is started.
Driver Shift Control
Driver Shift Control allows the driver to shift gears manually. This feature can be used to drive the vehicle in a sportier manner or to downshift when driving on a downhill grade to provide engine braking.
Move the shift lever to the left of the Drive (D) position. Tap the shift lever forward (+) to upshift or rearward to downshift (–). The currently selected gear will be displayed on the instru-ment cluster.
If vehicle speed is too high or too low for the requested gear, the shift will not occur. When coming to a stop, the transmission will automatically downshift.
See Driving and Operating in your Owner Manual.

Turn off traction control if the vehicle is stuck and rocking the vehicle is required.
Press the StabiliTrak/Traction Control button on the top center of the instrument panel to turn the system on/off. The Traction Control Off light will illuminate on the instrument cluster when the system is off.

Driver Assistance Systems
The driver assistance systems use advanced technologies to help avoid collisions by
providing visual and audible alerts under some imminent collision conditions.
Forward Collision AlertF – When approaching a vehicle directly ahead too quickly, the system flashes a visual alert on the wind-shield and sounds an audible tone.
To set the alert timing to Far, Medium, or Near, press the Collision Alert button or the Follow Distance Gap buttonF on the left side of the steering wheel.
Lane Departure WarningF – When crossing a detected lane marking without using a turn signal, the system flashes a visual alert and sounds an
audible tone. The system operates at speeds of 35 mph or greater.
To turn the system on or off, press the Lane Departure Warning button on the top center of the instrument panel.
Rear Parking AssistF – During low-speed parking maneuvers, the Rear Parking Assist
system displays a caution symbol on the Rear Vision Camera when an object is detected. One beep sounds when an object is first detected and five beeps sound when an object is very close.
To turn the system on or off, press the Parking Assist button on the top center of the instrument panel.
Rear Cross Traffic AlertF – During low-speed maneuvers when backing up, the system warns of traffic coming from the left or right by displaying a visual alert on the Rear Vision Camera and sounding an audible tone.
To turn the alerts on or off, go to Collision/Detection Systems > Rear Cross Traffic Alert in the Vehicle Settings menu.
Side Blind Zone Alert/Lane Change AlertF – While driving, the Side Blind Zone Alert/Lane Change Alert displays a warning
symbol on the left or right side mirror when a vehicle is detected in that side blind zone area or rapidly approaching that side blind zone area. The warning symbol flashes if a turn signal is activated when a vehicle has been detected.
To turn the system on or off, go to Collision/Detection Systems > Lane Change Alert in the Vehicle Settings menu.
