Second (2)
Transmission operates in second (2) gear
only. Use second (2) gear to start-up on
slippery roads.
First (1)
•
Transmission operates in first (1) gear
only.
• Provides maximum engine braking.
• Allows upshifts by moving gearshift lever.
• Will not downshift into first (1) gear at high
speeds; allows for first (1) gear when
vehicle reaches slower speeds.
Tow/Haul Mode To activate tow/haul, press the
button on the gearshift lever once.
The TOW HAUL indicator light will
illuminate in the instrument cluster. The tow/haul feature:
•
Delays upshifts to reduce the frequency
of transmission shifting.
• Provides engine braking in all forward
gears, which will slow your vehicle and
assist you in controlling your vehicle
when descending a grade.
• Depending on driving conditions and
load conditions, may downshift the
transmission, slow your vehicle and
control your vehicle speed when
descending a hill, without pressing the
accelerator pedal. The amount of
downshift braking provided will vary
based upon the amount the brake pedal
is pressed.
The tow/haul feature improves transmission
operation when towing a trailer or a heavy
load. All transmission gear ranges are
available when using tow/haul.
To deactivate the tow/haul feature and return
to normal driving mode, press the button on
the gearshift lever twice. The TOW HAUL
light will deactivate. Tow/haul will also
deactivate when you power down your
vehicle. WARNING
Do not use the tow/haul feature when
driving in icy or slippery conditions as
the increased engine braking can cause the
rear wheels to slide and your vehicle to
swing around with the possible loss of
vehicle control. Forced Downshifts
•
Allowed in drive (D) with the tow/haul
feature on or off.
• Press the accelerator to the floor.
• Allows transmission to select an
appropriate gear.
Automatic Transmission Adaptive Learning
This feature may increase durability and
provide consistent shift feel over the life of
your vehicle. A new vehicle or transmission
may have firm shifts, soft shifts or both. This
operation is considered normal and will not
affect function or durability of the
transmission. Over time, the adaptive
learning process will fully update
transmission operation.

The system uses two types of guides to help
you see what is behind your vehicle:
•
Fixed guidelines: Show the actual path
your vehicle is moving in while reversing
in a straight line. This can be helpful
when backing into a parking space or
aligning your vehicle with another object
behind you.
• Centerline: Helps align the center of your
vehicle with an object (for example, a
trailer).
Note: The image may remain on
momentarily when you shift the transmission
out of reverse (R). If your vehicle speed
reaches 6 mph (10 km/h) or 10 seconds
elapse and the image remains on, have your
system inspected by an authorized dealer.
Note: When towing, the camera only sees
what you are towing behind your vehicle.
This might not provide adequate coverage
as it usually provides in normal operation
and you might not see some objects. In some
vehicles, the guidelines may disappear once
you engage the trailer tow connector. The camera may not operate correctly under
the following conditions:
•
Nighttime or dark areas if one or both
reverse lamps are not operating.
• Mud, water or debris obstructs the
camera's view. Clean the lens with a soft,
lint-free cloth and non-abrasive cleaner.
• The camera is misaligned due to damage
to the rear of your vehicle.
Camera Guidelines
Note: Fixed guidelines are only available
when the transmission is in reverse (R).
Note: The centerline is only available if fixed
guidelines are on. Rear bumper
