AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
MANUAL MODE
Manual Mode allows the driver to manu-ally select the range of gear positions. 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.
1. Move the shift lever to the Manual (M) position.
2. Press the + (plus) or – (minus) button on the side of the shift lever to upshift or downshift. The current gear will be dis-played on the Driver Information Center.
If vehicle speed is too high or too low for the requested gear, the shif\
t will not occur.
See Driving and Operating in your Owner’s Manual.
TRACTION CONTROL AND STABILITRAK® SYSTEMS
HILL START ASSIST
The traction control system limits wheelspin and the StabiliTrak stabili\
ty control system assists with directional control of the vehicle in difficult driving c\
onditions. Both systems turn on automatically every time the vehicle is started.
Turn off traction control if the vehicle is stuck and rocking the vehicle is required.
Press the Traction Control/ StabiliTrak button on the center of the instrument panel to turn traction control off or back on. The Traction Control Off light will illuminate on the instrument cluster when the system is off.
See Driving and Operating in your Owner’s Manual.
When stopped on a steep hill, Hill Start Assist prevents the vehicle fro\
m rolling before driving off, whether facing uphill or downhill. During the transition be\
tween when the driver releases the brake pedal and starts to accelerate, Hill Start Ass\
ist holds the brake pressure (for up to 2 seconds) to ensure the vehicle doesn’t roll.
Note: Hill Start Assist will not operate if StabiliTrak is disabled.
