Throttle Progression is a preset of
Powertrain and cannot be modified
or changed independently. Transmission Shift Operation
Basic:
.
Transmission upshifts and
downshifts are selected based
on vehicle speed and
accelerator position to optimize
comfort and fuel economy during
mild driving conditions.
Driver Influenced Gear Selection:
. Aggressive driving will influence
both the upshift and downshift
points in all modes. .
Criteria which have influence
are: driving mode, accelerator,
brakes, lateral and longitudinal
loading.
. Changes in gear selection
behavior due to aggressive
driving can include:
‐Downshifting early with higher
rpm’s during aggressive
braking (i.e. entering a corner)
‐ Altering upshifts while
experiencing lateral
acceleration

Brake Response:
This setting adjusts the brake pedal
response. Settings range from a
slower response for more
comfortable driving to the quickest
response for quicker deceleration.
Brake pedal travel decreases and
caliper pressure increases as you
move from Tour to Sport. Track
allows for improved pedal precision
at higher decelerations for high
performance driving.

Front Lift System
A two-position lift actuator (one per
damper) with 35 mm (1.5 in) of
stroke will hydraulically raise the
front of the vehicle to provide
approximately 50 mm (2 in) of increased clearance in
approximately three seconds (height
and time will vary by vehicle). The
Front Lift System will allow you to lift
the front of the vehicle to enter a
driveway, driving over curbs, speed
bumps or onto ramps or a trailer.
To use the Front Lift System, press
the button on the center console to
raise or lower the vehicle. This
feature can be operated at speeds
up to 38 km/h (24 mph) when the
engine is running. The system
functions based on the vehicle’
s
state or operating mode: .
The system will not raise up
when the doors are open.
. The system can be raised or
lowered by the pushbutton,
when the vehicle is in RUN or in
ACC mode.
. If the vehicle is in the raised
position and is driven at speeds
above 38 km/h (24 mph), it will
automatically lower.
. If the vehicle is turned off, it will
automatically lower.
. If a vehicle door is opened
during lowering, the movement
will pause for 15 seconds then
continue to lower, but at a
slower rate.
The front height can be raised
automatically using GPS navigation
in the vehicle. The vehicle will
automatically lift in up to 1,000
programmable locations. Once the
button is pushed, a notification will
appear on the Driver Information
Center (DIC) and ask the driver if
they would like to “Remember”the
location. The driver can select this
function through the steering wheel

controls, seeSteering Wheel
Controls 087. The driver can also
delete stored locations for the
automatic lift. If the vehicle is raised
automatically using GPS, it will
automatically lower once the vehicle
is located about 60 meters (197 feet)
from the programmed location.
Drivers can disable this function by
turning off GPS location through
their vehicle Front Lift System will
still operate, but only by using the
pushbutton command, and the “Auto
Lift Location Remembered”
confirmation message will not
display.
The Front Lift System can also be
used in accessory mode. Put the
vehicle in ACC/ACCESSORY mode,
then press and hold the button on
the center console for 10
consecutive seconds to
automatically raise the vehicle.
The DIC may display the message
“Lift System Unavailable” if the
following occur:
. Any doors are ajar.
. The hood is open. .
The vehicle is moving over
38 km/h (24 mph).
. Too many lift requests within a
short period.
The Front Lift System should not be
used to service the vehicle. Do not
place anything or body parts under
the vehicle while lifted. See
Recommended Fluids and
Lubricants 0295.
Competitive Driving Mode
If equipped, Competitive Driving
Mode, PTM, and Launch Control are
systems designed to allow
increased performance while
accelerating and/or cornering. This
is accomplished by regulating and
optimizing the engine, brakes, and
suspension performance. These
modes are for use at a closed
course race track and are not
intended for use on public roads.
They will not compensate for driver
inexperience or lack of familiarity
with the race track. Drivers who
prefer to allow the system to have
more control of the engine, brakes, and suspension are advised to turn
the normal traction control and
StabiliTrak/ESC systems on.
Competitive Driving Mode
Competitive Driving Mode allows full
engine power while StabiliTrak/ESC
helps maintain directional control of
the vehicle by selective brake
application. In this mode, the TCS is
off and Launch Control is available.
Adjust your driving style to account
for the available engine power. See
“Launch Control”
later in this
section.

Performance Traction
Management (PTM) (if
equipped)
PTM integrates the TCS,
StabiliTrak/ESC, and Magnetic Ride
Control systems to provide
improved and consistent
performance when cornering. The
amount of available engine power is based on the mode selected, track
conditions, driver skill, and the
radius of each corner.
This light is on when the vehicle is
in the PTM Mode. To select this
optional handling mode, the vehicle
mode must be in Track. Then
quickly press
gon the center
console two times. Performance
Traction Wet —ESC On displays in
the DIC.
To experience the performance
benefit of this system, after entering
a curve and at the point where
normal acceleration occurs, fully
press the accelerator pedal. The
PTM system will modify the level of
engine power for a smooth and
consistent corner exit.
The PTM system contains five
modes. These modes are selected
by turning the MODE switch on the center console. Scroll through
modes 1–5 by turning the mode
control dial.
The following is a DIC display
description and the recommended
usage of each mode:
PTM Mode 1
–Wet
. Intended for all driver skill levels.
. Wet or damp conditions only —
not intended for use in heavy
rain or standing water.
. StabiliTrak/ESC is on and
engine power is reduced based
on conditions.
PTM Mode 2 –Dry
