SelectShift in drive (D):
Provides a temporary manual mode for
performing more demanding maneuvers
where extra control of gear selection is
required (for example, when towing, downhill
driving or overtaking). This mode holds a
selected gear for a temporary period of time
dependent on driver inputs (for example,
steering or accelerator pedal input).
In SelectShift mode, the instrument cluster
displays your currently selected gear. If you
request a gear, but it is not available due to
vehicle conditions, low speed, too high
engine speed for requested gear selection,
the current gear briefly flashes.
Note:
At full accelerator pedal travel, the
transmission downshifts for maximum
performance. Note:
In low traction conditions, you can pull
away in second gear using SelectShift. To
perform this operation, select drive (D) and
press the (+) paddle until 2 is displayed on
the cluster. Your vehicle is now ready to
move in 2nd gear.
Manual Park Release WARNING: When doing this
procedure, you need to take the
transmission out of park (P) which means
your vehicle can roll freely. To avoid
unwanted vehicle movement, always fully

appropriate. WARNING:
If the parking brake is
fully released, but the brake warning lamp
remains illuminated, the brakes may not
be working properly. Have your vehicle
checked as soon as possible. WARNING: Do not drive your vehicle
until you verify that the stoplamps are
working.
Use the manual park release to move your
transmission from the park (P) position in the
event of an electrical malfunction or
emergency.
