SelectShift™ Automatic Transmission
Your vehicle has a SelectShift Automatic
transmission. The SelectShift Automatic
transmission gives you the ability to change
gears up or down, without a clutch, as
desired.
In order to prevent the engine from running
at too low of an RPM, which may cause it to
stall, SelectShift still automatically makes
some downshifts if it has determined that
you have not downshifted in time. Although
SelectShift makes some downshifts for you,
it still allows you to downshift at any time as
long as the SelectShift determines that
damage to the engine does not occur from
over-revving.
Note:
Engine damage may occur if you
maintain excessive engine revving without
shifting.
SelectShift does not automatically upshift,
even if the engine is approaching the RPM
limit. Shift manually by pressing the + paddle.
Pull the + paddle on the steering wheel to
activate SelectShift. •
Pull the right paddle (+) to upshift.
• Pull the left paddle (–) to downshift. SelectShift in drive (D):
Provides a temporary manual mode for
performing more demanding maneuvers
where you require extra control of gear
selection, 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 displays on the
cluster. Your vehicle is now ready to move
in 2nd gear.

LIMITED SLIP DIFFERENTIAL (IF
EQUIPPED)
The Electronic Limited Slip Differential (eLSD)
system directs torque, enabling the vehicle
to drive over terrain and road conditions that
a conventional axle cannot. The system is
active at all times and requires no input from
the driver.
Note: If your vehicle is not at optimal
operating conditions or a system fault is
present, a warning may be displayed in the
instrument cluster. Depending on the
warning, your vehicle may need to be
serviced. You can find more information
regarding the system information messages
in the Information Displays chapter.
See
Information Messages (page 139).
Spare Tire
If your vehicle has an Electronic Limited Slip
Differential, do not use a spare tire of a
different size than the tire provided. If a spare
tire is installed, a message may appear,
indicating the system has disabled
automatically or reduced function to prevent system overheat and damage. It is
recommended to reinstall the repaired or
replaced road tire as soon as possible. When
the road tire is replaced, the system will
resume normal operation on the next key
cycle.
Trailer Towing
The Electronic Limited Slip Differential
enhances vehicle stability during trailer tow
operation. During high demand trailering
events, such as steep slopes, high speeds
or with a spare tire, the system may provide
a warning in the instrument cluster and
reduce function or enter a temporarily
disabled state. To resume normal function,
stop the vehicle in a safe location and allow
the unit to adequately cool. Once the system
has reached normal operating temperatures,
system function will be restored and the
Electronic Limited Slip Differential Restored
message will be displayed.

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
The traction control system helps avoid drive
wheel spin and loss of traction.
If your vehicle begins to slide, the system
applies the brakes to individual wheels and,
when needed, reduces engine power at the
same time. If the wheels spin when
accelerating on slippery or loose surfaces,
the system reduces engine power in order
to increase traction.
USING TRACTION CONTROL
WARNING: The stability and traction
control light illuminates steadily if the
system detects a failure. Make sure you
did not manually disable the traction
control system using the information
display controls or the switch. If the stability
control and traction control light is still illuminating steadily, have the system
serviced by an authorized dealer
immediately. Operating your vehicle with
the traction control disabled could lead to
an increased risk of loss of vehicle control,
vehicle rollover, personal injury and death.
The system automatically turns on each time
you switch the ignition on.
If your vehicle is stuck in mud or snow,
switching traction control off may be
beneficial as this allows the wheels to spin.
Note: When you switch traction control off,
stability control remains fully active.
Switching the System On and Off
You can switch traction control on and off
through the information display controls. See
General Information
(page 134).
When you switch the system off, a message
and an illuminated icon appear on the
instrument cluster.
Switch traction control on again to return the
system to normal operations. Note:
Your vehicle may have MyKey
restrictions regarding this feature.
See
Principle of Operation (page 79).
System Indicator Lights and Messages The stability and traction control
light temporarily illuminates on
engine start-up and flashes:
• When a driving condition activates either
of the systems.
• If a problem occurs in either of the
systems. The stability and traction control
off light temporarily illuminates on
engine start-up and stays on when
you switch the traction control system off.
