WARNING: Apply the parkingbrake, shift into park (P), switch theignition off and remove the key beforeyou leave your vehicle. Failure to followthis instruction could result in personalinjury or death.
WARNING: Do not apply the brakepedal and accelerator pedalsimultaneously. Applying both pedalssimultaneously for more than a fewseconds limits vehicle performance,which may result in difficulty maintainingspeed in traffic and could lead to seriousinjury.
Understanding the Shift Positionsof Your Automatic Transmission
6-Speed Transmissions
10-Speed Transmissions
Putting your vehicle in or out of gear:
1.Fully press the brake pedal.
2.Move the gearshift lever into thepreferred gear.
3.When you finish driving, come to acomplete stop.
4.Move the gearshift lever and securelylatch it in park (P) or neutral (N).
The instrument cluster displays the currentgear.
Park (P)
If your transmission has a park (P) position,this position locks the transmission andprevents the rear wheels from turning.
Reverse (R)
With the gearshift lever in reverse (R), yourvehicle moves backward. Always come toa complete stop before shifting into andout of reverse (R).
Neutral (N)
With the gearshift lever in neutral (N), youcan start your vehicle and it is free to roll.Hold the brake pedal down when in thisposition.
Drive (D)
Drive (D) is the normal driving position forthe best fuel economy. The overdrivefunction allows automatic upshifts anddownshifts through gears one through six.
Manual (M)
With the gearshift lever in manual (M), thedriver can change gears up or down aspreferred. By moving the gearshift leverfrom drive (D) to manual (M), you nowhave control of selecting the gear youprefer using the buttons on the shift lever.See Understanding Your SelectShiftAutomatic™ Transmission later in thissection.

To return to normal drive (D) position,move the shift lever back from manual (M)to drive (D).
The transmission operates in gears onethrough six.
Second (2)
The transmission operates in second (2)gear only. Use second (2) gear to just starton slippery roads.
First (1)
•The transmission operates in first (1)gear only.
•Provides maximum engine braking.
•Allows upshifts by moving gearshiftlever.
•Does not downshift into first (1) gearat high speeds; allows for first (1) gearwhen vehicle reaches slower speeds.
Forced downshifts
•Allowed in drive (D) with the tow/haulfeature on or off.
•Press the accelerator to the floor.
•Allows transmission to select anappropriate gear.
Tow/Haul Mode
To activate tow/haul, press thebutton on the gearshift leveronce. The TOW HAUL indicatorilluminates in the instrument cluster.
The tow/haul feature:
•Delays upshifts to reduce the frequencyof transmission shifting.
•Provides engine braking in all forwardgears, which slows your vehicle andassists you in controlling your vehiclewhen descending a grade.
•Depending on driving and loadconditions, could downshift thetransmission to slow your vehicle andhelp control your vehicle speed whendescending a hill, without pressing theaccelerator pedal. Tapping the brakepedal downshifts the transmission toprovide additional braking, only if thedownshift does not cause an engineoverspeed condition.
The tow/haul feature improvestransmission operation when towing atrailer or a heavy load. All transmissiongear ranges are available when usingtow/haul.
Note:Under certain conditions, theautomatic tow/haul feature engages, andthe TOW HAUL indicator illuminateswithout pressing the tow/haul button.
