L (Low)

This position:

• Provides maximum engine braking.

• Will downshift to the lowest available gear for the current vehicle

speed; allows for first gear when vehicle reaches slower speeds.

• Is not intended for use under extended or normal driving conditions

and results in lower fuel economy.

S (Sport) (If Equipped)

Moving the gearshift lever to S (Sport):

•

Provides additional grade (engine) braking and extends lower gear

operation to enhance performance for uphill climbs, hilly terrain or

mountainous areas. This will increase engine RPM during engine braking.

• Provides additional lower gear operation through the automatic

transmission shift strategy which reacts to vehicle inputs (vehicle

acceleration, accelerator pedal, brake pedal and vehicle speed).

• Gears are selected more quickly and at higher engine speeds.

Understanding Your SelectShift Automatic® Transmission

(If Equipped)

Note: Your transmission must be in S (Sport) for SelectShift to operate

properly.

Your SelectShift automatic transmission gives you the ability to manually

change gears if you’d like. To use SelectShift, move the gearshift lever

into S (Sport). Now you can use the thumb toggle on the side of your

gearshift lever to select gears.

When using the toggle for manual

shifting:

• Press (+) on the toggle to

upshift.

• Press (–) on the toggle to

downshift.
