Driver Shift Control
Driver Shift Control is a manual mode that
allows the driver to shift gears manually.
This feature can be used to limit the top
gear and vehicle speed or to downshift
when driving on a downhill grade to provide
engine braking.
1. Move the shift lever left to the L (Low)
position.
2. Press the
+
(plus) or
–
(minus) button on
the shift lever to upshift or downshift.
The current gear will be displayed on the Driver Information Center.
If vehicle speed is too high or too low for the requested gear, the shift will not occur.
See Driving and Operating in your Owner Manual.
To apply the parking brake, pull the

switch.
To release the parking brake, turn on the
ignition, press the brake pedal, and then

The parking brake will release automatically
if the vehicle is running, placed into gear and an
attempt is made to drive.
