Driver Shift Control 

Driver Shift Control is a manual mode that 

allows the driver to shift gears manually. This 

feature can be used to drive the vehicle in a 

sportier manner, or to downshift when driv-

ing on a downhill grade to provide engine 

braking. 
1. From the Drive (D) position, move the shift 

lever left to the +/– position. 

2. Tap the shift lever forward (+) to upshift or 

rearward (–) to 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. When 

coming to a stop, the transmission will downshift automatically.

See Driving and Operating in your Owner’s Manual. 

Selective Ride Control adapts to your driving style and preference with one of three driving 

modes. Each mode automatically adjusts suspension, steering, automatic transmission, and 

all-wheel drive settings in real time. System controls are located by the shift lever on the front 

of the center console.
