Automatic Transmission
StabiliTrak®/Traction Control Systems
The traction control system limits wheelspin and the StabiliTrak electronic stability con-trol system assists with directional control of the vehicle in difficult driving conditions.
Both systems turn on automatically every time the vehicle is started.
Driver Shift Control
Driver Shift Control allows the driver to shift gears manually. This feature can be used to
drive the vehicle in a sportier manner or to downshift when driving on a downhill grade
to provide engine braking.
Move the shift lever to the left of the
Drive (D) position. Tap the shift lever
forward (+) to upshift or rearward to
downshift (–). The currently selected
gear will be displayed on the instru
-ment cluster.
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 automatically downshift.
See Driving and Operating in your Owner Manual.
Turn off traction control if the vehicle is
stuck and rocking the vehicle is required.
Press the StabiliTrak/Traction
Control button on the top center of the
instrument panel to turn the system
on/off. The
Traction Control Off
light will illuminate on the instrument
cluster when the system is off.
See Driving and Operating in your Owner Manual.
