2. Tap the shift lever forward (+) to upshift or rear-ward (–) to downshift. The current gear is shown on the Driver Information Center.

DRIVER ASSISTANCE SYSTEMS
Traction Control and StabiliTrak — The full-time traction control system limits wheelspin and the StabiliTrak electronic stability control system assists with directional control of the vehicle in difficult driving conditions. Both systems turn on automatically every time the vehicle is started. Traction control should be turned off if the vehicle is stuck and rocking the vehicle is required.
To turn traction control on or off, press the Traction Control/StabiliTrak button on the center of the instrument panel.
Forward Collision AlertF — The Vehicle Ahead indicator is green on the instrument clus-ter when a vehicle is detected and is amber when following a vehicle ahead too closely. When approaching a detected vehicle directly ahead too rapidly, a red alert flashes on the windshield and rapid beeps sound.
Press the Collision Alert button on the steering wheel to set the alert timing to Far, Medium, or Near. The setting is displayed on the Driver Information Center.
Follow Distance IndicatorF — The follow distance is indicated in seconds under the Info menu on the Driver Information Center. If no vehicle is detected ahead, dashes are displayed.
Forward Automatic BrakingF — The brakes may be applied automatically in potential collision situations to help reduce damage or help avoid collisions with vehicles directly ahead.
To set Forward Automatic Braking and Forward Collision Alert to Alert and Brake, Alert, or Off, go to Settings > Vehicle > Collision/Detection Systems > Forward Collision System.
Front Pedestrian BrakingF — During daytime driving, the system detects pedestrians directly ahead up to a distance of approximately 131 feet and displays an amber indicator. When approaching a detected pedestrian too quickly, a red alert flashes on the wind-shield and rapid beeps sound. The system may prepare the brakes or automatically brake the vehicle.
To set the system to Alert and Brake, Alert, or Off, go to Settings > Vehicle > Collision/Detection Systems > Front Pedestrian Detection.
