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 driving on a downhill grade to provide engine braking.
1. 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 Manual.
