STABILITRAK®/TRACTION
CONTROL SYSTEMS
The 8-speed automatic transmis-sion has an available Tap Shift
mode that allows you to shift
gears similar to a manual trans
-mission.
USING TAP SHIFT
1. While in Drive (D), use either
paddle behind the steering wheel to temporarily take control of
gear selection.
2. Pull the right paddle to upshift or the left paddle to downshift.
If current vehicle speed is too high or too low for the requested gear,
the shift will not occur. When coming to a stop, the trans mission
will automatically shift to 1st gear.
The automatic transmission also can be manually controlled by
moving the shift lever to the left gate; tap the lever forward to
upshift and rearward to downshift.
See Driving and Operating in your Owner Manual.
DRIVER MODE CONTROL SYSTEM
The Driver Mode Control System automatically adjusts steering,
automatic transmission (if equipped) and Magnetic Ride Control (if equipped) settings in real time.
Press the MODE button on the center console to select Tour
(default at each ignition cycle), Sport, or Snow/Ice♦ mode.
