TRANSMISSION
The automatic transmission has paddle shifters on the steering wheel and a Manual mode that allows you to shift gears similar to a manual transmission.
To temporarily take control of gear selection while in Drive (D), use either paddle behind the steering wheel. Automatic shifting returns after the accelerator pedal is held steady for 6 seconds.
To enter Permanent Tap Shift Mode, move the shift lever to Manual (M). Use the paddles to manually shift the transmission. Shift to Drive to return to automatic shifting.
In either mode, pull the right paddle to upshift or the left paddle to downshift. The current gear will be displayed on the instru-ment cluster.
If current speed is too high or too low for the requested gear, the shift will not occur. SHIFT DENIED will display on the instrument cluster.
Note: For information on using the paddle shifters for Regen on Demand on the CT6 PLUG-IN, refer to your CT6 PLUG-IN Convenience & Personalization Guide.
