AUTOSTICK®
Steering Wheel Mounted Paddle Shifters Or Console Mounted Shifter
• AutoStick® is a driver-interactive transmis-sion feature that offers manual gear shifting
to provide you with more control of the
vehicle. AutoStick® allows you to maximize
engine braking, and improve overall vehicle
performance.
• This system can also provide you with more control during passing, city driving, cold
slippery conditions, mountain driving, trailer
towing, and many other situations.
Operation
• When the shift lever is in the DRIVE posi-tion, the transmission will operate automati-
cally, shifting between the five available
gears. To engage AutoStick®, simply move
the shift lever to the right or left (+/-) while in the DRIVE position, or press one of the steering
wheel mounted shift paddles (+/-). When AutoStick® is active, the current transmission gear is
displayed in the Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) portion of the instrument
cluster. In AutoStick® mode, the transmission will shift when manually selected by the driver
(using the shift lever, or the shift paddles), unless an engine lugging or overspeed condition
would result. It will remain in the selected gear until another upshift or downshift is chosen,
except as described below:• The transmission will automatically downshift as the vehicle slows (to prevent engine
lugging) and will display the current gear.
• The transmission will automatically downshift to first gear when coming to a stop.
• You can start out in first or second gear. Tapping (+) (at a stop) will allow starting in second gear. Starting out in second gear is helpful in snowy or icy conditions.
• The system will ignore attempts to upshift at too low of a vehicle speed.
• Transmission shifting will be more noticeable when AutoStick® is engaged. To disengage AutoStick® mode, hold the shift lever to the right or press and hold the (+) shift paddle until
“D” is once again displayed in the instrument cluster. You can shift in or out of the AutoStick®
mode at any time without taking your foot off the accelerator pedal.

ELECTRONIC CONTROL DAMPING SYSTEM
• This vehicle may be equipped with an electronic controlled damping system. This systemreduces body roll and pitch in many driving situations including cornering, acceleration and
braking. There are three modes of operation:
Automatic (Auto) Mode
• This is the default position when vehicleignition is first turned on. This mode will give
a sporty, but comfortable ride. Within this
mode, the suspension will adapt to the ve-
hicle inputs, including vehicle speed, steer-
ing inputs, braking, and acceleration.
•
If AutoStick® is engaged while in “Auto”
mode, the transmission will automatically shift
up if maximum engine speed is reached.
• Heavily pressing the accelerator pedal may generate an automatic downshift for im-
proved acceleration.
• This mode should be used for most driving situations.
SPORTSport Mode
• This mode is driver selectable when the vehicle is placed in SPORT mode (press the
CONTROLS button and then the SPORT
button on the display screen). This mode
will set suspension for maximum perfor-
mance handling and is intended for spirited
driving.
• When SPORT mode is enabled, a flag will light up in the instrument cluster.
NOTE:
The SPORT setting will provide a firmer ride.
