TABLE OF CONTENTS

ELECTRONIC RANGE SELECT (ERS)
• The Electronic Range Select (ERS) featureallows you to select the desired top gear. For
example, if you shift the transaxle into third
gear, the transaxle will never shift above third
gear, but can shift down to second or first
gear automatically when needed.
• To shift from DRIVE mode to ERS mode, move the shift lever to the left (-) once. The current
gear will be maintained as the top gear. To
disable ERS, simply press and hold the shift
lever to the right (+) until “D” is displayed in
the instrument cluster odometer.
• Switching from ERS to DRIVE can be done at any vehicle speed.
MANUAL CLIMATE CONTROLS
Air Recirculation

Rear Climate Control
• The Manual Rear Climate Control system has one floor air outlet (passenger side), andtwo panel outlets in the rear quarter trim (on each side). The unit provides warm or cool
air through the floor and upper outlets.
• The rear temperature, blower speed, and mode control can be adjusted as desired by the third row seat occupants.
NOTE: The rear climate control system cannot be controlled from the front seat; it can
only be turned on and off. All control of the rear system must be performed by the rear
occupants.
PARKSENSE® REAR PARK ASSIST
• If an object is detected behind the rear bumper while the vehicle is in REVERSE, a warning will display in the headliner near the flipper glass and a chime will sound. The
chime rate will change depending on the distance of the object, getting faster as the
object gets closer to the bumper.
PARKVIEW® REAR BACK-UP CAMERA
• You can see an on-screen image of the rear of your vehicle whenever the shift lever isput into REVERSE. The ParkView®Rear Back-Up Camera camera image will be
displayed on the radio display screen, located on the center stack of the instrument
panel.
WARNING!
Drivers must be careful when backing up even when using the ParkView®Rear
Back-Up Camera. Always check carefully behind your vehicle, and be sure to check
for pedestrians, animals, other vehicles, obstructions, or blind spots before backing
up. You are responsible for the safety of your surroundings and must continue to pay
attention while backing up. Failure to do so can result in serious injury or death.
