When you accelerate away from a
stop, the transmission will start in
first gear and then automatically
upshift to second gear. You have to
manually upshift between second
and fifth gears. Make sure you
upshift before the engine speed
reaches the tachometer’s red zone.
The transmission remains in the
selected gear (5, 4, 3). There is no
automatic downshift when you push
the accelerator pedal to the floor.
The transmission may automatically
downshift from the higher gear to
the lower gear under the following
conditions:

To shift from

Speed range
under 34 mph
(55 km/h)
under 47 mph
(75 km/h)
Downshifting gives you more power
when climbing or provides engine
braking when going down a steep hill.
The transmission will also shift
automatically as the vehicle comes to
a complete stop. It will downshift to
first gear when the vehicle speed is
under 9 mph (15 km/h).
If you try to manually downshift at a
speed that would cause the engine to
exceed the redline in a lower gear,
the transmission will not downshift.
