S (Sport)
Moving the gearshift lever to S (Sport):
• Provides additional grade (engine) braking and extends lower gear
operation to enhance performance for uphill climbs, hilly terrain or
mountainous areas. This will increase engine RPM during engine
braking.
• Provides additional lower gear operation through the automatic
transmission shift strategy which reacts to vehicle inputs (vehicle
acceleration, accelerator pedal, brake pedal and vehicle speed).
• Gears are selected more quickly and at higher engine speeds.
SelectShift Automatic™ Transmission (If Equipped)
Note: Your transmission must be in S (Sport) for SelectShift to operate
properly.
Your SelectShift automatic transmission gives you the ability to manually
change gears if you’d like. To use SelectShift, move the gearshift lever
into S (Sport). Now you can use select shift to manually change gears.
Note: The system will stay in S (Sport) until the gear shift lever is
moved into another gear for example P (park) or D (Drive).
If your vehicle is equipped with the +/– buttons on the side of your
gearshift lever:
• Press (–) on the gearshift lever
button to manually downshift the
transmission.
• Press (+) on the gearshift lever
button to manually upshift the
transmission.
