L (Low)

This position:

• Provides maximum engine braking.

• Will downshift to the lowest available gear for the current vehicle

speed; allows for first gear when vehicle reaches slower speeds.

• Is not intended for use under extended or normal driving conditions

and results in lower fuel economy.

Understanding your SelectShift Automatic™ transmission (SST)

gearshift lever

This vehicle may be equipped with a

SelectShift Automatic™

transmission (SST) gearshift lever.

SST is an automatic transmission

with the ability for the driver to

change gears up or down (without a

clutch) as desired. By moving the

gearshift lever to the S position, and

using the gearshift lever toggle

switch, you now have control of

selecting the gear you desire.

• To manually downshift the transmission with the gearshift lever in S

(SelectShift), press (–) on the gearshift lever.

• To manually upshift the transmission with the gearshift lever in S

(SelectShift), press (+) on the gearshift lever.

Initially, when moving the lever to the S (SelectShift) mode , the

instrument cluster will show the current selected gear and the SST light

will illuminate.

In order to prevent the engine from running at too low an RPM, which

may cause it to stall, the SST will still automatically make some

downshifts if it has determined that you have not downshifted in time.

Although the SST will make some downshifts for you, it will still allow

you to downshift at any time as long as the SST determines that the

engine will not be damaged from over-revving.

The SST will automatically upshift if the engine reaches maximum RPM

and the driver has not selected the proper gear for vehicle speed to help

prevent engine damage caused by excessive over-revving.

Engine damage may occur if excessive engine revving is held

without shifting.
