Forced Downshifts

To gain acceleration in (Overdrive) or Drive (O/D OFF) when

passing another vehicle, push the accelerator to the floor. The

transmission will downshift to the appropriate gear: third, second or first

gear.

Shift strategy (4R100 automatic transmission)

To account for customer driving habits and conditions, your 4R100

automatic transmission electronically controls the shift quality by using

an adaptive learning strategy. The adaptive learning strategy is

maintained by power from the battery. When the battery is disconnected

or a new battery is installed, the transmission must relearn its adaptive

strategy. Optimal shifting will resume within a few hundred kilometers

(miles) of operation.

If the shift quality does not improve within a few hundred

kilometers (miles) of operation, or if the downshifts and other

throttle conditions do not function normally, see your dealer or a

qualified service technician as soon as possible.

REVERSE SENSING SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)

The reverse sensing system (RSS) sounds a tone to warn the driver of

obstacles near the rear bumper when the reverse gear is selected.

To help avoid personal injury, please read and understand the

limitations on the reverse sensing system described below.

Reverse sensing is only an assist for some (generally large and fixed)

objects when moving in reverse on a flat surface at “parking speeds” of

approximately 4.8 km/h (3 mph) or less. The weather may also affect

the function of RSS. RSS may have reduced performance, or be

activated in inclement weather. It is the driver’s responsibility for

ensuring that their path is clear when operating the vehicle.

To help avoid personal injury, always use caution when in

reverse and when using the reverse sensing system.
