The normal driving position for the best fuel economy. Transmission

operates in gears one through six.

D (Drive) with Grade Assist

Pressing the transmission control

switch on the side of the gearshift

lever activates Grade Assist.

Grade Assist

• Improves driving experience in

hilly terrain or mountainous areas

by providing additional grade

(engine) braking and extends

lower gear operation on uphill

climbs.

• Provides additional engine

braking through the automatic

transmission shift strategy which

reacts to vehicle inputs (vehicle

acceleration, accelerator pedal,

brake pedal and vehicle speed).

• Allows the transmission to select

gears that will provide the desired

engine braking based on the

vehicle inputs mentioned above.

This will increase engine RPM during engine braking.

• The grade assist lamp in the

instrument cluster is illuminated.

Grade Assist is designed to provide

optimal gear selection in hilly terrain

or mountainous areas. It is recommended that you return to D (Drive)

on flat terrain to provide the best fuel economy and transmission

function.
