Caution
Driving with the engine at a high
rpm without upshifting while using
Driver Shift Control (DSC), could
damage the vehicle. Always
upshift when necessary while
using DSC.
DSC allows you to shift an
automatic transmission similar to a

manual transmission.

1. Move the shift lever from
D (Drive) to the left into the (+)
or ( ) manual position.
Driving and Operating
2. Press the shift lever forward (+)
to upshift or rearward ( ) to
downshift. An M and the
current gear will be displayed
in the DIC.
While using the DSC feature, the
vehicle will have firmer, quicker
shifting. Use DSC for sport driving
or when climbing or descending
hills, to stay in gear longer, or to
downshift for more power or engine
braking.
The transmission will only allow
shifting into gears appropriate for
vehicle speed and engine
revolutions per minute (rpm). The
transmission will not automatically
shift to the next lower gear if the
engine rpm is too high, nor to the
next higher gear when the maximum
engine rpm is reached.
If shifting is prevented for any
reason, the currently selected gear
will flash multiple times, indicating
that the transmission has not shifted
gears.
