Manual Mode - Chevrolet 2013 TRAX Owner's Manual

Manual Mode

Driver Shift Control (DSC)
To use this feature:
1. Move the shift lever from
D (Drive) rearward to
M (Manual).
While driving in manual mode,
the transmission will remain in
the driver selected gear. When
coming to a stop in the manual
position, the vehicle will
automatically shift into
1 (First) gear.
2. Press the + (plus) end of the
button on the side of the shift
lever to upshift, or push the
(minus) end of the button to
downshift.
The instrument cluster will change
from the currently displayed
message to the letter M, for
Manual position, and a number
indicating the requested gear.
While using the DSC feature, the
transmission will have firmer shifting
and sportier performance. This can
be used for sport driving or when
climbing hills to stay in gear longer
or to downshift for more power or
engine braking.
