PowerShift Automatic Transmission*
We designed this transmission for
fun-to-drive performance and exceptional
fuel efficiency, by using the advantages
of a manual transmission with the
convenience of an automatic transmission.
You may notice the following
characteristics of this technology:
• Mechanical noises after switching the
engine off, opening the driver door
and during some transmission shifting
events. These are normal and do not cause damage.
• Firm gearshifts when moving the accelerator pedal back
and forth quickly.
Your transmission continuously makes electronic adjustments
to optimize shift quality and acceleration performance. It makes
most of the adjustments during the first 1,000 miles (1610
kilometers) of operation. During this break-in period, you may
feel slight vibrations when accelerating your vehicle from low

speeds. See the

for details.
SelectShift Automatic Transmission*
®
This transmission gives you the ability to
manually change gears if you'd like.
To Use
• Move the gearshift lever from drive (D)
to sport (S).
• Activate SelectShift by using the thumb
toggle located on the side of your
gearshift lever to make manual shifts.
• Press the (+) button to upshift. Press
the (–) button to downshift.
Hill Start Assist*
The system makes it easier to pull away when you park your
vehicle on a slope without using the parking brake. When active,
this feature allows your vehicle to remain stationary on a slope
for up to two to three seconds after you release the brake
pedal. This short period gives you time to move your foot to the
accelerator and pull away. This feature activates automatically
if the sensors detect that the vehicle is on a slope.
