Tow/Haul Mode - Cadillac 2010 Escalade EXT Owner's Manual

Ofrecido por www.electromanuales.com

Tow/Haul Mode

The vehicle has a tow/haul mode. The tow/haul mode
adjusts the transmission shift pattern to reduce shift
cycling, providing increased performance, vehicle
control, and transmission cooling when towing or
hauling heavy loads.
Press the button located on the end of the shift lever to
turn the tow/haul on or off. When the tow/haul is on, a
light on the instrument panel cluster will come on.
See Tow/Haul Mode Light on page 4 39 for more
information.
Also see Tow Haul Mode under Towing a Trailer on
page 6 42 for more information.
The tow/haul mode works with the Autoride
if the vehicle has this, to enhance the ride when
trailering or with a loaded vehicle. See Autoride
page 6 41.
Grade Braking
The Grade Braking shift modes can be activated by
pressing the button on the end of the shift control lever.
While in Range Selection Mode, Grade Braking is
deactivated allowing the driver to select a desired range
of gears.
Grade Braking is only active while the Tow/Haul Mode
is selected and you are not in the Range Selection
Mode. See Tow/Haul Mode listed previously and
Automatic Transmission Operation on page 3 35 for
more information on the Range Selection Mode.
Grade Braking assists in maintaining desired
vehicle speeds when driving on downhill grades by
automatically implementing a shift schedule that utilizes
the engine and transmission to slow the vehicle.
