Transmission
Manual Paddle Shift
(Automatic Transmission)
The Manual Paddle Shift system
can be used in D (Drive) or
M (Manual Mode). The system is
activated by pushing the left paddle
to downshift and right paddle to
upshift. The current gear will be
displayed in the instrument cluster,
or the Head-Up Display (HUD),
if equipped.
The Manual Paddle Shift system will
not allow either an upshift or a
downshift, if the vehicle speed is too
fast or too slow, nor will it allow a
start from 4 (Fourth) or higher gear.
See Manual Mode on page 9-28.
Active Rev Match (Manual
Transmission)
Vehicles equipped with a manual
transmission have Active Rev Match
(ARM). ARM aids in smoother
shifting by matching the engine
speed to the next selected gear.
The system is normally off. It is
activated and deactivated by
pressing either of the paddles
marked REV MATCH on the
steering wheel. See Active Rev
Match on page 9-32.
One to Four Shift (Manual
Transmission)
On vehicles with a manual
transmission, when this DIC
message is displayed, the
transmission can only shift from
1 (First) to 4 (Fourth) instead of
1 (First) to 2 (Second).
For more information about shifting
for the best fuel economy, see
Manual Transmission on page 9-30.
