Automatic Transmission; Hill Start Assist - Chevrolet TRAX 2019 Getting To Know Manual

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION

Driver Shift Control is a manual mode that
allows the driver to manually select the
range of gear positions. This feature can
be used to drive the vehicle in a sportier
manner or to downshift when driving on a
downhill grade to provide engine braking.
1. Move the shift lever to the Manual (M)
position.
2. Press the + (plus) or – (minus) button
on the side of the shift lever to upshift or
downshift. The current gear will be dis-
played on the Driver Information Center.
If vehicle speed is too high or too low for the
requested gear, the shift will not occur.
TRACTION CONTROL AND STABILITRAK® SYSTEMS
The traction control system limits wheel-
spin and the StabiliTrak stability control
system assists with directional control of
the vehicle in difficult driving conditions.
Both systems turn on automatically every
time the vehicle is started.
Turn off traction control if the vehicle is
stuck and rocking the vehicle is required.
Traction Control/
Press the
StabiliTrak button on the center of the
instrument panel to turn traction control off or on. The
will illuminate on the instrument cluster when the system is off.

HILL START ASSIST

When stopped on a steep hill, Hill Start Assist prevents the vehicle from rolling before
driving off, whether facing uphill or downhill. During the transition between when the
driver releases the brake pedal and starts to accelerate, Hill Start Assist holds the brake
pressure (for up to 2 seconds) to ensure the vehicle doesn't roll.
Note: Hill Start Assist will not operate if StabiliTrak is disabled.
