ONTROL
The Launch Control strategy permits
high-performance acceleration from a
standstill.
This strategy can be activated with vehicle at a
standstill, Race mode selected and FIRST (1st)
gear engaged.
The sequence of operations to perform is as
follows:
1. Press the brake pedal and hold it down.
2. Press the accelerator pedal and hold it
down.
3. Press the "–" paddle behind the steering
wheel. (This allows the engine to rev above
the 3,000 RPM limit.)
When the brake pedal is released, the vehicle
will start with maximum acceleration. Despite
the MANUAL mode, the vehicle will
automatically shift the gear to guarantee
maximum acceleration, once the correct
shifting speed has been reached.
STARTING AND OPERATING
WARNING!
Launch Control is intended for off-highway or
off-road use only and should not be used on
any public roadways. Use Launch Control only
in a controlled and dry track environment;
within the limits of the law. Actual Launch
Control performance may change depending
on the surface and current traction
conditions. The capabilities of the vehicle as
measured by the performance pages must
never be exploited in a reckless or dangerous
manner, which can jeopardize the user's
safety or the safety of others. Only a safe,
attentive, and skillful driver can prevent
accidents. Failure to follow this warning may
result in serious injury or death.
To discontinue the strategy, simply interrupt the
above sequence of operations or release the
accelerator pedal.
SPEED CONTROL — IF EQUIPPED
When engaged, the Speed Control takes over
accelerator operations at speeds greater than
18 mph (30 km/h), up to the maximum speed
of 105 mph (170 km/h).
The Speed Control Lever is located on the left
side of the steering column.
