Caution
Spinning the tires or holding the vehicle

Manual Mode

Electronic Range Select (ERS) Mode
ERS or manual mode allows for the selection
of the range of gear positions. Use this
mode when driving downhill or towing a
trailer to limit the top gear and vehicle
speed. The shift position indicator within the
Driver Information Center (DIC) will display a
number next to the L indicating the highest
available gear under manual mode and the
driving conditions when manual mode was
selected.
To use this feature:
1. With the vehicle in D (Drive), press the
L (Low) button.
2. Press the plus or minus button to
increase or decrease the gear range
available.
When shifting to L (Low), the transmission
will shift to a preset lower gear range. For
this preset range, the highest gear available
is displayed next to the L in the DIC. See
Driver Information Center (DIC) (Uplevel)
0 118 or
Driver Information Center (DIC) (Base Level)
0 116. All gears below that number are
available to use. For example, when
4 (Fourth) is shown next to the L, 1 (First)
through 4 (Fourth) gears are shifted
automatically. To shift to 5 (Fifth) gear, press
the + (Plus) button or shift into D (Drive).
L (Low) will prevent shifting to a lower gear
range if the engine speed is too high.
If vehicle speed is not reduced within the
time allowed, the lower gear range shift will
not be completed. Slow the vehicle, then
press the (Minus) button to the desired
lower gear range.
While using ERS, cruise control can be used.
