4. Wait approximately 30 seconds.
5. Restart the engine.
6. Shift into the desired gear range. If the
problem is no longer detected, the
transmission will return to normal operation.
NOTE:
Even if the transmission can be reset, we
recommend that you visit an authorized dealer at
your earliest possible convenience. An authorized
dealer has diagnostic equipment to assess the
condition of your transmission.
If the transmission cannot be reset, authorized
dealer service is required.
AutoStick
AutoStick is a driver-interactive transmission
feature providing manual shift control, giving you
more control of the vehicle. AutoStick allows you to
maximize engine braking, eliminate undesirable
upshifts and downshifts, and improve overall
vehicle performance. This feature can also provide
you with more control during passing, city driving,
cold slippery conditions, mountain driving, trailer
towing, and many other situations.
Operation
To activate AutoStick mode, move the gear
selector into the MANUAL (M) position (beside the
DRIVE position). The current transmission gear will
be displayed in the instrument cluster. In AutoStick
mode, you can use the gear selector (in the
MANUAL position) to manually shift the
transmission. Tapping the gear selector forward (-)
while in the MANUAL (M) position will downshift the
transmission to the next lower gear. Tapping the
selector rearward (+) will command an upshift.
NOTE:
If the vehicle is being operated in Electric mode,
and the driver moves the gear selector into
MANUAL (M) position, then the drive mode will
automatically switch to Hybrid. If the driver is
operating in MANUAL (M) position and attempts to
select Electric mode, the drive mode switch will be
inhibited.
STARTING AND OPERATING
In AutoStick mode, the transmission will shift up or
down when (+/-) is manually selected by the driver,
unless an engine lugging or overspeed condition
would result. It will remain in the selected gear
until another upshift or downshift is chosen, except
as described below:
The transmission will automatically downshift

as the vehicle slows (to prevent engine lugging)
and will display the current gear.
The transmission will automatically downshift to

FIRST gear when coming to a stop. After a stop,
the driver should manually upshift (+) the trans-
mission as the vehicle is accelerated.
You can start out, from a stop, in FIRST or

SECOND gear (or THIRD gear, in 4WD LOW
range). Tapping (+) (at a stop) will allow starting
in SECOND gear. Starting out in SECOND or
THIRD gear can be helpful in snowy or icy condi-
tions.
If a requested downshift would cause the

engine to overspeed, that shift will not occur.
The system will ignore attempts to upshift at too

low of a vehicle speed.
