Although the gears shift automatically,
the shifting feel and sound experienced
from the Powershift transmission is
similar to those of a manual
transmission, which is normal.
The Powershift transmission
continuously makes electronic
adjustments to optimize shift quality.

may feel slight vibrations when
accelerating your vehicle from low
speeds.

1.
Fully press down the brake pedal.
2. Press and hold the button on the front
of the gearshift lever.
