Paddle Shift Controls - Aston Martin One-77 2010 Owner's Manual

Paddle Shift Controls

Forward gearshifts are selected by pulling back and
releasing the gearshift paddles mounted on the steering
column. Neutral is selected by pulling back both
paddles together and releasing.
Park and reverse are selected by using the centre stack
mounted auto drive buttons.
[1] - Downshift paddle.
[2] - Upshift paddle.
Neutral can also be selected by pressing N.
From park, reverse or neutral, and with the footbrake
applied, pull back on either the upshift or downshift
gearshift paddle to enter paddle shift mode. As the
vehicle speed increases and decreases, make upshifts
and downshifts by pulling and releasing the upshift or
downshift gearshift paddle. When shifting up through
the gears maintain foot pressure on the accelerator
pedal.
If a downshift request is not detected during speed
reduction, downshifts will occur as engine speed
drops.
By pulling and releasing the upshift or downshift
paddle in quick succession up and down shifts can be
'skipped', i.e. fifth to third or third to fifth (if the up or
down shift requests are within the engine and
transmission operating limits).
