Selec-Trac® - If Equipped; Description - Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT 2014 Owner's Manual

• If a requested downshift would cause the engine to
over-speed, that shift will not occur.
• The system will ignore attempts to upshift at too low
of a vehicle speed.
• Holding the (-) paddle depressed will progressively
downshift the transmission to the lowest gear possible
at the current speed.
• Transmission shifting will be more noticeable when
Paddle Shift mode is enabled.
• The system may revert to automatic shift mode if a
fault or overheat condition is detected.
To disengage Paddle Shift mode, press and hold the (+)
shift paddle until "D" or "S" is once again displayed in
the instrument cluster. You can shift in or out of the
Paddle Shift mode at any time without taking your foot
off the accelerator pedal.
WARNING!
Do not downshift for additional engine braking on a
slippery surface. The drive wheels could lose their
grip and the vehicle could skid, causing a collision or
personal injury.
