NOTE:
• If you pull and hold (not tap) the shift lever to the left
(-), the transmission will downshift to the lowest gear
that can be attained without overrevving the engine.
The display will show the gear the vehicle is in and
will limit the top gear to the one displayed.
• If you pull and hold (not tap) the shift lever to the right
(+), the transmission will exit the gear limiting mode
and shift to the appropriate gear. The display will read
D .
3.7L Engine
When in the DRIVE position, the first tap to the left (-)
will shift down one gear and will display that gear. For
example, if you are in DRIVE and are in 5th gear, when
you tap the shift lever one time to the left (-), the
transmission will downshift to 4th gear and the display
will show 4. Another tap to the left (-) will shift the
transmission into 3rd gear.
5.7L Engine
On vehicles equipped with the 5.7L engine, use of ERS (or
TOW/HAUL mode) also enables an additional underdrive
gear which is not normally used during through-gear
accelerations. This additional gear improves vehicle perfor-
mance and cooling capability when towing a trailer on
certain grades. ERS 1, 2, and 3 are underdrive gears; ERS 4
is direct drive. ERS 5 (Overdrive) is the same as the normal
4th gear. When in the DRIVE position in 1st through 4th
gear, the first tap to the left (-) will display the ERS
designation for the current gear (the transmission will not
downshift). For example, if you are in DRIVE and are in
3rd (direct) gear, when you tap the shift lever one time to
the left (-), the display will show 4 (ERS 4 is direct gear).
Another tap to the left (-) will shift the transmission down
to ERS 3 (the added underdrive gear). When in the DRIVE
position in 5th gear, the first tap to the left (-) will
downshift the transmission and display 5 (ERS 5 is the
same as normal 4th gear). Another tap to the left (-) will
shift the transmission down to ERS 4 (direct gear).
