The CommandShift™ and gear selector status
will be displayed in the Message centre.
1. To select Drive ( D), Reverse (R), Neutral
(N) or Park (P), apply the foot brake, then
rotate the gear selector to the required
position. The related LED indicator by the
gear selector will illuminate.
While in D, the gear changing is fully
automatic. The shift points are determined
by the accelerator pedal position and the
vehicle's current speed.
To achieve rapid acceleration (kick-down)
while in D, quickly depress the accelerator
pedal to its full travel. When the accelerator
pedal is relaxed, normal automatic gear
changing will resume.
Note: Before selecting D, R, N or P make
sure the vehicle is stationary and the
brakes are applied.
Note: If pressure is applied to the gear
selector before the foot brake is applied,
the selected gear may not be available. In
this situation, remove the pressure from
the gear selector, make sure the foot brake
is applied and select the required gear as
described.
2. To select S mode from D, press the gear
selector down and rotate to S. The related
LED by the gear selector will illuminate.
The transmission will stay in the lower
gears for longer, improving mid-range
performance.
To deselect S mode, rotate the gear
selector back to D.
3. CommandShift™ gear selector paddles.
Allows manual gear selection, while the
selector is in either the D or S positions.
CommandShift ™ can be configured to
work in S only, or in S and D from the
Driving Features menu, which is accessed
via the Vehicle Set-up menu in the
Instrument panel. See 40, INSTRUMENT
PANEL MENU. Lightly pull the left paddle
for downshifts or lightly pull the right
paddle for upshifts.
TRANSMISSION COMMANDSHIFT
SELECTED will appear briefly in the
Message centre when CommandShift™ is
first selected.
CommandShift™ can be effective when
rapid acceleration and engine braking are
required.
A gear shift indicator warning lamp will
illuminate briefly at the recommended
(upshift) gear change point. See 46, GEAR
SHIFT (GREEN).
Note: If continued use of the
CommandShift™ gear selector paddles is
required, select D or S.
4. To exit the CommandShift™ mode and
return to S
mode, lightly pull and hold the
upshift (+) paddle for approximately 1
second. To return to D mode, move the
rotary gear selector back to the D position.
Before exiting the vehicle, always
make sure the gear selector is in the P
position, the engine is turned off, the
Electric Parking Brake (EPB) is
applied and the Smart key is removed
from the vehicle.
Never select P while the vehicle is in
motion. Doing so can result in serious
transmission damage.
