NOTE:
•
In Autostick mode, the transmission will only shift
up and down when the driver manually moves the
shift lever Right (D+) or Left (D-).
•
An UPSHIFT message will appear in the Electronic
Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) portion of the in-
strument cluster when using Autostick. This message
appears in order to alert the driver to upshift to the
next gear. The UPSHIFT message will display while
operating the vehicle at higher engine revolutions per
minute (RPM).
You can shift in or out of the Autostick mode at any time
without taking your foot off the accelerator pedal. When
you wish to engage Autostick, simply move the shift
lever to the Right (D+) or Left (D-) while in the DRIVE
position. The transmission will remain in the current gear
until an upshift or downshift is chosen. When you wish
to disengage Autostick, hold the shift lever to the right
for at least one second. The transmission will now
operate automatically, shifting between the five available
gears.
