When you are driving in the D
position, you can shift the
transmission up or down manually
with the paddle shifters.

Each time you pull

(right), the

transmission shifts to a higher gear.
Pull

(left) to downshift. You will

see the selected gear number on the
instrument panel.

To shift up or down, use the
(right) or

(left) paddle shifter on

either side of the steering wheel.

Downshifting with the paddle shifter
allows you to increase the engine
braking when going down steep or
long hills, and provides more power
when climbing uphills. You can
upshift the transmission manually to
reduce the rpm.

When you pull either paddle shifter,
the gear position indicator shows you
the selected gear number.
