FORD 2013 Explorer v.3 - Manual (Page 223)

SelectShift Automatic ா Transmission
Note: Your transmission must be in M (Manual) for SelectShift to
operate properly.
Your SelectShift automatic transmission gives you the ability to manually
change gears if you’d like. To use SelectShift, move the gearshift lever
into M (Manual). Now you can use the thumb toggle on the side of your
gearshift lever to select gears.
When using the toggle for manual
shifting:
• Press (+) on the toggle to
upshift.
• Press (–) on the toggle to
downshift.
Paddle Shifters (If Equipped)
The paddle shifters allow you to shift gears quickly, without taking your
hands off the steering wheel. Temporary manual control is provided
when pulling the paddles with the gearshift in the D (Drive) position.
The system will determine when temporary manual control is no longer
desired and reverts back to automatic control. Extensive manual control
can be achieved by moving the shifter to the M (Manual) position. The
system will stay in manual control until the shifter is moved out of the
manual position.
