WARNING!

• Leaving the Electronic Speed Control system on when not in use is

dangerous. You could accidentally set the system or cause it to go faster than
you want. You could lose control and have a collision. Always leave the
Electronic Speed Control system off when you are not using it.

• Electronic Speed Control can be dangerous where the system cannot

maintain a constant speed. Your vehicle could go too fast for the conditions,
and you could lose control. A collision could be the result. Do not use
Electronic Speed Control in heavy traffic or on roads that are winding, icy,
snow-covered or slippery.

ELECTRONIC RANGE SELECTION (ERS)

• Electronic Range Select (ERS) allows

you to limit the highest available
transmission gear, and can be
activated during any driving condition.
When towing a trailer or operating the
vehicle in off-road conditions, using
ERS shift control will help you
maximize both performance and
engine braking.

• To shift from DRIVE mode to ERS

mode, move the shift lever to the left
(-) once. The current gear will be
maintained as the top gear. To disable
ERS, simply press and hold the shift
lever to the right (+) until “D” is
displayed in the instrument cluster
odometer.

• Switching between ERS and DRIVE

mode can be done at any vehicle
speed.

• Refer to your Owner's Manual on the

DVD for further details.
