ELECTRONIC CONTROL DAMPING SYSTEM
• This vehicle may be equipped with an electronic controlled damping system. This system
reduces body roll and pitch in many driving situations including cornering, acceleration
and braking. There are three modes of operation:
Automatic (Auto) Mode
• This is the default position when vehicle
ignition is first turned on. This mode will
give a sporty, but comfortable ride. Within
this mode, the suspension will adapt to the
vehicle inputs, including vehicle speed,
steering inputs, braking, and acceleration.
• If AutoStick® is engaged while in “Auto”
mode, the transmission will automati-
cally shift up if maximum engine speed is
reached.
• Heavily pressing the accelerator pedal
may generate an automatic downshift for
improved acceleration.
• This mode should be used for most driving situations.
Sport Mode SPORT
• This mode is driver selectable when the
vehicle is placed in SPORT mode (press
the CONTROLS button and then the
SPORT button on the display screen). This
mode will set suspension for maximum
performance handling and is intended for
spirited driving.
• When SPORT mode is enabled, a flag will
light up in the instrument cluster.
NOTE:
The SPORT setting will provide a firmer ride.
Track Mode
• In track mode, the transmission has a
sportier, more aggressive shift pattern.
• This mode includes SPORT Suspension
and affects transmission shifting in either
Auto or Manual mode.
• If AutoStick (console shifter or paddle
shifters) is engaged while in “Track” mode,
the transmission will remain in the selected
gear even when maximum engine speed is
reached.
