WARNING!
(Continued)
• Forward Collision Warning (FCW) is not intended to avoid a
collision on its own. The driver has the responsibility to avoid a
collision by controlling the vehicle via braking and steering. Failure
to follow this warning could lead to serious injury or death.
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 switch from DRIVE mode to ERS mode, tap the shift lever to the left
(-) once. The instrument cluster will display the current gear and the
transmission will not upshift beyond that gear. Tapping the shift lever to
the left (-) or right (+) will decrease or increase the top available gear. To
disable ERS, simply hold the shift lever to the right (+) until “D” is again
displayed in the instrument cluster.
• 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.
