• The transmission will automatically downshift to first

gear when coming to a stop. After a stop, the driver

should manually upshift (+) the transmission as the

vehicle is accelerated.

• You can start out, from a stop, in first or second gear.

Tapping (+) (at a stop) will allow starting in second

gear. Starting out in second gear can be helpful in

snowy or icy conditions.

• The system will ignore attempts to upshift at too low

of a vehicle speed.

• Avoid using speed control when AutoStick is engaged.
• Transmission shifting will be more noticeable when

AutoStick is engaged.

NOTE:

When the transfer case is in the 4L (Low) range,

the transmission will shift automatically (but no higher

than the displayed gear).

To disengage AutoStick mode, hold the shift lever to the

right (+) until ЉDЉ is once again displayed in the instru-

ment cluster. You can shift in or out of the AutoStick

mode at any time without taking your foot off the

accelerator pedal.

WARNING!

Do not downshift for additional engine braking on a
slippery surface. The drive wheels could lose their
grip and the vehicle could skid, causing a collision or
personal injury.
