The table shows the speed ranges

for upshifting and downshifting.

When you are in Sequential

SportShift mode, and the vehicle is

stopped, push forward on the shift

lever to shift to second gear. You

will see ‘‘2’’ in the display. Starting

out in second gear will help to

reduce wheelspin in deep snow or

on a slippery surface.

If you start out in second gear, the

transmission will be fixed in that

gear.
