WARNING!
(Continued)
• 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 SELECT (ERS) OPERATION
• 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.
• Toggle the switch on the column shift lever down (-) or up (+) to select the
desired top gear.
• For maximum deceleration (engine braking) toggle the switch on the column
shift lever down (-). Your vehicle will automatically select the lowest safe gear
for optimal engine braking.
• To disable ERS, push and hold the column shift lever switch up (+) until “D” is
displayed in the 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.
