Second or Third Gear Start Feature
When accelerating the vehicle from a stop in snowy and
icy conditions, you may want to shift the gear select
tap switch into Second or Third gear. A higher
gear allows you to gain more traction on slippery
surfaces.
With the DSC feature, the vehicle can be set to pull
away in Second or Third gear.
1. Move the shift lever from D (Drive) into the
M (Manual Mode).
2. With the vehicle stopped, press (+) end of the
button to select Second or Third gear. The
vehicle will start from a stop position in Second or
Third gear.
3. Once moving select the desired drive gear.

will come on. See Brake
System Warning Light

pedal down, then push down momentarily on the parking
brake pedal until you feel the pedal release. If the
parking brake is not released when you begin to drive,
