However when the lever is in ‘D’ position it can be

moved into Performance/Sport position by pushing the

lever to the left. It now Electronically controls the

Transmission.

NOTE: This is the Recommended ‘Towing’ position

for the Selector as well the Sequential Sport or

Performance position for Manual operation of the

Sequential Sports Shift.

The transmission will shift ‘Automatically’ when the

selector is in D or ‘Performance/Sport’ until the

selector lever is moved either forward or rearward to

the +/- position. The Sequential Sport Shifter is now in

required.
If the Selector is pulled rearward (+) the ‘SSS’ will be

activated and the Transmission will upshift to a higher

gear, if the selector is pushed forward (-) the

transmission will shift down to a lower gear provided

the vehicle speed is within the safe operating speed

for the transmission.
