Second or Third Gear Start Feature
When accelerating your 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 DRIVE (D) into the
MANUAL MODE (M).
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.
