Driving tips
Kickdown
Use kickdown for maximum acceleration.
► Vehicles for USA: fully depress the accelerator pedal.
The transmission shifts to a lower gear depending on the engine speed.
► Vehicles for Canada: depress the accelerator pedal beyond the pressure point.
The transmission shifts to a lower gear depending on the engine speed.
Rocking the vehicle free
Rocking the vehicle free by shifting back and forth between transmission positions D and R can help to free a vehicle that has become stuck in mud or snow. The engine management system of the vehicle limits shifting back and forth between transmission positions D and R to a maximum speed of 5 mph (9 km/h). To shift back and forth between transmission positions D and R, move the selector lever up and down beyond the pressure point.
Working on the vehicle
WARNING 
When working on the vehicle, engage the
parking brake and shift the automatic
transmission into park position P. Otherwise
the vehicle could roll away which could result
in an accident and/or serious personal injury.
Trailer towing
► When towing a trailer and driving
downhill,
shift to the lower gear if the automatic
transmission constantly shifts between
two gears.
► Engaging a lower gear and reducing the
speed reduces the risk of the engine
overheating.
