Acura 2013 TL - Manual (Page 503)

When you are driving in the D
position, you can shift the
transmission up or down manually
with the paddle shifters.
Each time you pull (right), the
transmission shifts to a higher gear.
Pull
(left) to downshift. You will
see the selected gear number on the
instrument panel.
To shift up or down, use the
(right) or
(left) paddle shifter on
either side of the steering wheel.
Downshifting with the paddle shifter
allows you to increase the engine
braking when going down steep or
long hills, and provides more power
when climbing uphills. You can
upshift the transmission manually to
reduce the rpm.
When you pull either paddle shifter,
the gear position indicator shows you
the selected gear number.
