Automatic Transmission Adaptive
Learning

This feature is designed to increase
durability and provide consistent shift feel
over the life of the vehicle. A new vehicle
or transmission may have firm and/or soft
shifts. This operation is considered normal
and will not affect function or durability of
the transmission. Over time, the adaptive
learning process will fully update
transmission operation. Additionally,
whenever the battery is disconnected or a
new battery installed, the strategy must
be relearned.

If Your Vehicle Gets Stuck In Mud
or Snow

Note: Do not rock the vehicle if the engine
is not at normal operating temperature or
damage to the transmission may occur.

Note: Do not rock the vehicle for more than
a minute or damage to the transmission and
tires may occur, or the engine may overheat.

If your vehicle gets stuck in mud or snow,
it may be rocked out by shifting between
forward and reverse gears, stopping
between shifts in a steady pattern. Press
lightly on the accelerator in each gear.
