ELECTRONIC CONTROL DAMPING SYSTEM

• This vehicle may be equipped with an electronic controlled damping system. This

system reduces body roll and pitch in many driving situations including cornering,
acceleration and braking. There are three modes of operation:

Automatic (Auto) Mode

• This is the default position when vehicle

ignition is first turned on. This mode will
give a sporty, but comfortable ride. Within
this mode, the suspension will adapt to
the vehicle inputs, including vehicle
speed, steering inputs, braking, and ac-
celeration.

• If AutoStick® is engaged while in “Auto”

mode, the transmission will automati-
cally shift up if maximum engine speed is
reached.

• Heavily pressing the accelerator pedal

may generate an automatic downshift for improved acceleration.

• This mode should be used for most driving situations.

Sport Mode

SPORT

• This mode is driver selectable when the

vehicle is placed in SPORT mode (press
the CONTROLS button and then the
SPORT button on the display screen). This
mode will set suspension for maximum
performance handling and is intended for
spirited driving.

• When SPORT mode is enabled, a flag will

light up in the instrument cluster.

NOTE:
The SPORT setting will provide a firmer ride.
