You can switch between DRIVE and ERS mode at any

vehicle speed. When the shift lever is in the DRIVE

position, the transmission will operate automatically,

shifting between all available gears. Tapping the shift

lever to the left (-) will activate ERS mode, display the

current gear in the instrument cluster, and maintain that

gear as the top available gear. Once in ERS mode, tapping

the shift lever to the left (-) or right (+) will change the top

available gear.

To exit ERS mode, simply hold the shift lever to the right

(+) until “D” is once again displayed in the instrument

cluster.

WARNING!

Do not downshift for additional engine braking on a
slippery surface. The drive wheels could lose their
grip and the vehicle could skid, causing a collision or
personal injury.
