4. Wait approximately 30 seconds.
5. Restart the engine.
6. Shift into the desired gear range. If the problem is no

longer detected, the transmission will return to normal

operation.

NOTE:

Even if the transmission can be reset, we recom-

mend that you visit your authorized dealer at your

earliest possible convenience. Your authorized dealer has

diagnostic equipment to determine if the problem could

recur.
If the transmission cannot be reset, authorized dealer

service is required.

AUTOSTICK

AutoStick is a driver-interactive transmission feature

providing manual shift control, giving you more control

of the vehicle. AutoStick allows you to maximize engine

braking, eliminate undesirable upshifts and downshifts,

and improve overall vehicle performance. This system

can also provide you with more control during passing,

city driving, cold slippery conditions, mountain driving,

trailer towing, and many other situations.

Operation

When the shift lever is in the DRIVE (D) position, the

transmission will operate automatically, shifting between

the eight available gears. To activate AutoStick, move the

shift lever into the MANUAL (M) position (beside the

DRIVE position). The current transmission gear will be

displayed in the instrument cluster, along with a high-

lighted ЉMЉ (Manual) indication. When the shift lever is

in the MANUAL (M) position, tap the shift lever forward

(-) (or tap the (-) shift paddle on the steering wheel, if

equipped) to downshift the transmission to the next

lower gear, or tap the lever rearward (+) (or tap the (+)

shift paddle, if equipped) to command an upshift.
