NOTE:

• Steps 1 through 4 are requirements that must be met

before pressing the “N” button, and must continue to
be met until the shift has been completed. If any of
these requirements are not met before pressing the “N”
button or are no longer met during the shift, then the
“N” indicator light will flash continuously until all
requirements are met or until the “N” button is re-
leased.

• The ignition switch must be in the ON/RUN position

for a shift to take place and for the position indicator
lights to be operable. If the ignition switch is not in the
ON/RUN position, the shift will not take place and no
position indicator lights will be on or flashing.

• A flashing “N” position indicator light indicates that

shift requirements have not been met.

• If the vehicle is equipped with Quadra-Lift™ air

suspension, the engine should be started and left
running for a minimum of 60 seconds (with all the
doors closed) at least once every 24 hours. This process
allows the air suspension to adjust the vehicle’s ride
height to compensate for temperature effects.
