The “knock-over” prevents the driver from accidentally

entering the REVERSE (R) shift area and warns the driver

that they are about to shift the transmission into RE-

VERSE (R). Due to this feature, a slow shift to REVERSE

(R) can be perceived as a high shift effort.
To shift out of REVERSE bring the vehicle to a complete

stop and press the clutch. Shifting out of REVERSE prior

to a complete stop may cause high shift effort.

AUXILIARY SWITCHES — IF EQUIPPED

There can be up to five auxiliary switches located in the

lower switch bank of the instrument panel which can be

used to power various electronic devices and PTO

(Power Take Off) – If Equipped. Connections to the

switches are found under the hood in the connectors

attached to the auxiliary Power Distribution Center.

You have the ability to configure the functionality of the

auxiliary switches via the Electronic Vehicle Information

Center (EVIC) or Driver Information Display (DID). All

switches can now be configured for ignition or battery

power, saving or not saving state across a key cycle, and

momentary or latching switch operation.
For further information on using the auxiliary switches,
