* The ignition switch must be set at “ON” and the brake pedal depressed to shift

from Park.

Shift the shift lever to “S” position from “D” position.

Floor shift type:

+: Upshift (push and release)

-: Downshift (pull and release)

Column shift type:

+: Upshift (push and release)

-: Downshift (push and release)

Downshifting increases power going uphill, or provides engine braking downhill.

For best fuel economy during normal driving conditions, always drive with the shift

lever in the “D” position.

“Tow/Haul” mode is ideal for use when carrying heavy loads. When the TOW/

HAUL switch is pressed, throttle response and transmission control are optimized

for the high performance operation. As fuel economy is reduced while in “Tow/

Haul” mode, deactivating when driving without a load is recommended.

 Upshifts occur at higher engine speeds to expand the use of lower gear

ranges, enhancing power performance during towing and preventing

repeated gear changes.

 Downshifts occur at a greater accelerator pedal angle to allow the

vehicle to stay in a higher gear, reducing repeated gear changes.

 Downshifts occur at a lower accelerator pedal angle to allow the

vehicle to stay in a lower gear, enhancing towing ability.

 When the accelerator pedal is wide open, upshift timing is optimized to

effectively use the maximum engine power range available.

When Tow/Haul is engaged, the opening angle of the electronically

controlled throttle is wider for any given accelerator pedal position than

normal, enhancing acceleration feeling and response.

 During uphill driving, the gear position is held to prevent repeated upshifting.

 During downhill driving, downshifting to lower gears will occur to effectively use

engine braking.

Refer to the Owner‘s Manual for more details on this system before attempting

to use it.

The trailer brakes can be controlled by the Trailer brake controller via

the 7-pin connector. By selecting the type of brakes that are being

used on the trailer (electric or electric-over-hydraulic) and setting the

gain for the controller, the manual TRAILER BRAKE OUTPUT slider

is used to slow just the trailer. The vehicle brake pedal will also slow down as well

as stop the trailer when applied. Gain values, manual brake outputs, trailer brake

types and the trailer connection status are displayed in the multi-information

display.*
