SRT ELECTRONIC CONTROL DAMPING SYSTEM • This vehicle may be equipped with an electronic controlled damping system. This system reduces body roll and pitch in many driving situations including cornering, acceleration and braking. There are three modes of operation: Automatic (Auto) Mode • This is the default position when vehicle ignition is first turned on. This mode will give a sporty, but comfortable ride. Within this mode, the suspension will adapt to the vehicle inputs, including vehicle speed, steering inputs, braking, and acceleration. • If AutoStick® is engaged while in "Auto" mode, the transmission will automatically shift up if maximum engine speed is reached. • Heavily pressing the accelerator pedal may generate an automatic downshift for improved acceleration. • This mode should be used for most driving situations. SPORT Sport Mode • This mode is driver selectable when the vehicle is placed in SPORT mode (press the CONTROLS button and then the SPORT button on the display screen). This mode will set suspension for maximum performance handling and is intended for spirited driving. • When SPORT mode is enabled, a flag will light up in the instrument cluster. NOTE: The SPORT setting will provide a firmer ride. 68
