PADDLE SHIFT MODE Paddle Shift Mode is a driver-interactive transmission feature that offers manual gear shifting to provide you with more control of the vehicle. Paddle Shift Mode 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, mountain driving, trailer towing, and many other situations. Refer to the "Starting And Operating" section of your vehicle's Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details. FUEL ECONOMY (ECO) MODE The Fuel Economy (ECO) mode can improve the vehicle's overall fuel economy during normal driving conditions. Each time the vehicle is started ECO mode is engaged and an amber light in the center stack of the instrument panel will be illuminated. To disable ECO mode, push the "ECO" switch in the center stack of the instrument panel and the amber light will go out indicating ECO mode is disabled. When the Fuel Economy (ECO) Mode is engaged, the vehicle control systems will change the following: • The transmission will upshift sooner and downshift later. • The torque converter clutch may engage at lower engine speeds and remain on longer. • The overall driving performance will be more conservative. • Vehicles with Quadra-Lift™ air suspension will operate in "Aero" mode over a broader speed range. Refer to "Quadra-Lift™" in "Starting and Operating" for further information. ECO Switch • Some ECO mode functions may be temporarily inhibited based on temperature and other factors. 46
