Rotary Dial Shift Modes
Automatic Return to Park
The vehicle has a safety feature that will automatically shift the transmission into P when one of the following conditions are met at low speed:
- The ignition is turned off and vehicle falls below low speed threshold
- The driver door is opened with the seat belt unlatched
- Unlatching the seatbelt while the driver door is open
Stay in Neutral Mode
If necessary for the vehicle to stay in N without the driver present, such as being pulled through a car wash, this mode disables Return to Park. In Stay in Neutral the system will remain awake draining the battery if the engine is off. When you enter neutral at low speed a message will be displayed stating press the M button to stay in neutral mode. Then, if the driver presses the M button within the time limit, the message Stay in Neutral Mode appears on the multifunction display. During this mode the N position on the GSM flashes continuously and the instrument cluster will display N as the selected gear. To exit the Stay in Neutral Mode, shift out of neutral.
