The paddle shifter is available when the shift lever is in the D (Drive) position or the manual shift mode.

With the shift lever in the D position

The paddle shifter will operate when the vehicle speed is more than 6mph.

Pull back on the [+] paddle (right side) to upshift or the [-] paddle (left side) to downshift. You will see the gear change in the LCD cluster display.

- Pull back on the [+] paddle (right side) for more than one second.
- Toggle the gear shift lever from 'D' (Drive) to the manual gate on the left side (towards the driver) and then toggle it back to the normal 'D' position.
