12 F Optional equipment
High-Performance Driving Features
Refer to your Owner Manual for important information about using the high-performance driving features.
Automatic Transmission Performance
Paddle Shifting
While in Drive (D), use either paddle on the back of the steering wheel to temporarily take control of gear selection. Automatic shifting returns after
7 seconds of cruising at a steady speed without any manual shifts, or when the vehicle stops.
Pull the right paddle to upshift and the left paddle to downshift. The current gear will be displayed on the instrument cluster or HUD F .
Move the shift lever to the left from Drive (D) into the gate marked +/– and use the paddles to manually upshift or downshift the transmission. If the current vehicle speed is too fast or too slow for the requested gear, the shift will not occur.
Performance Shifting
While driving in Sport Mode or Track Mode (V8 models), the transmission may hold the current gear during high cornering loads. When braking, the transmission will downshift to keep up engine speed for exiting the corner. When driving at a steady speed, the transmission will upshift to the appropriate gear.
Powertrain Braking
With the shift lever in Drive (D) when driving on steep grades where frequent braking is required, the transmission may downshift to help hold vehicle speed and reduce brake wear. Continuing to apply the brake pedal will cause the transmission to downshift until
3rd gear is reached. When the road levels out and the accelerator pedal is applied, the transmission will upshift to the appropriate gear.
Manual Transmission Shifting (V8 Models Only)
1-to-4 Shift – The 1st to 4th shift feature helps achieve the best possible fuel economy.
The 1-to-4 shift message will display on the instrument cluster when, from a stop,
acceleration and vehicle qualifications are met. When the shift message is displayed, the transmission can be shifted only from 1st to 4th gear. Forcing the shift lever into any other gear may damage the transmission.
Active Rev Match – Active Rev Match aids in smoother shifting by matching engine speed to the next selected gear.
Pull either REV MATCH paddle on the back of the steering wheel to activate or deactivate the system. When active, the current gear is displayed in amber on the instrument cluster.
See Driving and Operating in your Owner Manual.

Driver Assistance Systems
Side Blind Zone Alert/Lane Change Alert F
While driving, the Side Blind Zone Alert/Lane Change Alert displays a warning symbol on the left or right side mirror when a vehicle is detected in that side blind zone area or rapidly approaching that side blind zone area. The warning symbol flashes if a turn signal is activated when a vehicle has been detected.
Rear Parking Assist F
During low-speed maneuvers when in Reverse, the system provides “distance to closest object” information on the instrument cluster and sounds a beep. Five beeps sound when an object is very close.
Rear Cross Traffic Alert F
During low-speed maneuvers when in Reverse, the system warns of traffic coming from the left or right by displaying a visual alert on the Rear Vision Camera and sounding an audible tone.
To turn the alerts on or off, go to Vehicle > Collision/Detection Systems in the Settings menu and select the desired feature.
See Driving and Operating in your Owner Manual.
Tires
Tire Pressure Monitor
The Low Tire Pressure warning light on the instrument cluster illuminates when one or more of the vehicle’s tires is significantly underinflated. Fill the tires to the proper tire pressures listed on the Tire and Loading Information label located below the driver’s door latch. Current tire pressures can be viewed in the Driver Information Center (DIC).
Tire Sealant and Compressor Kit F
The tire sealant and compressor kit can be used to temporarily seal small punctures in the tread area of a tire. The kit is located under the trunk floor. Refer to the kit instructions for complete operating information.
Run-Flat Tires F
The run-flat tires eliminate the need for a spare tire. The tire design enables safe driving function during and after loss of pressure for 50 miles at a moderate speed. A tire pressure of 0 will display on the DIC. Driving only a short distance with a loss of pressure increases the chance that the tire can be repaired. Contact Roadside Assistance for the nearest run-flat tire servicing facility.
Summer Performance Tires F
Your vehicle may be equipped with summer performance tires that offer excellent dry and wet road performance. It is recommended to install winter tires that will provide additional traction in cold temperatures. See your Chevrolet dealer for information about winter tires.
