Know what kind of control to look for.
This original category diagram is an orientation aid, not a picture of your exact trim. Use the written labels and your vehicle manual to identify the real control.
Step by step.
- 01
Choose a safe road and stabilize the vehicle before changing modes.
- 02
Locate the SPORT Mode switch on the center console.
- 03
Toggle the switch forward and hold it for approximately two seconds.
- 04
Confirm Sport illuminates in the instrument cluster before relying on the changed response.
- 05
Repeat the switch action to leave Sport Mode when its steering and shift calibration is no longer wanted.
Important limits
- Sport Mode slightly increases steering feedback and, with the automatic transmission, uses a more aggressive shift schedule.
- It does not increase tire grip or override road, weather or legal speed limits.
- Do not look down for the switch or cluster confirmation while traffic conditions require full attention.
Quick checks.
- ✓Hold the switch forward for the full approximate two-second interval.
- ✓Check the cluster for the Sport indication rather than assuming the request was accepted.
- ✓If the indication will not appear or a warning is shown, return to normal driving and have the system checked.
