2. While pressing the brake pedal, pull both
shift paddles toward you and hold them
in that position. The launch system indi-
cator light will come on, and the launch
system enters standby mode.
3. Keep holding both shift paddles. In a
quick sequence of motions, release the
brake pedal, steadily press the accelera-
tor pedal to rev the engine to the desired
launch engine speed.
4. When ready, release both shift paddles at
the same time and further press the ac-
celerator pedal to launch the vehicle.
TIP
Letting off the accelerator pedal during the
launch sequence will cancel the launch sys-
tem.
The engine speed at launch must be be-
tween 5000–10000 r/min.
If you release one shift paddle, or if a sys-
tem restriction is detected during standby
mode, the launch system indicator light will
begin to flash and the launch will be can-
celled.
If the indicator light is flashing, release the
accelerator pedal and let the engine return
to idle speed. When the indicator light goes
off, you may start off normally or retry acti-
vating the launch system.
2nd gear may also be used with the launch
system instead unless high clutch tempera-
ture is detected and shifting into 2nd gear
while stopped is disabled.
