Lincoln Aviator: Transmission / SelectShift Automatic™ Transmission
Your vehicle has a SelectShift Automatic
transmission. The SelectShift Automatic
transmission gives you the ability to change
gears up or down, without a clutch, as
preferred.
To prevent the engine from running at too
low an RPM, which could cause it to stall,
SelectShift still makes some downshifts if it
determines that you have not downshifted
in time. Although SelectShift makes some
downshifts for you, it still allows you to
downshift at any time if the SelectShift
determines that damage to the engine from
over-revving cannot occur.
Note: Engine damage could occur if you
maintain excessive engine revving without
shifting.
Note: Vehicles have either steering wheel
controls or gearshift lever controls.
SelectShift could upshift if the engine is
approaching the RPM limit. It can also be
upshifted manually by pressing the (+) button.
Pull the + paddle on the steering wheel or
push the + button on the gearshift lever to
activate SelectShift.
- Pull the right paddle (+) to upshift.
- Pull the left paddle (–) to downshift.

SelectShift in drive (D):
- Provides a temporary manual mode for
performing more demanding maneuvers
where you require extra control of gear
selection, for example, when towing or
overtaking. This mode holds a selected
gear for a temporary period of time
dependent on driver inputs, for example,
steering or accelerator pedal input.
The instrument cluster displays your currently
selected gear. If you request a gear not
available due to vehicle conditions, low
speed, too high of an engine speed for the
requested gear selection, the current gear
flashes three times.
Note: At full accelerator pedal travel, the
transmission downshifts for maximum
performance.
Note: Stay in Neutral mode is a temporary
vehicle state that works with the engine in
a running or OFF state. Once in this mode,
maintain sufficient battery voltage, or your
vehicle returns to park (P) if left active for an
extended period of time when the engine is
off...
WARNING: When doing this
procedure, you need to take the
transmission out of park (P) which means
your vehicle can roll freely. To avoid
unwanted vehicle movement, always fully
apply the parking brake prior to doing this
procedure...
