DS mode on automatic 370z. What do?

I’ll have to give this a go, I actually wonder if I may have gotten into this mode on accident before because I’ve had it do some aggressive downshifting in the mountains after switching back and forth but I never really paid attention if it has the S or not.

Alright I am back with more information. So no dealership knows about this and as you know, it is not in the owners manual. You can initiate this mode while driving so pedal or emergency brake positions is irrelevant. I have videos on how to turn it on, but I do not know how to attach them.

I also have another video turning it on while driving, showing that you cannot use the paddle shifters.

Best I could do is email you a video if you contact me: larmenta478@gmail.com.
