Press the manual button and select 2 or 3, and the tranny will bypass 1st and start in second. Lower torque going to the ground improves traction in low traction conditions, but the larger gear being used at low rpm from a stop creates more heat
Shift lock allowsyou to select a shifter positon from park without pressing the brake pedal for example if your battery dies in park, and you need to shift to neutral.
Also useful if you like pushing your car around instead of turning it on all the time.
