Hi folks. I've just changed an 08 Zetec Manual gearbox Kuga for a 63 Titanium with powershift. How do I get auto change to come back once i've engaged a manual override. For example going down a long 30mph hill I engaged 3rd gear to hold speed and when I was on the level I wished to return to auto change. I thought of shifting into Sport and back again but this seems too contrived.

Is there a way to do this please. I cannot find any mention of it in the handbook. I've only had it a few days and only used it locally so far.
I will be towing our 1500Kg caravan on Monday up to Wales. The old car was OK but I hope the Tit. will be better. I wanted auto, 163BHP and cruise plus the other one was getting on at nearly 5years and high mileage at 26K
