while shifting; then release it slowly.

must be put in neutral before being shifted
to reverse.
When you hear this noise, consult an
Authorized Mazda Dealer as soon as
possible.
(6-speed transmission)
Vehicles with 6-speed transmission have
been equipped with a device to prevent
shifting to reverse by mistake. Apply
greater than normal force when shifting to
reverse.
WARNING

Driving with worn disc pads is
dangerous. The brakes could fail and
cause a serious accident. As soon as
you hear a screeching noise consult
an Authorized Mazda Dealer.

Automotive readers have rated 2003 Mazda MX 5 Miata Owners Manual 1.0 out of 1.0 based on 1 product reviews. No matter what I do this will not download. I have followed all instructions and even the instructions for override because Windows states this software has undesirable problems ( but it makes the same claim for all Mazda Manuals I've found on the net) Now I am also unablre to review pages of the manual. I'm being stopped at the cover. I need access to this manual. Please help.
