CAUTION:
When downshifting from fifth gear
to fourth gear, caution should be
taken not to inadvertently press the
gear shift lever sideways in such a
manner that second gear is en-
gaged. Such a drastic downshift
may cause the engine speed to in-
crease to the point that the tachom-
eter will enter the red zone. Such
over-revving of the engine may
possibly cause engine damage.
NOTE:
o To shift into reverse, rest the le-
ver in neutral for at least 3 sec-
onds after your car is completely
stopped. Then move the lever
into the reverse position.
o Duringcoldweather,shiftingmay
be difficult until the transaxle lu-
bricant has warmed up. This is
normal and not harmful to the
transaxle.
