o R (Reverse):
Sports Mode
!
CAUTION:
Use for backing up the vehicle. Bring the car to
a  complete  stop  before  shifting the  selector
lever to "R"  position.
o
In sports mode, the driver  must execute
upward  shifts  in  accordance with  pre-
vailing  road  conditions, taking  care  to
keep  the  engine  speed  below  the  red
zone.
For engine protection, upward shifts are
made  automatically   when   the  engine
rpm reaches  the red  zone.
By  rapidly   moving  the  selector   lever
backwards (-) twice it is possible to skip
one gear, i.e., 3rd to 1st, 4th to 2nd or 5th
to  3rd.  Since   sudden  engine  braking
and/or  rapid  acceleration  can  cause  a
loss  of  traction,   however,  downshifts
must  be made  carefully  in  accordance
with  the vehicle's  speed.

o  N (Neutral):
o
o
In the  "N" position, the transaxle  is in neutral,
which means that  no gears are engaged. The
engine can be started with the shift lever in "N"
position,  although  this  is  not  recommended
except  if  the  engine  stalls  while  the   car  is
moving.
C090F02NF
Whether the vehicle is  stationary or in motion,
sports mode is selected by pushing the selector
lever from the "D" position into the manual gate.
To  return  to  "D"  range  operation,  push  the
selector lever back  into the main gate.
In sports mode, moving the selector lever back-
wards and forwards can make rapid gearshifts
simple. In  contrast to a  manual transaxle, the
sports mode  allows gearshifts  with the accel-
erator pedal  depressed.
UP (+) : Push the lever forward once to shift up
one gear.
DOWN (-)  : Pull  the lever backwards  once to
shift down one  gear.
C090E02NF-GAT
o  D  (Drive):
NOTE:
Use for  normal driving.  Bring the vehicle  to a
complete stop before shifting the selector to "D"
position. The  transaxle will  automatically shift
through a  four/five gear  sequence.
o
In  sports  mode, only  the  four/five  for-
ward gears can be selected. To reverse or
park the vehicle, move the selector lever
to the  "R" or "P" position  as required.
In  sports  mode,  downward   shifts  are
made  automatically   when  the  vehicle
slows down. When the vehicle stops, 1st
gear is  automatically  selected.
o
SKIP : By  rapidly moving the selector  forward
or  backward twice,  it is  possible  to skip  one
gear, i.e. 1st to  3rd or 3rd to 1st .
