Maxim um Recom mended Downshift Speed s
Reverse Shifting
To shift into REVERSE, bring the vehicle to a complete
stop . Press the clutch and pause briefly to allow the gear
train to stop rotating. Beginning from the NEUTRAL
position, move the shift lever in one quick, smooth
motion straight across and into the REVERSE area (the
driver will feel a firm “click” as the shifter passes the
“knock-over”). Com plete the shift by pulling the shift
lever into REVERSE.
CAUTIO N!
Failu re to follow the maxim um recom mended down-
shiftin g speed s may cause the engin e to oversp eed
and/or damage the clutch disc, even if the clutch
pedal is pressed .
Manual Transmission Downshift Speed s in MPH
(KM/H)
The “knock-over” prevents the driver from accidentally
entering the REVERSE shift area and warns the driver
that they are abou t to shift the transm ission into RE-
VERSE. Due to this featu re, a slow shift to REVERSE can
be perceived as a high shift effort.
