stopped before shifting into R (Reverse).
Never   operate   the   engine    with   the
tachometer (rpm) in the red  zone.

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 engaged. Such a drastic
downshift may cause the engine speed to
increase to the point that the tachometer

revving of the engine may possibly cause
engine damage.
