Driving your vehicle
MANUAL TRANSAXLE (IF EQUIPPED)
•
Depress the clutch pedal down fully
while shifting, then release it slowly.
CAUTION
If your vehicle is equipped with an igni-
tion lock switch, the engine will not
start when starting the engine without
depressing the clutch pedal.
• When downshifting from 5 (Fifth)
gear to 4 (Fourth) gear, caution
should be taken not to inadver-
tently move the shift lever side-
ways in such a manner that sec-
ond gear is engaged. Such a dras-
tic downshift may cause the
engine speed to increase to the
point that the tachometer will
enter the red-zone. Such over-
revving of the engine may possi-
bly cause engine and transaxle
damage.
•
•
The shift lever must return to the neu-
tral position before shifting into R
(Reverse). The button located immedi-
ately below the shift knob must be
pushed upward while moving the shift
lever to the R (Reverse) position.
N
Make sure the vehicle is completely
before shifting into R
stopped
(Reverse).
The shift lever can be moved without
pushing the button (1).
•
Do not downshift more than 2
gears or downshift the gear when
the engine is running at high
speed (5,000 RPM or higher).
Such a downshifting may damage
the engine, clutch and the
transaxle.
Never operate the engine with the
tachometer (rpm) in the red zone.
The button (1) must be pushed while
moving the shift lever.

Manual transaxle operation
•
The manual transaxle has 6 forward
gears.
This shift pattern is imprinted on the
shift knob. The transaxle is fully syn-
chronized in all forward gears so shift-
ing to either a higher or a lower gear is
easily accomplished.
