If you exceed the maximum speed
for the gear you are in, the engine
speed will enter into the tachometer’s
red zone. If this occurs, you may feel
the engine cut in and out. This is
caused by a limiter in the engine’s
computer controls. The engine will
run normally when you reduce the
rpm below the red zone.
The 6-speed manual transmission
has an electric lockout so you cannot
accidentally shift from fifth to
reverse instead of sixth while the
vehicle is moving. If you cannot shift
to reverse when the vehicle is
stopped:
Apply the parking brake, and turn
the ignition key to the
ACCESSORY (I) or the LOCK (0)
position.
Press the clutch pedal, and shift to
reverse.
With the clutch pedal still pressed,
start the engine.
If you need to use this procedure to
shift to reverse, your vehicle may be
developing a problem. Have the
vehicle checked by your dealer.
The engine speed limiter only works
when you upshift; engine speed is
not limited during downshifts.
Before downshifting, make sure the
engine will not go into the
tachometer’s red zone.
