WARNING
227) Depress the clutch pedal fully to
change gear correctly. It is therefore
essential that there is nothing under the
pedals: make sure the mats are lying flat
and do not get in the way of the pedals.
IMPORTANT
105) Do not put the gearshift lever into the
reverse position while the vehicle is moving
forward. Doing so could damage the
transmission.
106) Do not rest your foot on the clutch
pedal while driving as this will cause
premature clutch wear or damage.
107) Do not coast in the “N” (Neutral)
position.
108) Do not use the gearshift lever as a
hand rest, because this can result in
premature wear of the transmission shift
forks.
109) Quick or slight clutch engagement
made while the engine is running at high
speed will cause damage to the clutch and
transmission because the tractive force is
very great.
110) Do not depress the gearshift lever
when moving it to any position other than
the “R” (Reverse) position. If you always
depress the gearshift lever when moving it,
you could unintentionally move the gearshift
lever to the “R” (Reverse) position and
cause an accident and/or a transmission
fault.
