Gear Lever (manual transmission)
The gear lever is spring biased towards the 3rd/4th gear plane,
and must be moved against light spring pressure to the left before
selecting first or second gear, or against similar pressure to the
right before selecting 5th or 6th speed.
When changing gear, it is essential that the transmission is
notabusedby‘powershifting’;theclutchpedalmustbefully
depressed during each gear shift, and the throttle pedal eased
during upshifts. Driving pleasure will be enhanced when using a
light touch to guide the gear lever, allowing the tactile senses to
convey gear selection messages from the internal mechanism.
Engaging Reverse Gear: With the car at a complete standstill,
pause for a moment with the clutch pedal fully depressed before
moving the lever to the left, raising the lift collar beneath the
knob, and then further to the left before finally pushing forwards
to engage the gear.
NOTICE
Gearshifting without correct operation of the clutch
and throttle controls can result in severe damage to the trans-
mission and engine. Any damage caused by driving in this way
will not be covered by the New Vehicle Warranty.
