■ Manual Transaxle Shift Pattern
The shift pattern of the transaxle is
conventional, as shown.
Press the clutch pedal all the way
down while shifting; then release it
slowly.
A safety feature prevents accidental
shifting from 5 to R. The shift lever
must be put in neutral before being
shifted to R.

NOTE
• Make sure the vehicle is
stopped before shifting to R.
• If shifting into reverse is
difficult, shift into neutral,
release the clutch pedal, and try
again.
CAUTION
!
Keep your foot off the clutch pedal
except when shifting gears. Also,
don’t use the clutch to hold the
vehicle on an upgrade. This will
avoid needless clutch wear and
damage.
