(MT)
GUID-B1DB94CE-54EB-44B7-A225-FFE2531DC9CD
WARNING:
. Do not downshift abruptly on slippery roads.
This may cause a loss of vehicle control.
. Do not over-rev the engine when shifting to
a lower gear. This may cause a loss of
vehicle control or engine damage.
CAUTION:
. Do not rest your foot on the clutch pedal
while driving. This may damage the clutch
system.
. Fully depress the clutch pedal before shift-
ing to help prevent transmission damage.
. Stop the vehicle completely before shifting
into the “R” (Reverse) position.
. When the vehicle is stopped for a period of
time, for example waiting at stoplights, shift
to the “N” (Neutral) position and release the
clutch pedal with the foot brake pedal
depressed.
. Do not shift to the "N" (Neutral) position
while driving. Doing so may result in an
accident due to loss of engine braking.

1. After starting the engine, depress the clutch pedal
to the floor and move the shift lever to the “1” (1st)
or “R” (Reverse) position.
2. Slowly depress the accelerator pedal, releasing
the clutch pedal and parking brake at the same
time.
Shifting gear
GUID-97255509-03D7-4C25-9132-A5DDE257E320
To change gears, or when upshifting or downshifting,
fully depress the clutch pedal, shift into the appropriate
gear, then slowly and smoothly release the clutch
pedal.
To ensure smooth gear changes, operate the shift gear
after fully depressing the clutch pedal. If not, a gear
noise may be heard and transmission damage could
occur.
Start the vehicle in the “1” (1st) position and shift to
the “2” (2nd), “3” (3rd), “4” (4th) and “5” (5th) gear in
sequence according to the vehicle speed.
If it is difficult to move the shift lever into the “R”
(Reverse) or “1” (1st) position, shift to the “N” (Neutral)
position, and then release the clutch pedal once. Fully
depress the clutch pedal again and shift into “R” or “1”.
You cannot shift directly from the “5” (5th) position into
the “R” (Reverse) position. First shift into the “N”
(Neutral) position, then shift into the “R” (Reverse)
position.
Suggested maximum speed in each gear
GUID-72CD58E2-EE05-4E5B-9EC1-51B515A92638
Downshift to a lower gear if the engine is not running
smoothly, or if you need to accelerate.
Do not exceed the maximum suggested speed (shown
below) in any gear. For level road driving, use the
highest gear suggested for that speed. Always observe
posted speed limits, and drive according to the road
conditions which will ensure safe operation. Do not
over-rev the engine when shifting to a lower gear as it
may cause engine damage or loss of vehicle control.
