Here’s how to operate
your transmission:

FIRST
(1):
Press the clutch and shift into FIRST
(1).
Then, slowly let up on the clutch pedal as you press the
accelerator pedal.
You can shift into FIRST
(1)
when you’re going less
than
20
mph
(32
km/h).
If you’ve come to a complete
stop and it’s hard to shift into FIRST
(l),
put the shift
lever in NEUTRAL
(N)
and
let up on the clutch. Press
the clutch pedal back down. Then shift into FIRST
(1).
SECOND
(2):
Press the clutch pedal to the
floor
as you let up on the accelerator pedal and shift into
SECOND
(2).
Then, slowly let up on the clutch pedal
as
you press the accelerator pedal.
THIRD
(3),
FOURTH
(4)
and
FIFTH
(5):
Shift into
THIRD
(3),
FOURTH
(4)
and FIFTH
(5)
the same way
you
do
for SECOND
(2).
Slowly let up on the clutch as
you press the accelerator pedal.
To
stop, let up on the accelerator pedal and press the
brake pedal. Just before the vehicle stops, press
the clutch pedal and brake pedal, and shift into
NEUTRAL (N).
NEUTRAL
(N):
Use this position when you start or
idle your engine.
REVERSE (R):
To back up, press the clutch pedal
and
shift into REVERSE (R).
Let
up on
the
clutch pedal
slowly while pressing the accelerator pedal.
I
NOTICE:
Shift
to
REVERSE
(R)
only
after
your
vehicle
is
stopped. Shifting
to
REVERSE
(R)
while
your
vehicle
is
moving
could
damage
your
transmission.
Also use REVERSE
(R),
along with
the
parking brake,
for parking your vehicle.
