MANUAL TRANSMISSION
Using the Clutch
Note:
Failure to fully depress the clutch
pedal to the floor may cause increased shift
efforts, prematurely wear transmission
components or damage the transmission.
Note:
Do not drive with your foot resting on
the clutch pedal or use the clutch pedal to
hold your vehicle at a standstill while
waiting on a hill. These actions will reduce
the life of the clutch and could nullify a
clutch warranty claim.

Manual transmission vehicles have a
starter interlock that prevents cranking the
engine unless the clutch pedal is fully
depressed.
Starting Your Vehicle
WARNING
Make sure the floor mat is positioned
correctly so that it does not interfere

release the clutch pedal while slowly

During each shift, make sure you fully
depress the clutch pedal.

Note:
Do not shift the gearshift lever to first
