Shifting the 5 Speed
The fully synchronized manual
transmission is very easy to shift
up or down. When you slow
down for traffic, steep hills, or
corners, shift to a lower gear
before the engine starts to labor.
When descending steep grades,
select a lower gear to help
maintain a safe speed and to
prevent the brakes from over-
heating.
When shifting, depress the clutch pedal fully, shift gears and then
release the clutch gradually. Do not speed-shift; allow time for the
gears to synchronize.
To prevent grinding the gears when shifting into reverse, hold the
clutch pedal depressed briefly before shifting, or shift the lever into
one of the forward gears before selecting reverse.
A safety lockout prevents accidental shifting straight from 5th to
Reverse.
Avoid rapid acceleration or sudden deceleration when either or
both driving wheels are on a slippery surface. Decreased traction
could cause loss of directional control.
CAUTION:
Do not drive with your foot on the clutch pedal as this will cause
premature wear of clutch components.
Do not shift into reverse while the car is moving.
