Driving your vehicle

Manual transaxle operation
• The manual transaxle has 6 forward
gears.
This shift pattern is imprinted on the
shift knob. The transaxle is fully syn-
chronized in all forward gears so shift-
ing to either a higher or a lower gear is
easily accomplished.
• Depress the clutch pedal down fully
while shifting, then release it slowly.
If your vehicle is equipped with an igni-
tion lock switch, the engine will not
start when starting the engine without
depressing the clutch pedal.
• The shift lever must return to the neutral
position before shifting into R (Reverse).
The button located immediately below
the shift knob must be pushed upward
(Type A) or the ring located below the
shift knob must be pulled upward (Type
B). while moving the shift lever to the R
(Reverse) position.
• Make sure the vehicle is completely
stopped before shifting into R
(Reverse).
Never operate the engine with the
tachometer (rpm) in the red zone.
MANUAL TRANSAXLE (IF EQUIPPED)
CAUTION
• When downshifting from 5 (Fifth)
gear to 4 (Fourth) gear, caution
should be taken not to inadvertent-
ly move the shift lever sideways in
such a manner that second gear is
engaged. Such a drastic downshift
may cause the engine speed to
increase to the point that the
tachometer will enter the red-zone.
Such over-revving of the engine
may possibly cause engine and
transaxle damage.
• Do not downshift more than 2
gears or downshift the gear when
the engine is running at high
speed (5,000 RPM or higher). Such
a downshifting may damage the
engine, clutch and the transaxle.
• When shifting between 5th and
6th gear, you should always push
the gear level all the way to the
right. You could otherwise shift
unintentionally into 3rd or 4th
gear and damage the transaxle.
The button (1) must be pushed while
moving the shift lever.
The shift lever can be moved without
pushing the button (1).
