CAUTION

l

Keep your foot off the clutch pedal
except when shifting gears. Also,
don't use the clutch to hold the
vehicle on an upgrade. Riding the
clutch will cause needless clutch
wear and damage.

l

Make sure the vehicle comes to a
complete stop before shifting to R.
Shifting to R while the vehicle is still
moving may damage the transaxle.

NOTE

If shifting to R is difficult, shift back
into neutral, release the clutch pedal,
and try again.

Recommendations for Shifting

Upshifting

For normal acceleration, we recommend
these shift points.

Gear

Vehicle speed

21 km/h (13 mph)

2 to 3

39 km/h (24 mph)

3 to 4

55 km/h (34 mph)

4 to 5

For cruising

Gear

Vehicle speed

1 to 2

18 km/h (11 mph)

2 to 3

29 km/h (18 mph)

3 to 4

47 km/h (29 mph)

4 to 5

68 km/h (42 mph)

Downshifting

When you must slow down in heavy
traffic or on a steep

upgrade

, downshift

before the engine starts to overwork. This
reduces the chance of stalling and gives
better acceleration when you need more
speed.
On a steep

downgrade

, downshifting

helps maintain safe speed and prolongs
brake life.
