Clutch pedal
<Manual transmission vehicles>
Do not operate the vehicle with your foot on the
clutch pedal as doing so can shorten the service life
of the clutch. It may also cause the engine braking
and exhaust braking performance to deteriorate.
For details of clutch pedal usage when pulling away,
refer to “Precautions when setting the vehicle in
motion” on page 7-2.
For details of clutch pedal usage while driving, refer
to “Precautions when driving a manual transmission
vehicle” on page 7-5.
<Manual transmission vehicles>
CAUTION
•
Shifting from a forward gear to the reverse
gear or vice versa, should be done only after
the vehicle has come to a complete stop.
When backing up, always double check to
make sure that there is nothing in your path.
•
When the gearshift lever is in the neutral
position, never keep your hand on it. Such
forward or backward pressure on the lever
could cause the transmission to malfunc-
tion, especially if you use a gearshift lever
extender because the gearshift lever is very
likely to move even if the pressure on the
extender is slight.
•
Depress the clutch pedal fully whenever
changing gear. If you do not depress the
pedal completely, the clutch will slip and the
clutch disc will be damaged, which could
lead to an accident.
Gearshift lever
WARNING
When the gearshift lever is in the neutral
position, never keep your hand on it. Such
forward or backward pressure on the lever
could cause the vehicle to move accidentally,
possibly leading to an accident.
