Manual Transmission
WARNING
• Do not downshift abruptly on slippery roads. This may cause a loss of control.
• Do not over-rev the engine when shifting to a lower gear. This may cause a loss of control or engine damage.
CAUTION
• Do not rest your foot on the clutch pedal while driving. This may damage the clutch.
• Fully depress the clutch pedal before shifting to help prevent transmission damage.
• Stop your vehicle completely before shifting into R (Reverse).
• When the vehicle is stopped for a period of time, for example at a stop light, shift to N (Neutral) and release the clutch pedal with the foot brake applied.
