Manual Transmission Shift Pattern

5-speed transmission

6-speed transmission

Neutral position

Neutral position

The vehicle is equipped with either a 5-

speed or 6-speed manual transmission.

The shift pattern for each is shown above.

Depress the clutch pedal all the way down

while shifting; then release it slowly.

(5-speed transmission)

A safety feature prevents accidental

shifting from 5 to R (reverse). The shift

lever must be put in neutral before being

shifted to R.

(6-speed transmission)

Vehicles with 6-speed transmission are

equipped with a device to prevent shifting

to R (reverse) by mistake. Push the shift

lever downward and shift to R.

WARNING

Do not use sudden engine braking on

slippery road surfaces or at high

speeds:

Shifting down while driving on wet,

snowy, or frozen roads, or while

driving at high speeds causes sudden

engine braking, which is dangerous.

The sudden change in tire speed

could cause the tires to skid. This

could lead to loss of vehicle control

and an accident.

Be sure to leave the shift lever in 1 or R

position and set the parking brake

when leaving the vehicle unattended:

Otherwise the vehicle could move

and cause an accident.
