CAUTION

Ø 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.

Ø 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

transmission.

NOTE

If shifting to R is difficult, shift back into

neutral, release the clutch pedal, and try

again.

qRecommendations for Shifting

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.
