SECOND (2): Press the clutch peaar as you let up on
the accelerator pedal and shift into SECOND ( 2 ) . Then,
slowly let up on the clutch pedal as you press the
accelerator pedal.
THIRD (3), FOURTH (4), FIFTH (5) AND
SIXTH
(6):
Shift into THIRD (3), FOURTH (4),
FIFTH (5) AND SIXTH (6) gear the same way you do
for SECOND (2). Slowly let up on the clutch pedal as
you press the accelerator pedal.
To Stop, let up on the accelerator pedal and press the
brake pedal. Just before the vehicle stops, press the
clutch pedal and the brake pedal, and shift to
NEUTRAL (N).
NEUTRAL
(N):
Use this position when you start or
idle your engine.
REVERSE
(R):
To back up, press down the clutch
pedal and shift into REVERSE (R). Let up on the clutch
pedal slowly while pressing the accelerator pedal. If you
shift from SIXTH (6) into REVERSE (R), the shift
lever must be first placed in the NEUTRAL (N) position
centered between SECOND ( 2 ) and THIRD ( 3 ) prior to
shifting into REVERSE (R).
Your six-speed manual transmission has a feature that
allows you to safely shift into REVERSE (R) while the
vehicle is rolling (at less than 5 mph (8
km/h)).
You will
be locked-out if you try to shift into REVERSE (R) while
your vehicle is moving faster than 5 mph (8
km/h).
If you have turned your ignition off and wish to park
your car in REVERSE (R), you will have to move the
shift lever quickly to the right, "crashing" through the
high-load spring and then into gear.
