The shift lever can be moved
without pressing the button [A].
The button [A] must be pressed
while moving the shift lever to
R (Reverse).

Manual transmission operation

The manual transmission has 6 forward
gears. The transmission is fully synchro-
nized in all forward gears so shifting to
either a higher or a lower gear is easily ac-
complished
WARNING
Before leaving the driver's seat, always
make sure the shift lever is in 1st gear
when the vehicle is parked on a uphill and
in R (Reverse) on a downhill, set the park-
ing brake, and place the ignition switch in
the LOCK/OFF position. Unexpected ve-
hicle movement may occur if these pre-
cautions are not followed.
To shift to R (Reverse), make sure the ve-
hicle has completely stopped, and then
move the shift lever to neutral before
moving into R (Reverse).
When you've come to a complete stop
and it's hard to shift into 1st gear or R (Re-
verse):
1. Put the shift lever in neutral and release
the clutch pedal.
2. Depress the clutch pedal, and then shift

cult until the transmission lubricant has
