turning. To securely latch the gearshift in the P
(Park) position, pull it toward you, push it
completely counterclockwise against the stop,
and then push it toward the instrument panel.
*
[DR10650( ALL)03/94]
The gearshift is securely latched in P (Park) if
you cannot rotate it in a clockwise direction
without lifting it toward you.

When you drive down steep hills, downshifting
helps you keep a safe speed and helps prevent
unnecessary wear on the brakes.
*
[DR15300(B F )03/95]
When you come to a stop, do not downshift
through each gear. Disengage the clutch and use
the brake as necessary. Downshifting through
the gears decreases your vehicle's fuel economy.
*
[DR15400(B F )05/95]
RWARNING
Continued use of a damaged or worn
clutch, prolonged clutch slippage or
downshifting at excessive speeds can
result in a failure of the engine,
transmission or clutch components.

shift into them with your vehicle in motion. The
clutch pedal should be fully depressed when
shifting.
*
[DR15625(B F )04/94]
NOTE: Shifting during extremely low rpm's
can result in a momentary audible
rattle which disappears as vehicle
rpm's are increased. Shifting at higher
speeds will eliminate this sound.
