MANUAL TRANSMISSION
Using the Clutch
Note:During each shift, you must fully pressthe clutch pedal to the floor and fullyrelease the accelerator. Failure to followthis may cause increased shift efforts,prematurely wear transmissioncomponents, or cause gear clash or damageto the transmission. Make sure you properlyposition the floor mat so it does not interferewith the full extension of the clutch pedal.
Note:If you attempt to shift when the drivewheels are spinning with a loss of traction,it is possible to cause damage to thetransmission. Do not attempt to shift whenthe drive wheels do not have traction.
Note:Do not drive with your foot resting onthe clutch pedal or use the clutch pedal tohold your vehicle at a standstill whilewaiting on a hill. These actions will reducethe life of the clutch.
Your vehicle has a twin disc clutch. Due tothe high performance of the powertrain, acertain amount of noise from thetransmission is normal.
The manual transmission has a starterinterlock that prevents cranking the engineunless you fully press the clutch pedal.
To start the vehicle:
1.Make sure the parking brake is fully set.
2.Press the clutch pedal to the floor, thenput the transmission in neutral (N).
3.Start the engine, then press the brakepedal and release the parking brake.
4.Move the transmission to position 1 ,then slowly release the clutch pedalwhile slowly pressing on theaccelerator.
5.To reverse, lift up on the reverselockout ring found under the shift knoband move the transmission fully to theleft and forward.

•Increased emission levels.
•Reduced engine performance.
•Reduced fuel economy.
•Degraded brake performance.
We recommend Motorcraft motor oil foryour vehicle. If Motorcraft oil is notavailable, use motor oils of therecommended viscosity grade that meetAPI SN requirements and display the APICertification Mark for gasoline engines.
