Manual transaxle operation
The manual transaxle has five forward
gears. The transaxle is fully synchronized
in all forward gears so shifting to either a
higher or a lower gear is easily accom-plished.To shift to R (Reverse), make sure the
vehicle 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
(Reverse):
1. Put the shift lever in neutral and
release the clutch pedal.
2. Depress the clutch pedal, and then shift into first or R (Reverse) gear.
✽✽
NOTICE
During cold weather, shifting may be
difficult until the transaxle lubricant
has warmed up.
Using the clutch
The clutch pedal should be depressed all
the way to the floor before:
- Starting the engine The engine will not start without
depressing the clutch pedal. (vehicles
equipped with engine start/stop button)
- Shifting When releasing the clutch pedal, release
it slowly. The clutch pedal should always
be released while driving.

Downshifting
Downshift when you must slow down in
heavy traffic or drive up a steep hill to
prevent engine load.
Also, downshifting reduces the chance of
stalling and can accelerate when you
need to increase your speed again.
When the vehicle is going downhill,
downshifting helps maintain safe speed
by providing brake power from the engine
and enables less wear on the brakes. Good driving practices
Never take the vehicle out of gear and
coast down a hill. This is extremely
dangerous.
Don't "ride" the brakes. This can cause the brakes and related parts to over-heat and malfunction.
When you are driving down a long hill,
slow down and shift to a lower gear.
Engine braking will help slow down the
vehicle.
Slow down before shifting to a lower gear. This will help avoid over-revving
the engine, which can cause damage.
Slow down when you encounter cross winds. This gives you much better con-
trol of your vehicle.
Be sure the vehicle is completely stopped before you shift into R
(Reverse) to prevent damage to the
transaxle.
Exercise extreme caution when driving on a slippery surface. Be especially
careful when braking, accelerating or
shifting gears. On a slippery surface,
an abrupt change in vehicle speed can
cause the drive wheels to lose traction
and may cause loss of vehicle controlresulting in an accidentCAUTION
To prevent damage to the engine:
When downshifting from 5th gear to 4th gear, be careful not to inad-
vertently push the shift leversideways engaging the 2nd gear. A drastic downshift may cause
the engine speed to increase to the point the tachometer will enter the red-zone.
Do not downshift more than one gear at a time or downshift the
gear when the engine is runningat high speed (5,000 RPM or high-er).

speeds and one reverse speed. The indi-
vidual speeds are selected automatically,
in the D (Drive) position.The indicator in the instrument cluster
displays the shift lever position when the
ignition switch is in the ON position.
P (Park)
Always come to a complete stop before
shifting into P (Park).
To shift from P (Park), you must depress
firmly on the brake pedal and make sure
your foot is off the accelerator pedal.
The shift lever must be in P (Park) before
turning the engine off.

Use this position to drive the vehicle
backward.

To reduce the risk of serious injury or death:
ALWAYS check the surrounding areas near your vehicle for peo-
ple, especially children, before
shifting a vehicle into D (Drive) or
R (Reverse).
Before leaving the driver’s seat, always make sure the shift lever
is in the P (Park) position, then
set the parking brake, and place
the ignition switch in the
LOCK/OFF position. Unexpected
and sudden vehicle movementcan occur if these precautions
are not followed.
WARNING
Shifting into P (Park) while the vehicle is in motion may cause
you to lose control of the vehicle.
After the vehicle has stopped, always make sure the shift lever
is in P (Park), apply the parking
brake, and turn the engine off.

N (Neutral)
The wheels and transaxle are not engaged.
Use N (Neutral) if you need to restart a
stalled engine, or if it is necessary to stop
with the engine ON. Shift into P (Park) if
you need to leave your vehicle for anyreason.
Always depress the brake pedal when
you are shifting from N (Neutral) to
another gear.
D (Drive)
This is the normal driving position. The
transaxle will automatically shift through
a 4-gear sequence, providing the best
fuel economy and power.
For extra power when passing another
vehicle or driving uphill, depress the
accelerator fully. The transaxle will auto-
matically downshift to the next lower gear
(or gears, as appropriate).

Whether the vehicle is stationary or in
motion, sports mode is selected by push-
ing the shift lever from the D (Drive) posi-
tion into the manual gate. To return to D
(Drive) range operation, push the shift
lever back into the main gate.
WARNING
Do not shift into gear unless your
foot is firmly on the brake pedal.
Shifting into gear when the engineis running at high speed can cause
the vehicle to move very rapidly.
You could lose control and hit peo-ple or objects.WARNING
NEVER allow anyone to ride in a
seat with the headrest removed.
