Wireless Cellular Phone
Charging System (if equipped)
On certain models, the vehicle
comes equipped with a wireless cel-
lular phone charger.
The system is available when all
doors are closed, and when the
Engine Start/Stop button is in the
ACC, ON or START position.
To use the wireless cellular phone
charging system, open the cover by
pushing it straight up.
After use, to close the cover, slightly
push up the cover again.
To charge a cellular phone
The wireless cellular phone charging
system charges only the Qi-enabled
cellular phones ( ). Read the label
on the cellular phone accessory
cover or visit your cellular phone
manufacturer's website to check
whether your cellular phone supports
the Qi technology.
The wireless charging process starts
when you put a Qi-enabled cellular
phone on the wireless charging unit.
1. Remove other items, including the
smart key, from the wireless charg-
ing unit. If not, the wireless charg-
ing process may be interrupted.
Place the cellular phone on the
center of the charging pad ( ).
2. The indicator light is orange when
the cellular phone is charging. The
indicator light turns green when
phone charging is complete.
3. You can turn ON or OFF the wire-
less charging function in the user
settings mode on the instrument
cluster. For further information,
refer to the "LCD Display Modes"
in this chapter.If your cellular phone is not charging:
- Slightly change the position of the
cellular phone on the charging pad.
- Make sure the indicator light is
orange.
Depending on the cellular phone type,
the indicator light may not turn green
even though the charging is complete.
The indicator light will blink orange for
10 seconds if there is a malfunction in
the wireless charging system.
In this case, temporarily stop the
charging process, and re-attempt to
charge your cellular phone again.
The system warns you with a mes-
sage on the LCD display if the cellular
phone is still on the wireless charging
unit after the engine is turned OFF
and the front door is opened.
Information
For some manufacturers' cellular
phones, the system may not warn you
even though the cellular phone is left
on the wireless charging unit. This is
due to the particular characteristic of
the cellular phone and not a malfunc-
tion of the wireless charging.

Driving your vehicle
Using the clutch
The clutch pedal should be
depressed all the way before:
- Starting the engine
The engine will not start without
depressing the clutch pedal.
- Shifting into gear, up shifting to the
next higher gear, or down shifting
to the next lower gear.
When releasing the clutch pedal,
release it slowly. The clutch pedal
should always be fully released while
driving.To prevent unnecessary wear or
damage to the clutch:
• Do not rest your foot on the
clutch pedal while driving.
• Do not hold the vehicle with the
clutch on an incline, while wait-
ing for the traffic light, etc.
• Always depress the clutch pedal
down fully to prevent noise or
damage.
• Do not repeatedly depress the
clutch pedal before the clutch
pedal returns back to its original
position when released.
• Do not start with the 2
nd(sec-
ond) gear engaged except when
you start on a slippery road.
• Do not drive with cargo loaded
more than the recommend load-
ing capacity.
Shifting to R (Reverse)
This manual transmission is
designed with a detent to differenti-
ate 1st and R (Reverse) gear. To shift
into reverse, you must shift past 1st
gear and the detent in order to get
into the R (Reverse) gear gate.
• R (Reverse) is located to the left
side of the 1st gear.
• After the vehicle is stoped, push
the shift lever to the left side of the
1st gear past the detent then push
the shift lever upward.
NOTICE
5
To start or reverse the vehicle,
release the clutch pedal slowly
after shifting the gear. Sudden
release of the clutch pedal may
result in an abrupt accident.
CAUTION
OIK057180N
5-14
• If you try to shift to the 1st gear
too quickly, it is possible to shift
to R (Reverse) instead of 1st
gear.
• Before driving you should learn
how to shift to R (Reverse), to
1st gear or 2nd gear.
• Shift to R only when the vehicle
is stationary. When the shift
lever is pressed to the left, a
slight resistance has to be over-
come.
• When shifting into 5th or 6th
gear, push the shift lever to the
right. Otherwise, inadvertently
shifting to the 3rd or 4th gear
may cause engine damage.
Downshifting
Down shift to a lower gear when
slowing down in heavy traffic or driv-
ing up a steep hill to prevent high
engine loads.
Also, downshifting reduces the
chance of stalling and helps reaccel-
erate the vehicle when you need to
increase your speed.
When the vehicle is going downhill,
downshifting helps maintain safe
speed by providing a load from the
engine and results in less wear on
the brakes.To prevent damage to the engine,
clutch and transmission:
• When downshifting from 5
th
gear to 4thgear, be careful not to
inadvertently push the shift
lever sideways engaging the 2
nd
gear. A drastic downshift may
cause the engine speed to
increase to the point the
tachometer will enter the red-
zone and may cause engine
damage.
• Do not downshift more than two
gear at a time or downshift the
gear when the engine is running
at high speed (5,000 rpm or
higher).
Such down shifting may damage
the engine, clutch and the trans-
mission.
