Manual Transmission
Operation
The manual transmission has 6 for-
ward gears. The transmission is fully
synchronized in all forward gears so
shifting to either a higher or a lower
gear is easily accomplished.To shift to R (Reverse), make sure
the vehicle has completely stopped,
and then move the shift lever to neu-
tral 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 1 (First) or R
(Reverse) gear.
Information
During cold weather, shifting may be
difficult until the transmission lubri-
cant has warmed up.
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.

The button (1) must be pressed while
moving the shift lever to R (Reverse).
Before leaving the driver's
seat, always set the parking
brake fully and shut the
engine off. Then make sure
the transmission is shifted
into 1st gear when the vehicle
is parked on a level or uphill
grade, and shifted into R
(Reverse) on a downhill
grade. Unexpected and sud-
den vehicle movement can
occur if these precautions are
not followed in the order iden-
tified.
Do not use the engine brake
(shifting from a high gear to
lower gear) rapidly on slip-
pery roads. The vehicle may
slip causing an accident.

To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death:
ALWAYS check the surround-
ing areas near your vehicle for
people, 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 posi-
tion. Unexpected and sudden
vehicle movement can occur
if these precautions are not
followed.
When using Manual Shift
Mode, use caution when shift-
ing from a higher gear to a
lower gear on slippery roads.
This could cause the tires to
slip and may result in an acci-
dent.

matically shifts depending on speed, accelerate pedal position. The individual
speeds are selected automatically, depending on the position of the shift lever.

Driving your vehicle
D (Drive)
This is the normal driving position.
The transmission will automatically
shift, providing the best fuel econo-
my and power.
For extra power when passing anoth-
er vehicle or driving uphill depress
the accelerator pedal further until
you feel the transmission downshift
to a lower gear.
The DRIVE MODE switch, located
on the shift lever console, allows the
driver to switch from NORMAL mode
to SPORT mode.
For more information, refer to
"Drive Mode Integrated Control
System" later in this chapter.
Manual shift mode
Whether the vehicle is stationary or
in motion, manual shift mode is
selected by pushing the shift lever
from the D (Drive) position into the
manual gate. To return to D (Drive)
range operation, push the shift lever
back into the main gate.In Manual Shift mode, moving the
shift lever backwards and forwards
will allow you to select the desired
range of gears for the current driving
conditions.
+ (Up) : Push the lever forward once
to shift up one gear.
- (Down) : Pull the lever backwards
once to shift down one
gear.
Information
• Only the eight forward gears can be
selected in Manual Shift mode. To
reverse or park the vehicle, move
the shift lever to the R (Reverse) or
P (Park) position as required.
• Downshifts are made automatically
when the vehicle slows down. When
the vehicle stops, 1
stgear is automat-
ically selected.
• When the engine rpm approaches
the red zone the transmission will
upshift automatically.
(Continued)
i
Do not shift into gear unless
your foot is firmly on the brake
pedal. Shifting into gear when
the engine is running at high
speed can cause the vehicle to
move very rapidly. You could
lose control of the vehicle and
hit people or objects.
