IGNITION SWITCH
WARNING
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS
INJURY or DEATH, take the following
precautions:

[NEVER allow children or any person
who is unfamiliar with the vehicle to
touch the ignition switch or related
parts. Unexpected and sudden
vehicle movement can occur.

[NEVER reach through the steering
wheel for the ignition switch, or any
other control, whilst the vehicle is in
motion. The presence of your hand
or arm in this area may cause a loss
of vehicle control resulting in an
accident.
Key ignition switch (if equipped)
OIB054010
WARNING

[NEVER turn the ignition switch to
the LOCK or ACC position whilst
the vehicle is in motion except in
an emergency. This will result in
the engine turning off and loss of
power assist for the steering and
brake systems. This may lead to loss
of directional control and braking
function, which could cause an
accident.

[Before leaving the driver’s seat,
always make sure the shift lever
is in the 1st gear when the vehicle
is parked on an uphill and in
R(Reverse) on a downhill (for manual
transmission vehicle), or P (Park, for
automatic transmission/dual clutch
transmission vehicle) position, apply
the parking brake, and turn the
ignition switch to the LOCK position.
Unexpected vehicle movement may
occur if these precautions are not
followed.
NOTICE
Never use aftermarket keyhole covers.
This may generate start-up failure due
to communication failure.

[Do not start the vehicle with the
accelerator pedal depressed. The
vehicle can move and lead to an
accident.

[Wait until the engine RPM is normal.
The vehicle may suddenly move if
the brake pedal is released when the
RPM is high.

Manual transmission operation
The manual transmission has 5 (or 6)
forward gears. The transmission is fully
synchronized in all forward gears so
shifting to either a higher or a lower gear
is easily accomplished
WARNING
Before leaving the driver’s seat, always
make sure the shift lever is in in the
1st gear when the vehicle is parked
on an uphill and in R (Reverse) on
a downhill, set the parking brake,
and place the ignition switch in the
LOCK/OFF position. Unexpected
vehicle movement may occur if these
precautions are not followed.
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 the 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 the first gear or R (Reverse)
gear.

Driving your vehicle

[To avoid premature clutch wear
and damage, do not drive with your
foot resting on the clutch pedal.
Also, don’t use the clutch to hold the
vehicle stopped on an uphill grade,
whilst waiting for a traffic light, etc.

[Do not use the shift lever as a
handrest during driving, as this can
result in premature wear of the
transmission shift forks.

[To prevent possible damage to the
clutch system, do not start with the
2nd (second) gear engaged except
when you start on a slippery road.
WARNING

[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
the 1st gear when the vehicle is
parked on a level or uphill grade, and
shifted into R (Reverse) on a downhill
grade. Unexpected and sudden
vehicle movement can occur if these
precautions are not followed in the
order identified.

[Do not use the engine brake (shifting
from a high gear to lower gear)
rapidly on slippery roads. The vehicle
may slip causing an accident.
Using the clutch
The clutch should be pressed all the way
to the floor before shifting, then released
slowly. The clutch pedal should always
be fully released whilst driving. Do not
rest your foot on the clutch pedal whilst
driving. This can cause unnecessary
wear. Do not partially engage the clutch
to hold the vehicle on an incline. This
causes unnecessary wear. Use the
foot brake or parking brake to hold the
vehicle on an incline. Do not operate the
clutch pedal rapidly and repeatedly.
CAUTION
When operating the clutch pedal, press
the clutch pedal down fully. If you don’t
press the clutch pedal fully, the clutch
may be damaged or noise may occur.
Downshifting
When you must slow down in heavy
traffic or whilst driving up steep hills,
downshift before the engine starts to
labour. Downshifting reduces the chance
of stalling and gives better acceleration
when you again need to increase your
speed. When the vehicle is traveling
down steep hills, downshifting helps
maintain safe speed and prolongs brake
life.

Transmission ranges
The indicator in the instrument cluster
displays the shift lever position when the
ignition switch is in the ON position.
33DUN
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.
If you have done all of the above and
still cannot shift the lever out of P
(Park), see “Shift-Lock Release” in this
chapter.
The shift lever must be in P (Park) before
turning the engine off.
WARNING

[Shifting into P (Park) whilst 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.

[When parking on an incline, place the
shift lever in P (Park) and apply the
parking brake to prevent the vehicle
from rolling downhill.

[For safety, always engage the parking
brake with the shift lever in the P
(Park) position except for the case of
emergency parking.
55HYHUVH
Use this position to drive the vehicle
backward.
NOTICE
Always come to a complete stop before
shifting into or out of R (Reverse); you
may damage the transmission if you
shift into R (Reverse) whilst the vehicle
is in motion.
11HXWUDO
The wheels and transmission 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 any reason.
Always depress the brake pedal when
you are shifting from N (Neutral) to
another gear.
WARNING
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.
''ULYH
This is the normal driving position. The
transmission will automatically shift
through a 6-gear sequence, providing
the best fuel economy and power.
For extra power when passing another
vehicle or driving uphill, depress the
accelerator fully. The transmission will
automatically downshift to the next
lower gear (or gears, as appropriate).
