Manual transmission (if so equipped)

WARNING

● Do not downshift abruptly on slippery roads. This may cause a loss of control.
● Do not over-rev the engine when shifting to a lower gear. This may cause a loss of control or engine damage.

CAUTION

● Do not rest your foot on the clutch pedal while driving. This may cause clutch damage.

● Fully depress the clutch pedal before shifting to help prevent transmission damage.

● Stop your vehicle completely before shifting into R (Reverse).

● When the vehicle is stopped with the engine running (for example, at a stop light), shift to N (Neutral) and release the clutch pedal with the foot brake applied.
