To reduce risk of serious injury
or death, NEVER allow children
or any person who is unfamiliar
with the vehicle to touch the
Engine Start/Stop button or
related parts. Unexpected and
sudden vehicle movement can
occur.
WARNING
NEVER press the Engine Start/

If the vehicle is still moving, you
can restart the engine without
depressing the brake pedal by
pressing the Engine Start/Stop
button with the shift lever in the
N (Neutral) position.
This may lead to loss of direc-
tional control and braking
function, which could cause
an accident.
Before leaving the driver's
seat, always make sure the
vehicle is in neutral (for manu-
al transmission vehicle) or P
(Park, for automatic transmis-
sion vehicle), apply the park-
ing brake, press the Engine
Start/ Stop button to the OFF
position, and take the Smart
Key with you. Unexpected
vehicle movement may occur
if these precautions are not
followed.
NEVER reach through the
steering wheel for the Engine
Start/Stop button or any other
control while 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.

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

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.

difficult until the transmission lubri-
cant has warmed up.

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 required loading
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 leftside 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

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 geartoo 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 engine braking
(brake power 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.
