too high of a vehicle speed, these conditions may cause
the engine to overspeed if too low of a gear is selected
and the clutch pedal is released. Damage to the clutch

while downshifting or downshifting at too high of a
vehicle speed even if the clutch pedal is held pressed
(i.e., not released).

• Always remove the key fob.
• Block the wheels with a wedge or a stone if the vehicle
is parked on a steep slope.
NOTE: NEVER leave the car with the gearbox in neutral
