Starting the engine✽✽NOTICE - Kick down
mechanism (if equipped)
If your vehicle is equipped with a
kick down mechanism in the acceler-
ator pedal, it prevents you from driv-
ing at full throttle unintentionally by
making the driver require increased
effort to depress the accelerator
pedal. However, if you depress the
pedal more than approximately
82%, the vehicle can be at full throt-
tle and the accelerator pedal will be
easier to depress. This is not a mal-
function but a normal condition.
WARNING
Always wear appropriate shoes when operating your
vehicle. Unsuitable shoes
(high heels, ski boots,etc.)
may interfere with your ability
to use the brake, accelerator
and clutch (if equipped) pedal.
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 sud-
denly move if the brake padelis released when the rpm ishigh.
(Continued)
Never reach for the enginestart/ stop button or any other
controls through the steering
wheel whilst the vehicle is in
motion. The presence of yourhand or arm in the area could
cause loss of vehicle control,an accident and serious bodi-
ly injury or death.
Do not place any movable objects around the driver's
seat as they may move whilst
driving, interfere with the driv-er and lead to an accident.

Manual transaxle operation
The manual transaxle has 6 for-ward gears.
This shift pattern is imprinted on
the shift knob. The transaxle is fully
synchronized in all forward gearsso shifting to either a higher or a
lower gear is easily accomplished. Depress the clutch pedal down
fully whilst shifting, then release it
slowly.
If your vehicle is equipped with an
ignition lock switch, the engine will
not start when starting the enginewithout depressing the clutchpedal.
In order to start the vehicle, slowly let go of the fully depressed clutch
pedal. Then, push the accelerator
pedal to start.
The shift lever must return to the neutral position before shifting into
R (Reverse). The button located
immediately below the shift knob
must be pushed upward whilst
moving the shift lever to the R
(Reverse) position.
Make sure the vehicle is complete-
ly stopped before shifting into R(Reverse).
Never operate the engine with thetachometer (rpm) in the red zone.
MANUAL TRANSAXLE (IF EQUIPPED)
OJD052004
The button (1) must be pushed whilst
moving the shift lever.
The shift lever can be moved without
pushing the button (1).
CAUTION
When downshifting from 5
(Fifth) gear to 4 (Fourth) gear,caution should be taken not to inadvertently move the shiftlever sideways in such a man-ner that second gear is engaged. Such a drasticdownshift may cause theengine speed to increase to the point that the tachometerwill enter the red-zone. Suchover-revving of the engine may possibly cause engineand transaxle damage.
Do not downshift more than 2 gears or downshift the gearwhen the engine is running at high speed (5,000 RPM orhigher). Such a downshiftingmay damage the engine, clutch and the transaxle.
When shifting between 5th and 6th gear, you shouldalways push the gear level allthe way to the right. You could otherwise shift unintentionallyinto 3rd or 4th gear and dam-age the transaxle.
