CAUTION
When downshifting to a lower gear,
make sure not to operate with the
speed faster than the maximum
allowable speeds for the next lower
gear, or severe engine damage can
result.
Keep the engine speed so it does not get
into the red zone of tachometer.

w WARNINGCAUTION
To help avoid clutch damage, do not
use the clutch pedal as a footrest
while driving or use the clutch to
keep the vehicle stationary on a
slope. Depress the clutch fully when
shifting.
When shifting or starting off, do not
race the engine. Racing the engine
can shorten engine life and affect
smooth operation.

w WARNING
Always depress the brake pedal before
shifting from “P” (Park) (or “N”
(Neutral) if the vehicle is stationary) to
a forward or reverse gear, to help
prevent the vehicle from moving
unexpectedly when you shift.
Reduce your speed and downshift
to a lower gear before going down
a long or steep hill. A lower gear
will allow the engine to provide
braking. Avoid riding the brakes or
they may overheat, resulting in
brake failure.
When driving on slippery roads, be
sure to slow down before changing
down. Excessive and or sudden
changes in engine speed may cause
loss of traction, which could cause
you to lose control.
Make sure that the vehicle is com-
pletely stationary before you shift
into reverse.
NOTE:
You may not accelerate to the maximum
allowable speed because of the driving sit-
uation and/or the vehicle condition.
