Main Menu ▲ ▼ Shifting the 4 or 5 Speed The fully synchronized manual transmission is very easy to shift up or down. When you stow down for traffic, steep hills, or corners, shift to a lower gear before the engine starts to labor. When descending steep grades, select a lower gear to help maintain a safe speed and to prevent the brakes from over heating. When shifting, depress the clutch pedal fully, shift gears and then release the clutch gradually. Do not speedshift; allow time for the gears to synchronize. To prevent grinding the gears when shifting into reverse, hold the clutch pedal depressed briefly before shifting, or shift the lever into one of the forward gears before selecting reverse. On 5 speed transmissions, a safety lockout prevents accidental shifting straight from 5th to Reverse. Avoid rapid acceleration or sudden deceleration when either or both driving wheels are on a slippery surface. Decreased traction could cause loss of directional control. Clutch Pedal Adjustment Clutch pedal free travel must be adjusted periodically to compensate for lining wear. There should be approximately 25 mm (1 in) of pedal free travel. If not, or if the clutch seems to slip or you have difficulty shifting, have your dealer check the clutch adjustment. CAUTION: Do not drive with your foot on the clutch pedal as this will cause premature wear of clutch components. Do not shift into reverse while the car is moving. Driving with the clutch pedal free travel improperly adjusted can cause premature wear of the clutch components. (cont'd)
