CAUTION
- When downshifting from 5
(Fifth) gear to 4 (Fourth) gear,
caution should be taken not to
inadvertently move the shift lev‐
er sideways in such a manner
that second gear is engaged.
Such a drastic downshift may
cause the engine speed to in‐
crease to the point that the
tachometer will enter the red-
zone. Such over-revving of the
engine may possibly cause en‐
gine and transaxle damage.
- Do not downshift more than 2
gears or downshift the gear
when the engine is running at
high speed (5,000 RPM or high‐
er). Such a downshifting may
damage the engine, clutch and
the transaxle.
- When shifting between 5th and
6th gear, you should always
push the gear level all the way
to the right. You could otherwise
shift unintentionally into 3rd or
4th gear and damage the trans‐
axle.
