Emergency Gear Selection &
Operation
How to Shift Gears Manually:
With the SXS unoccupied, align the hexagonal hole of the gear
change tool with the hexagonal end of the secondary spindle
which is located on the front crankcase.
To downshift, turn the gear change tool counterclockwise.
To upshift, turn the gear change tool clockwise.
If the transmission does not shift, rock the vehicle back and forth
and try again. If the transmission still will not shift, invert the gear
change tool and try again.
Return the gear change tool to its under seat bottom on the left
side.
Do not attempt to shift gears manually using the gear change tool
while driving.
If the transmission is shifted manually when the electric shift system
is functioning, the system will shutdown automatically and the shift
paddles will not operate. To reactivate the system, turn the ignition
switch to the “OFF” (w) position, then turn it back to the “ON” (q)
position.
