A dedicated message will appear in the instru-

MANUAL TRANSMISSION — IF EQUIPPED
NOTE:
During cold weather, you may experience
increased effort in shifting until the transmis-
sion fluid warms up. This is normal.
Gear Selector
To shift the gears, fully press the clutch pedal
and place the gear selector into the desired
gear position (the diagram for the engagement
of the gears is displayed on the handle of the
selector).
WARNING!
You can be badly injured working on or
around a motor vehicle. Do only that service
work for which you have the knowledge and
the right equipment. If you have any doubt
about your ability to perform a service job,
take your vehicle to a competent mechanic.
WARNING!
You or others could be injured if you leave the
vehicle unattended without having the park
brake fully applied. The park brake should
always be applied when the driver is not in
the vehicle, especially on an incline.
CAUTION!
Never drive with your foot resting on the
clutch pedal, or attempt to hold the vehicle
on a hill with the clutch pedal partially
engaged, as this will cause abnormal wear
on the clutch.
Do not drive with your hand resting on the
gear selector as the force exerted, even if
slight, could lead over time to premature
wear of the gearbox internal components.
