IMPREZA(NA) A1850BE-A (ENGLISH)
Starting and operating
7-12
in neutral, release the clutch pedal momentarily, and
then try again.
WARNING
Do not drive the vehicle with the clutch disen-
gaged (i.e., when the clutch pedal is
depressed) or with the shift lever in the neu-
tral position. Engine braking has no effect in
either of these conditions and the risk of an
accident is consequently increased.
CAUTION
Shift into reverse ONLY when the vehicle has
completely stopped. It may cause damage to
the transmission to try shifting into reverse
when the vehicle is moving.
J Shifting speeds
B Recommended shifting speeds
The best compromise between fuel economy and
vehicle performance during normal driving is en-
sured by shifting up at the speeds listed in the fol-
lowing table.
Shift up mph (km/h)
1st to 2nd 15 (24)
2nd to 3rd 25 (40)
3rd to 4th 40 (65)
4th to 5th 45 (73)
B Maximum allowable speeds
The following table shows the maximum speeds that
are possible with each different gear.
Never exceed the speed limit below for each gear
position except for brief acceleration in an emergen-
cy. The tachometers needle (if so equipped) will en-
ter the red area if these speeds are exceeded. Fail-
ure to observe this precaution can lead to excessive
engine wear and poor fuel economy.
