Reverse

Note: Make sure that your vehicle is at a
complete stop before you shift into reverse
(R). Failure to do so may damage the
transmission.

1.

Press the clutch pedal to the floor to
disengage clutch.

2. Shift into reverse (R) by raising the

collar below the gearshift knob up, then
moving the lever fully to the left, then
forward.

E99067

Note: The gearshift lever can only be
moved to reverse (R) by raising the collar
below the gearshift knob up before shifting
to reverse. This is a lockout feature which
protects the transmission from accidentally
engaging reverse (R) when intending to
select first (1).

If reverse (R) is not fully engaged, press
the clutch pedal down and return the
gearshift to the neutral position. Release
the clutch pedal for a moment, then raise
the collar and shift to reverse (R) again.
