* [DR11235(ALL)03/94] Power Braking
* [DR11275(ALL)03/94] Increasing the engine speed above idle without vehicle
movement (such as holding the brake) in a forward or reverse
gear causes transmission stall.
* [DR11285(ALL)09/95] NOTE: Continued operation in the stall condition can result
in transmission overheat, malfunction or fluid
expulsion.
[DR11300(ALL)08/94]
Manual Transmission Operation
% * [DR11400(ALL)03/95] Using the Clutch
* [DR11500(ALL)01/95] Make sure the gearshift lever is in the N (Neutral) position and
your right foot is holding down the brake pedal. Then press the
clutch pedal to the floor with your left foot. Manual
transmission vehicles have a starter interlock switch. The starter
will not crank until the clutch pedal is fully depressed. Start the
engine and allow it to idle for a few seconds. Move the
gearshift into 1 (First) or R (Reverse).
* [DR11600(ALL)03/91] To move the vehicle, release the clutch slowly and at the same
time press down slowly on the accelerator so that the vehicle
accelerates.
* [DR11700(ALL)03/95] Do not drive with your foot resting on the clutch pedal and do
not use the clutch to hold your vehicle at a standstill while
waiting on a hill. These actions will seriously reduce clutch life.
* [DR11750(ALL)03/95] Driving with your foot resting on the clutch may cause the
vehicle to jerk sharply when pressing or removing your other
foot from the accelerator.
