CAUTION!

• Never drive with your foot resting on the clutch

pedal, or try to hold the vehicle on a hill with the
clutch pedal partially engaged, as this will cause
abnormal wear on the clutch. Refer to “Electronic
Brake Control System/Hill Start Assist” in “Start-
ing and Operating” for further information.

• Failure to press the clutch pedal fully to the floor

may cause increased shift efforts, and may result
in damage to the clutch and transmission.

• Do not rest your hand on the shift lever while

driving, as this may result in transmission syn-
chronizer damage.

• Do not attempt to shift the transmission if the rear

wheels are spinning due to loss of traction. Dam-
age to the transmission may occur.

NOTE:

During cold weather, you may experience in-

creased effort in shifting until the transmission fluid

warms up. This is normal.
