Manual Transmission — If Equipped
WARNING!
You or others could be injured if you leave the vehicle unattended without having
the parking brake fully applied. The parking 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.
NOTE: During cold weather, you may experience increased effort in shifting until the transmission fluid warms up. This is normal.
