MANUAL TRANSAXLE OPERATION (IF EQUIPPED)

Using the clutch

Vehicles equipped with a manual transaxle have a starter interrupt

interlock that prevents cranking of the engine unless the clutch pedal is

depressed.

When starting a vehicle with a manual transaxle, you must:

1. Put the gearshift lever in the

neutral position.

2. Hold down the brake pedal.

3. Depress the clutch pedal.

4. Without depressing the

accelerator pedal, turn the ignition

to position 4 (START), release the

ignition as soon as the engine starts.

5. Let the engine idle for a few

seconds.

6. Release the brake pedal, then

slowly release the clutch pedal while

pressing down slowly on the

accelerator pedal.

Do not drive with your foot resting on the clutch pedal and do

not use the clutch pedal to hold your vehicle at a standstill while

waiting on a hill. These actions will seriously reduce clutch life.
