To shift into R (Reverse):
*
[DR12501(ALL)03/91] 1. Push the clutch pedal in all the way to the floor and hold it.
If you do not hold the clutch pedal in all the way, you may
hear a grinding noise when you shift.
*
[DR12551(ALL)03/93] 2. Bring your vehicle to a complete stop. Failure to do so may
cause synchronizer teeth damage, reducing the useful life of
your transmission.
*
[DR12600(ALL)08/94] 3. Put the gearshift in Neutral and wait at least 3 seconds
before shifting into R (Reverse) to prevent a grinding noise.
Do not release the clutch.
*
[DR12700(ALL)08/94] 4. Push the gearshift all the way to the right and pull it back
into Reverse.
*
[DR12800(ALL)01/95]
With the 5-speed transmission you can engage R (Reverse) only
by moving the gearshift from the left of 3 (Third) and 4 (Fourth)
gears before you shift into R (Reverse). This is a special lockout
feature that protects you from accidentally shifting into R when
you downshift from 5 (Fifth) gear.
