Gear positions, five-speed
Depress the clutch pedal fully during each
gear change. Take your foot off the clutch
pedal between gear changes. Follow the
shifting pattern indicated.
For the best possible fuel economy, use the
highest gear possible as often as possible.
Reverse gear inhibitor, five-speed
Only engage reverse gear when the car is
stationary. To engage reverse gear, the gear
lever must first be put in position N. Reverse
gear cannot therefore be engaged directly
from fifth gear due to the reverse gear inhibi-
tor.
Gear positions, six-speed (petrol)
Depress the clutch pedal fully during each
gear change. Take your foot off the clutch
pedal between gear changes. Follow the
shifting pattern indicated.
For the best possible fuel economy, use the
highest gear possible as often as possible.
It can be difficult to find the positions for fifth
and sixth gear when the car is stationary as
the reverse gear inhibitor (which blocks side-
ways movement towards reverse) is then not
activated.
