Gear selector lever

Do not engage a gear without depressing the clutch pedal.

To shift between 5th and 6th gear, you must push the lever fully to the right. Otherwise, you may engage 3rd or 4th gear unintentionally and damage the transmission.

Shifting down at too high a speed (to slow the vehicle) may over-rev the engine and, as a result, damage it.

Do not slip the clutch to hold the vehicle stationary on a hill. Otherwise, you may damage the clutch.

On long, steep downhill sections, you must shift down in time to gear 1, 2 or 3, especially when the vehicle is loaded or towing a trailer. This way you use the engine braking effect. In doing so, you relieve the braking system and prevent overheating and rapid brake wear.
