Engine warm-up - initial driving procedure

Experience shows that engines in vehicles driven short distances are subject to abnormally rapid wear

because the engine never reaches normal operating temperature.

It is therefore beneficial to reach normal operating temperature as soon as possible.

This is achieved by driving with a light load as soon as possible.

pg. 33 Gear shift positions

4-speed manual transmission

Depress the clutch fully when changing gears.

The following are recommended gear change speeds (level road).

Shift from first to second at 15 mph

Shift from second to third at 25 mph

Shift from third to fourth at 40 mph

No downshifts should be done when speed occasionally drops below the mentioned shift points.
