Release the clutch pedal for a moment, depress the clutch again and then move the transmission selector lever to reverse. Parking Your Vehicle WARNING Do not park your vehicle with the transmission selector lever in the neutral position. Your vehicle may move unexpectedly and injure someone. Move the transmission selector lever to first gear and set the parking brake fully. To park your vehicle: 1. Press the brake pedal and move the transmission selector lever to the neutral position. 2. Fully apply the parking brake, hold the clutch pedal down, then move the transmission selector lever to first gear. 3. Switch the ignition off. E144954 Manual transmission vehicles have a starter interlock that prevents cranking the engine unless the clutch pedal is fully depressed. Starting Your Vehicle WARNING Make sure the floor mat is positioned correctly so that it does not interfere with the full extension of the clutch pedal. 1. Make sure the parking brake is fully set and move the transmission selector lever to the neutral position. 2. Fully depress the clutch pedal then start the engine. 3. Press the brake pedal and move the transmission selector lever to first or reverse gear. 4. Release the parking brake and slowly release the clutch pedal while slowly pressing on the accelerator. During each shift, make sure you fully depress the clutch pedal. MANUAL TRANSMISSION 1.6L ECOBOOST™ Using the Clutch Note: Failure to fully depress the clutch pedal to the floor may cause increased shift efforts, prematurely wear transmission components or damage the transmission. Note: Do not drive with your foot resting on the clutch pedal or use the clutch pedal to hold your vehicle at a standstill while waiting on a hill. These actions will reduce the life of the clutch and could nullify a clutch warranty claim. Recommended Shift Speeds Note: Do not move the transmission selector lever to first gear when your vehicle is moving faster than 15 mph (24 km/h). This will damage the clutch. 127 Fiesta (CCT) Vehicles Built From: 01-04-2013, Vehicles Built Up To: 31-12-2013
