How to Shift Gears Up and Down in a Manual Transmission?
1 Answers
Before shifting gears, you must fully depress the clutch pedal. The operation of the gear lever should be swift, gentle, and precise. Before upshifting, you must first accelerate. When the vehicle speed reaches the appropriate range for the next higher gear, promptly shift into the higher gear. When downshifting, you can only shift into a lower gear when the vehicle speed drops to a certain value.
