Manual transmission – Acura 2012 TL User Manual
Page 497
Press the clutch pedal, and shift to
reverse.
The manual transmission has a
lockout so you cannot accidentally
shift from any forward gear to
reverse while the vehicle is moving
at a certain speed. If you cannot shift
to reverse when the vehicle is
stopped, do the following:
With the clutch pedal pressed,
move the shift lever to the first/
second gear side of the neutral
gate, then shift to reverse.
If you are still unable to shift to
reverse, apply the parking brake,
and select the ACCESSORY or
VEHICLE OFF (LOCK) mode
(see page
).
With the clutch pedal still pressed
fully, press the engine start/stop
button to start the engine.
If you need to use this procedure to
shift to reverse, your vehicle may be
developing a problem. Have it
checked by your dealer.
