Pull the lever to disengage the clutch then move the shift lever .

:congrats: on the new ride.

Shifting into reverse SM5.

1. With engine running shift into first gear.
2. Hold in the clutch lever.
3. Press and hold the reverse button.
4. Step down on the shift lever one stroke.
5. Release the reverse button and check that the letter "R" flashes on the multifunction gage and the backup lights turn on.

Shifting out of Reverse

Hold in the clutch and lift the shift lever once to shift into first. You do not need to use the reverse button--it resets automatically.
