The external controls of the manual transmission are the gear selector lever assembly and two shift cables. Using the gear selector lever, the driver can engage 6 forward gears and a reverse gear.
The selector lever assembly is located centrally on the transmission tunnel, between the front driver and passenger seats, and is secured to the transmission tunnel with four bolts. The gear selector lever assembly is a maintenance-free mechanical unit.
Commands from the gear selector lever are transmitted to the lever on the gearbox via shift cables. The shift cables are secured to the gear selector lever using pins with a spherical head.
The gear selector lever has a speed-dependent electromagnetic shift lock. This prevents the driver from accidentally engaging reverse gear.
