Default how to use manuel-matic

i have a base model 2002 maunal-matic car and i was just wanted to know if any one really knows how to shift maunaly on it.
it goes up for first, down for second, to the right top for third but is there a fourth or do u just put it back in to drive

i dont know what kind of sport shift your talking about. in an base auto rsx when you put it in SS you press it up to shift up and down to shift down. its not like a true manual.

yeah.. in a base auto rsx, it's a sport shift... up for upshift and down for downshift..

but to answer ur one question.... its true that it does consume a lil more gas..

WTF? A manumatic Honda with an H-pattern shifter?

Or maybe you're confused by the shape of it, since it's not exactly linear.

Okay, so it's like, you've got your normal automatic mode, like so:

P
R
N
M D
D3

And then a little area off to the side for the "sports shift". Since you normally have it in "D", when you're driving manumatic you shift it to the left. On your dash, you have a wonderful little area that shows you what numerical gear you're in. Shift up to go to a higher gear, and shift down to go to a lower gear. I have trouble with this because I'm so used to driving stick that I instinctually shift down to get into 2nd/4th.

Don't u mean sequencial shift? Well the + is upshift and the - is downshift.
