Can You Idle in Place with the Gear in P?
1 Answers
Automatic transmission vehicles can idle in place with the gear in P, such as when stopping at a red light. Here is an introduction to the gear positions of automatic transmission vehicles and precautions for their use: 1. P (Park): The parking gear. When the vehicle is completely stationary, press the unlock button at the front of the gear lever to shift into P. 2. R (Reverse): The reverse gear. When the vehicle is completely stationary, press the brake pedal and the unlock button at the front of the gear lever to shift into R. After releasing the brake pedal, gently press the accelerator to move the vehicle backward. 3. N (Neutral): The neutral gear. You can directly shift from R or D into N. When shifting out of N, you need to press the brake pedal. 4. D (Drive): The drive gear. You can directly shift from N into D. This gear is generally used when the vehicle is moving forward, and the system will automatically shift gears based on engine load and speed.
