Releasing the handbrake does not require pressing the clutch; you can simply release the clutch to the semi-engaged position. After starting the engine, observe its operation and check the indicators on the dashboard. Once the engine is running normally and you have confirmed there are no obstacles around the vehicle, ensuring all conditions for starting are met, press the clutch pedal all the way down with your left foot to fully disengage the clutch. During a normal start, the goal is to achieve a smooth and safe takeoff with the correct driving posture. It's important to select the appropriate gear based on the vehicle's conditions, road surface, slope, and other specific factors. Generally, on flat or firm roads or surfaces, you should use 1st or 2nd gear for starting.
