How to Learn to Drive a Motor Vehicle?

Inspect the vehicle before getting in. Walk around the vehicle once before entering to check the exterior, tires, and undercarriage for any oil or water leaks. You must open the hood once a week to inspect engine oil, coolant, and brake fluid. Ignition steps. Pull the handbrake tight (to prevent slipping), press the clutch pedal all the way down, shift into neutral, do not press the accelerator (throttle pedal), turn the key to the second position and hold for 6 seconds to allow the car's electronic system to power up and self-check (you can fasten your seatbelt at this time), then continue turning the key to the third position to ignite. Gently press the accelerator when igniting. Warm up the car before driving. EFI vehicles hardly need warming up. Warming up here refers to starting the lubrication system. If the car has been parked for more than 3 hours, after igniting the engine, let it idle for more than 10 seconds until the tachometer drops to around 1000 rpm, then start driving. In extremely cold weather in the north, the idle warm-up time should be appropriately extended. Start in first gear. Vehicle transmission design emphasizes speed. Starting in second gear not only increases the engine load but also causes premature clutch wear. Therefore, regardless of the engine displacement, the car should always start in first gear.
