How to Operate an Automatic Transmission?
1 Answers
When starting an automatic transmission vehicle, it is important to ensure that the gear lever is in the P (Park) or N (Neutral) position before starting the engine. During startup, pay attention to coordinating the brake, handbrake, and accelerator properly after shifting to D (Drive) gear. While releasing the handbrake, slowly lift the brake pedal and then gently press the accelerator to allow the vehicle to start moving gradually. Avoid stomping on the accelerator abruptly, as it not only wastes fuel but also damages the vehicle. Also, make sure not to release the brake pedal when shifting gears.
