How to Operate Push-Button Shifting?
2 Answers
Push-button shifting requires operations on the gear positions. Through a series of operations, push-button shifting can be achieved. Here are the specific methods: 1. P Gear Shifting: P gear stands for permanent parking, similar to the neutral gear in manual transmission vehicles. 2. R Gear Shifting: R gear represents the reverse gear. In this knob shifting system, simply rotate from P gear to R gear directly. 3. N Gear Shifting: N gear stands for neutral gear. Rotate from P gear to R gear and then to N gear. The N gear in automatic transmission is only for temporary parking and cannot represent permanent parking, etc.
When using push-button shifting, I find it quite simple: first make sure the car is started, otherwise the buttons won't work. Just press the P button when parked, lightly press R for reverse, D for drive, and N for neutral. After starting the car, there's no need to forcefully push and pull like with old gear levers—just a quick press of the button does the trick, and the gear response is very fast. Driving in the city at red lights, I often shift from D to N to save energy, then switch back to D when the light turns green. The design is thoughtful, with the buttons placed near the center console within easy reach, preventing distraction. The key is to remember the button colors or shapes for identification, like red for P and white for R, to avoid mistakes. Once you get used to it, it's much more convenient than traditional levers, saves space, and makes driving smoother.
