How to Prevent Rolling Back During Hill Start

[LaJuliana]

During the starting process, avoid accelerating with the throttle while the clutch is semi-engaged for an extended period—once the vehicle is propelled by the throttle, it won't roll back. Here are the correct steps for hill starting: 1. Shift into neutral, engage the handbrake firmly to ensure the vehicle doesn't roll back. 2. Depress the clutch pedal fully with your left foot and shift into first gear. Hold the handbrake with your right hand. 3. Gradually release the clutch pedal with your left foot until the clutch is semi-engaged. When the vehicle begins to vibrate and shows a tendency to move forward, release the handbrake while slowly pressing the throttle pedal with your right foot. Note: When the clutch pedal is released to the point where the vehicle vibrates, slightly hold it in this position to confirm whether the vehicle has the tendency and power to move forward, rather than continuing to lift the clutch pedal to prevent stalling. Only when the vehicle starts moving forward should you completely release the handbrake with your right hand. 4. Continue pressing the throttle with your right foot to accelerate and climb the hill.
