How to Prevent Stalling When Starting on a Slope with an Automatic Transmission?
1 Answers
To prevent stalling when starting on a slope with an automatic transmission, follow these steps: 1. Press the brake pedal and engage the handbrake simultaneously; 2. Shift the gear to L (Low) or S (Sport) mode, then gradually apply the throttle; 3. When the car's forward momentum is restrained by the handbrake, slowly release the handbrake to allow the vehicle to climb the slope smoothly. An automatic transmission refers to a system where the driver does not need to manually shift gears, as the vehicle automatically selects the appropriate gear based on driving speed and traffic conditions. The gear positions in an automatic transmission vehicle are: 1. P (Park) for parking; 2. R (Reverse) for backing up; 3. N (Neutral) for no gear engagement; 4. D (Drive) for forward movement; 5. S (Sport) for sport mode.
