How to use the gears of an automatic transmission: 1. P (Park) is the parking gear, recommended when parking for more than 1 minute; 2. N (Neutral) is the neutral gear, which can be engaged along with the handbrake when parking for 15 seconds to 60 seconds; 3. R (Reverse) is the reverse gear, engaged when reversing the vehicle; 4. D (Drive) is the forward gear, commonly used for daily driving, engaged during normal driving; 5. S (Sport) is the sport mode gear, which delays upshifting to provide more power, useful when overtaking if acceleration feels slow; 6. Pushing the gear lever to the right from D enters manual mode, where pushing forward (toward the + direction) upshifts and pulling backward (toward the - direction) downshifts.
