How to use the M gear?
1 Answers
Methods for using the M gear: 1. When using the M gear, first shift the automatic transmission into M gear, then use the gear lever or paddle shifters to control upshifts and downshifts; 2. The M gear can be used when driving on long uphill or downhill slopes or during aggressive driving. Relying solely on the braking system to slow down when going downhill can cause the braking system to overheat and fail. Using the M gear to keep the transmission in a lower gear allows engine braking to reduce speed; 3. After switching to the M gear, you can manually control the transmission to upshift or downshift. The M gear indicates that the car switches from automatic mode to manual mode, but unlike a pure manual transmission, shifting in an automatic car in M gear does not require releasing the throttle; you can directly increase or decrease speed.
