Pure automatic transmissions generally have P, R, N, D, D3/D2/D1. The following is a related introduction: 1. Introduction to automatic transmission cars: Generally, cars that use automatic transmissions (AT) to adjust speed. When driving, the control system of the automatic transmission automatically selects the appropriate gear based on the engine speed and load, replacing the driver's subjective judgment of timing and gear shifting operations. 2. Operating characteristics of automatic transmission cars: When driving a modern automatic transmission car, the driver only needs to control the accelerator pedal. The computer analyzes signals such as engine throttle opening and vehicle speed collected by sensors, automatically controlling the transmission or shifting the transmission into different gears. Generally, automatic transmissions result in some loss of engine power.

How to turn off the constantly lit differential lock light on the Prado?

When road conditions improve (the road becomes better), release the accelerator pedal while driving at low speed or maintaining a steady speed. Press the differential lock switch and steer appropriately. The indicator light will turn off, indicating that the differential has been disengaged. When the vehicle is at low speed or stationary, press the differential lock switch, release the accelerator pedal, and steer appropriately. The indicator light will turn on, indicating that the differential has been properly engaged. The instrument panel will simultaneously emit a beeping sound to alert the driver that the inter-wheel differential lock is in the activated state.

Where are the clutch and brake located in a C1 license vehicle?

Manual transmission vehicles have three pedals, arranged from left to right as follows: clutch pedal, brake pedal, and accelerator pedal. In a manual transmission car, the driver uses the left foot to operate the clutch and the right foot to control the brake and accelerator. When starting the vehicle, first start the engine. Press the clutch pedal fully with the left foot, shift into first gear, release the handbrake, and slowly release the clutch to the half-clutch position. If the RPM on the dashboard fluctuates slightly or the vehicle shows signs of moving, gently press the accelerator with the right foot while continuing to steadily release the clutch with the left foot. Once the vehicle starts moving, quickly lift the clutch. While driving, the left foot should not rest on the brake pedal. In manual transmission vehicles, the left foot should only press the clutch pedal when shifting gears. During normal driving, the left foot should not rest on any pedal. Both the brake and accelerator are controlled by the right foot. There are two key reasons why the left foot should not rest on the pedal: 1. During long drives, both feet can become fatigued, leading to unintentional pressing. If the left foot is on the brake pedal, accidentally pressing it can easily cause an accident. 2. Most people are right-handed, so the right foot reacts faster. In an emergency, the right foot can quickly respond by lifting the accelerator and pressing the brake. If the left foot is on the brake pedal, the right foot would be suspended, making it easy to press both pedals simultaneously, which is dangerous. Additional information about car brakes and accelerators: The brake is a mechanical device that slows down the vehicle, also known as a decelerator. The brake pedal is located under the steering wheel. Pressing it activates the brake linkage, which presses the brake pads against the brake disc, slowing or stopping the vehicle. The accelerator controls the fuel supply in an internal combustion engine. In cars, the accelerator is typically controlled by a pedal, also called the throttle, which regulates the engine's fuel supply. When pressing the brake or accelerator, the body needs support to maintain balance. The right foot operates the pedals while the left foot stabilizes the body on the floor. If both feet are on the pedals, they are semi-suspended, lacking a stable point of support, which can lead to unstable braking or acceleration. Important tips for novice drivers: 1. Use turn signals early when changing lanes or turning: Lights and horns are the language of driving. Communicate your intentions early, especially as a beginner. Always signal in advance and avoid changing lanes or turning immediately after activating the signal. 2. Follow proper overtaking procedures: When overtaking, signal left early and use high beams or honk. On roads with no centerline or only one lane, the front vehicle should slow down and move right to allow overtaking. The overtaking vehicle should pass on the left and return to the original lane only after maintaining a safe distance. 3. Check surroundings before reversing: Before reversing, inspect the area around the vehicle. Do not rely solely on mirrors, parking sensors, or cameras. If someone is guiding you, they should stand beside the vehicle, not behind it, to avoid being hit. 4. Slow down and observe at intersections: Intersections are complex with vehicles, pedestrians, and cyclists from all directions. Always look around and slow down, regardless of traffic lights, to ensure no one is crossing before proceeding. 5. Check for tailgaters before braking hard: During emergency braking, check for vehicles behind you. Maintain a safe distance to avoid rear-end collisions. 6. Keep a safe distance from the vehicle ahead: Road conditions can change suddenly. Control your speed and maintain a safe distance to react to sudden stops or lane changes by other vehicles. 7. Slow down and check surroundings when turning: Reduce speed when turning and use mirrors to check for pedestrians or cyclists. Yield to them to avoid collisions. 8. Drive in the middle lane when possible: On roads without a central divider, the middle lane provides time to react to oncoming traffic. On divided roads, it allows time to respond to sudden appearances from the divider. At night, it prevents being blinded by opposing headlights. 9. Slow down and honk in poor visibility: In low-visibility conditions or weather, honk and reduce speed to ensure safe passage. 10. Slow down near parked large vehicles: Large vehicles block visibility, hiding pedestrians or vehicles that may suddenly emerge. Slow down and proceed only when safe.
