What are the correct steps for starting on a slope in Subject 2?
1 Answers
When parking on a steep slope, follow these steps in order: press the clutch, press the brake, shift to neutral, pull the handbrake, and then release the clutch. Note that the right foot should still be pressing the brake at this point. Move the right foot from the brake to the accelerator, gently press the accelerator to raise the engine speed to around 2000 RPM, and maintain steady pressure on the accelerator. Slowly lift the clutch to find the engagement point. You can determine if the engagement point is reached by listening to the engine sound—the engine speed will slightly decrease when the engagement point is reached. At this point, release the handbrake, and the car will start moving. Gradually release the clutch completely. After the car starts moving, maintain steady pressure on the accelerator and slowly release the clutch fully. At this point, the starting process is complete.
