The parking steps for the BMW X3 are: press the brake, shift to neutral, engage the handbrake, release the foot brake, shift to P gear, and turn off the engine. Taking the 2021 BMW X3 as an example, it is a mid-size 5-door 5-seat SUV with body dimensions of: length 4717mm, width 1891mm, height 1689mm, wheelbase 2864mm, and a fuel tank capacity of 65 liters.

When I first learned to drive, parking was the most nerve-wracking part. When parking a BMW X3, the basic steps are to slowly approach the parking spot, first signal with the turn indicator to alert others, then gently press the brake to come to a smooth stop—avoid sudden braking. Once the car is stationary, remember to shift the gear to the P position, which locks the wheels. The BMW's electronic parking brake will engage automatically, and a small icon will light up on the screen to ensure the car doesn't roll. Before turning off the engine, check the surroundings—safety first. After shutting off the engine, close the windows and lock the doors, confirming with the key or door button. Make it a habit to follow these steps to protect the tires and braking system, extending the vehicle's lifespan. Stay calm while parking to avoid minor accidents—these are the fundamentals every beginner must master.
