Release the parking brake lever before starting: Press the clutch pedal all the way down with your left foot, shift gears with your right hand, gradually press the accelerator pedal with your right foot while slowly releasing the clutch with your left foot for a smooth start. Do not keep your left foot on the clutch frequently: While driving, do not keep your left foot on the clutch frequently to prevent premature wear of the clutch friction plates. Try to drive at medium speed in high gear on flat roads: When going uphill, shift to a lower gear in time. When going downhill, you can engage a lower gear to utilize the auxiliary power of the diesel engine for safer driving.
