Below is relevant knowledge about automatic transmissions: Introduction to automatic transmission gears: P (Parking gear). When parking the vehicle, the gear lever must be shifted to P position. R (Reverse gear). N (Neutral gear). N position is equivalent to neutral gear and can be used when starting or towing. D (Drive gear). During normal driving, place the gear lever in D position, and the vehicle will automatically shift between gears 1-3 or 4-5. D gear is the most commonly used gear. Tips for parking an automatic transmission vehicle on a slope: On flat roads, you can directly shift into P gear when parking an automatic transmission vehicle; however, when driving on a slope, you should first shift into N gear, press the brake, and then engage the handbrake. After releasing the brake to relieve the force, press the brake again and shift to P gear. Otherwise, shifting directly into P gear will make it very difficult to shift when starting.
