What gear should be engaged when reversing?
1 Answers
When reversing, you should engage the R gear. When using the R gear, remember to pay special attention to the control of the accelerator pedal. Operation steps for manual transmission vehicles: Press the clutch with your left foot and the brake with your right foot. When the car stops reversing and comes to a standstill, use your right hand to move the gear lever from the reverse position to the neutral position. Quickly push the gear lever into first gear. Gently lift the clutch with your left foot and slowly press the accelerator with your right foot to allow the car to move forward smoothly. Operation steps for automatic transmission vehicles: After the car returns to its original position, release the accelerator with your right foot and then press the brake pedal. Once the car stops, quickly pull the gear lever from the "R" position (reverse) to the "D" position (drive) with your right hand. Gently lift the brake pedal with your right foot, and the vehicle will slowly move forward.
