1 Answers
The correct method for shifting gears in a manual transmission car is: 1. Before shifting, observe the engine speed. Shift when the speed is between 2000 and 2500 RPM to avoid sluggish acceleration, jerking, or a dull throttle response after shifting; 2. Fully depress the clutch pedal while releasing the throttle, then move the gear lever to the corresponding gear; 3. After completing the shift, lift the clutch to the semi-engaged state. Once the car's power output and transmission are smoothly connected, gently press the throttle to apply power, then slowly release the clutch. The steps for starting a manual transmission car are: 1. Sit properly in the driver's seat; 2. Start the car; 3. Depress the clutch; 4. Engage first gear; 5. Slowly release the clutch; 6. Gently press the throttle; 7. Fully release the clutch to complete the car's start.
