What is the correct method to start a Hyundai automatic transmission car?

Turn the ignition key to the second position, the power-on position, allowing the car's computer system to begin self-checking for at least 6 seconds or more. Press the foot brake, shift the gear from P to N; release the foot brake, turn the ignition key to the start position to ignite the engine. Press the foot brake, shift the gear from N to D, release the handbrake (for electronic handbrake, simply press the button briefly). Slowly release the foot brake to start; according to road conditions, steadily press the accelerator to increase speed and drive safely.

Before every drive, I take a moment to ensure safety by fastening the seatbelt, adjusting the rearview and side mirrors for clear visibility, and starting the engine to let it warm up for a few seconds, which benefits engine health. Keeping the right foot on the brake pedal ensures the car remains stationary, then shifting the gear lever from P to D position. Gradually releasing the brake allows the car to move forward slowly, avoiding sudden acceleration or collisions, followed by gently pressing the accelerator for smooth speed increase. Developing this habit in daily driving helps prevent accidents, especially being extra cautious of pedestrians and vehicles in crowded areas—safety always comes first.

From an economical driving perspective, I've discovered some fuel-saving techniques. When starting an automatic transmission vehicle, first press the brake and shift into D gear, then gradually release the brake to allow the car to naturally coast a short distance before gently pressing the accelerator. This gentle start can reduce fuel consumption and emissions. Compared to stomping on the accelerator, the engine load is lower and more environmentally friendly. Combined with maintaining reasonable speeds for smooth acceleration, the vehicle will also be more durable in the long run. Remember, these small techniques work best when applied in urban areas or during frequent start-stop situations.
