The correct procedure for starting a car: 1. Open the door and get in the car. 2. Adjust the seat and fasten the seat belt. 3. Check the instrument panel and rearview mirrors, shake the gear lever to ensure it's in neutral position. 4. Face the front-right camera, state your name. 5. Follow the sequence: 'One press (press the clutch), two gears (engage first gear), three lights (turn on the indicator), four horns (sound the horn), five brakes (release the handbrake), six mirrors (check the rearview mirror)', then gently turn the steering wheel to start moving. Note: If the car is parked on the right side of the road, turn on the left indicator and check the left rearview mirror when starting, gently turning the steering wheel to enter the normal driving lane. If the car is parked on the left side of the road, turn on the right indicator and check the right rearview mirror, gently turning the steering wheel to cross the center line and enter the normal driving lane. 6. Press the clutch, shift to second gear, straighten the steering wheel, and turn off the indicator.

How to steer when the left side is narrow?

When reversing with the left side narrow, steer to the left. If the left side is narrow, delay turning the steering wheel to the left. If you don't correct the direction in time, there is a risk of the wheels crossing the line during continued reversing. Before correcting the direction, remember one principle: the direction you steer is where the rear of the car will swing.

How to Turn the Steering Wheel to the Left?

Gently hold the steering wheel with both hands, with your left hand at the 9:00 position and your right hand at the 3:00 position; note that it should be a light grip, not a tight grasp. When you want to turn the car to the left, you need to turn the steering wheel to the left; push the steering wheel upward with your right hand until it reaches approximately the 11:00 position.

How to Steer for Left-side Parking?

Left reverse parking allows you to fully turn the steering wheel 10cm earlier than right reverse parking. When the lower edge of the left rearview mirror is about to align with the stop line, turn the steering wheel fully to the left. Observe the distance between the rear wheel and the parking corner in the left rearview mirror, trying to maintain this distance at about 30cm. Once confirming the left rear wheel can smoothly enter the parking space, then check the right rearview mirror. When the car body is about to parallel with the parking line, straighten the steering wheel. Turn back to look at the left rearview mirror. When it covers the solid stop line at the parking entrance, you can press the brake and clutch to stop. At this point, the vehicle has successfully entered the parking space.

How to Adjust Steering and Position for Left Reverse Parking?

Turn the steering wheel 1/4 turn to the left, and straighten it when the car body is aligned. Turn the steering wheel 1/4 turn to the right, and straighten it when the car body is aligned. When the car body is parallel to the garage but the entire car is slightly to the left, you can first turn the steering wheel 1/4 turn to the right, observing the front wheels to avoid crossing the line. When the distance on the right side is approximately correct, turn the steering wheel 1/4 turn to the left. Once the car body is parallel to the garage again, straighten the steering wheel.

How to Correct the Direction When Turning Left Too Early in Reverse Parking?

Starting from the alignment line, keep the right side of the car approximately 30 centimeters away from the edge of the parking space, and drive straight to the starting line. When you see the inner corner of the parking space, turn the steering wheel one full turn to the left. When the car body is parallel to the left and right boundary lines, straighten the steering wheel. Slowly drive out of the parallel parking area.
