What is the correct sequence for parking and shifting gears?
1 Answers
Parking and shifting gears should follow this sequence: 1. After the car enters the parking space, first press the brake and shift to N (Neutral) gear; 2. Engage the handbrake, then release the foot brake and turn off the engine; 3. Shift to P (Park) gear and remove the key. An automatic transmission typically refers to a car's automatic gear-shifting mechanism, where the transmission control system automatically selects the appropriate gear based on the engine's speed and load during driving, replacing the driver's subjective judgment of timing and gear-shifting operations. Common automatic transmission cars have six gear positions, arranged from top to bottom as: P, R, N, D, S, L. The frequently used automatic gears are P (Park), R (Reverse), N (Neutral), and D (Drive).
