What is the correct sequence for parking and turning off an automatic transmission car?
1 Answers
Automatic transmission car parking and turning off sequence is: After the vehicle comes to a complete stop, shift the gear to P or N position, then turn off the engine. If parking on a slope, first shift to N position, then apply the foot brake and pull the handbrake. After the vehicle is completely stationary, shift to P position, release the foot brake, and finally turn off the engine. Introduction to automatic transmission gears: P stands for Park, R for Reverse, N for Neutral, D for Drive, and S for Sport mode. Automatic transmission cars typically use hydraulic transmission devices to replace the mechanical clutch in manual transmission cars, hence there is no clutch pedal. When the engine speed is low, the torque transmitted by the fluid is limited and insufficient to propel the car forward. When the gear selector is placed in Drive and the brake pedal is released, as the accelerator is pressed and engine speed increases, the transmitted torque grows, propelling the car forward.
