What is the correct sequence for starting a vehicle?
1 Answers
Vehicle starting sequence is: 1. Adjust the seat properly after getting in the car: Incorrect sitting posture may cause abnormal driving sensations; 2. Start the engine: Normally observe the indicator lights on the dashboard. If any warning light remains on for an extended period, it indicates an abnormality in the corresponding component. Immediately turn off the engine, inspect the vehicle, resolve the issue, and then restart the engine; 3. Fully depress the clutch: Press the clutch pedal completely with your left foot; 4. Shift into first gear, release the parking brake lever, and simultaneously observe the surroundings to ensure all conditions for starting are met; 5. Release the clutch slowly, finding the friction point by listening to the engine sound, feeling vibrations, and observing RPM; 6. After locating the clutch engagement point, gently press the accelerator. The vehicle will slightly vibrate, then move your feet in opposite directions - left foot slowly continues releasing the clutch pedal upward while right foot gradually presses the accelerator pedal downward, with smooth and gentle movements.
