The correct way to drive an automatic transmission car is: Starting procedure: 1. Press the brake pedal and start the car in N gear; 2. Shift from N gear to D gear; 3. Release the handbrake and then lift your foot off the brake pedal to start moving. Parking procedure: 1. When needing to park, first press the brake pedal, then firmly pull the handbrake; 2. Shift the gear to P position; 3. Gently lift your foot off the brake pedal and then turn off the engine. Automatic transmission differs from manual transmission in that the former connects and transmits power through a soft connection, namely the torque converter; automatic transmissions don't have the clutch plates found in manual transmissions, so special attention is needed during operation. Otherwise, over time, certain wear can cause issues such as overheating of the transmission and insufficient power transfer due to excessive temperature.
