What is the operation method for the function buttons of an automatic transmission car?
2 Answers
When starting, first press the start button twice to connect the entire vehicle. Automatic transmission cars do not have a clutch, and the brake needs to be continuously pressed. While the car is moving, simply push the gear lever into the desired gear position. Generally, different gear positions are suitable for different driving environments.
After driving for over a decade, I've gained insights into automatic transmission operations. Before starting the car, press the brake pedal, ignite the engine, then shift to D mode to begin driving. When coming to a complete stop, first press the brake and shift to N mode, engage the handbrake, then shift to P mode to avoid damaging the transmission. For reversing, shift to R mode and check the rearview mirrors carefully. Use the steering wheel paddles or center console buttons for manual mode shifting, such as switching to S mode for uphill driving or fuel efficiency. Activate cruise control by pressing the SET button and adjust speed with the +/- dial. Familiarize yourself with other controls like the temperature knob for air conditioning and the windshield wiper stalk to avoid distractions while driving. New drivers often make mistakes in gear shifting that can harm the car; it's advisable to practice neutral operations more and seek immediate factory inspection for any issues, keeping buttons clean to prevent sticking.
