What is the sequence for parking a manual transmission car?
1 Answers
Manual transmission parking sequence is to first press the brake pedal, then depress the clutch when the speed drops to near stop, and finally press the brake firmly to bring the vehicle to a complete halt. Precautions for manual transmission parking: 1. On level ground, you may choose neutral gear and engage the handbrake; 2. On slopes, always engage first gear and apply the handbrake to prevent rolling; 3. When stopping at red lights, after reducing speed, depress the clutch with your left foot to disconnect the engine from the drivetrain (preventing stalling), then use the brake to control speed and position the vehicle appropriately. Manual transmission cars use a manually operated gearshift mechanism to regulate speed - the driver must move the gear lever to change gear engagement positions within the transmission, altering gear ratios to achieve speed changes. The gear lever can only be moved when the clutch is depressed.
