Which gear should be used for parking and starting on a slope with an automatic transmission?
1 Answers
When parking on a slope with an automatic transmission, first engage the handbrake to secure the vehicle, then shift the gear to N before shifting to P. Below is relevant information: 1. Automatic Transmission: As the name suggests, an automatic transmission does not require the driver to manually shift gears. The vehicle will automatically select the appropriate gear based on the driving speed and traffic conditions. Generally, automatic transmission vehicles have six gear positions, from top to bottom: P, R, N, D, S, L. 2. Precautions: When starting, keep the brake pedal (foot brake) pressed while releasing the handbrake to prevent the car from starting abruptly due to an increase in engine RPM during this process.
