In cars with automatic gear, how should I start driving? moving with D? or 2 then D?

Question

Please give me detailed info where/when to use each gear eg D, 2, L.

Also please let me know if there is any user guide in the net for automatic cars.

Answer 1

D is what you want for drive. The other lower gears are for getting down a steep hill or mountain or driving on ice and such.

Answer 2

D basically means you are in fully automatic mode. You would most commonly use the numbered gears to enlist the braking effect of the engine when going down a steep hill. You would not use a lower gear such as this on ice; you want the highest gear possible to reduce wheel-spin. If you put the gear into "2" to start it will still start with 1 but not go higher than 2. This is different from special ice or hill-start buttons that ensue first gear is not employed.

For most people driving an automatic is easy if you can drive a normal car. However, you need to remeber to keep your left foot away from the pedals. Left-foot braking is considered an advanced technique in most circles.

Answer 3

d = drive....use that, dont go with manually shifting the AUTOMATIC thru the gears....2 is a lower gear that u should use for driving in the snow or towing

Answer 4

Just put it in D. The lower gears are for towing, etc. and not for general driving.

Answer 5

Walk up to the vehicle and open the door before entering.

Answer 6

Yes, "D". "2" or "1" are only used if you want the car not to shift to anything higher than that (when going downhill, say.)

Answer 7

d always, 2 and low when maybe towing or going down hill

Answer 8

start in D. not OD.
the thing on the floor on the right is to go faster and the one onthe left is to slow down or stop.

Answer 9

start it in D, only use L1 orL2 for pulling or steep climbs.
