Detailed Manual Driving Techniques

Hello everyone, in the last program we taught you how to drive an automatic transmission car and this time we will teach you how to drive a manual transmission car (or also known as a cone). And the object of today's practice is the 2016 Toyota Innova – one of the hottest family cars on the market today.

Detailed Manual Driving Techniques

Compared with automatic transmission, the manual transmission car is not much different. In an automatic car, you will not need to use your left foot, but with a manual transmission car, you must use both left and right feet and both hands to be able to alternately operate the steering functions in the most smooth way. car. Now we will see what is inside the manual transmission car and what do we need to do to be able to drive this car?

The first problem to drive any car is that we must wear seat belts. Then we adjust the sitting position, steering wheel position, mirror position so that we can observe in front, behind, covering everything to avoid unnecessary collisions.

Compared to automatic transmission cars, manual transmission cars also have a steering wheel, brake system, throttle, gear lever and handbrake. However, the manual transmission car has the special feature of adding a clutch pedal and the gearshift system is a bit different from the automatic transmission car and can be more complicated. When we control, we have to be able to control and combine the clutch and gear appropriately to be able to move the car. It is more difficult than automatic transmission cars, but it will also be very easy if you practice hard for a few days to be able to drive. Shall we see the difference between a manual transmission car and an automatic transmission car?

First of all, a manual transmission car is similar to an automatic transmission car that has a brake and accelerator pedal. However, an automatic transmission car will not have a point that is a clutch.

The clutch foot is on the top left side and the left foot will take full charge when using the clutch. In the middle is the brake system, the innermost is the throttle system and the right foot will control the brake and throttle during driving. When we step on the clutch, press the clutch, we only use the left foot and the right foot only applies the brake and accelerator. However, how to combine, we will try to see what the gearbox has, so we can know how to use the clutch, brake and accelerator pedals so that it is reasonable with the best possible way of up and down.

To the right of the sitting position is the gear lever of the manual transmission car, the automatic transmission car, we can push up - push down to go up and down the gear and reverse. However, manual transmission cars will be more complicated, you can notice, on the gear lever bar, there are buttons from 1 to 5 and the symbol R, clearly distributed with the diagram available on the lever. The top includes the numbers 1 -3 - 5, and the bottom includes 2 -4 - R respectively (backwards - but note that there are some R cars that will be on the bottom left, guys). If we want the car to go away, now the car is in Mode (ie between 3 and 4). We want to go fast and move, then we have to go from 1 2 3 4 5 respectively. Number one is the car that will run the strongest but go slow, number 2 will be stronger than 3 4 5 in turn, want to return to them. We also return slowly.

I will guide specifically how to control the gear lever, currently we are in Mode (the gear lever is in the middle):

• – If we move to 1st gear, we move the gear lever left and up
• – Similar to number 2, because it is opposite number 1, we move the gear lever straight down 2 times
• – Number 3, we will move the gear lever up – to the right, then this is in Mode mode (ie in the initial middle position), then we move up again
• – Number 4 is opposite number 3, so we just need to move the gear lever to the Mode position and pull it down
• – Number 5, we move the gear lever to the Mode position, then left and up
• – Equivalent to R – backward

However, if you want to run, you need to combine with the brake pedal, accelerator and clutch to be able to move. Above is how to adjust the gearbox so that when we drive, we alternately use it. That is, when you run slowly, you use the stop gear to leave Mode, when moving you can increase the gears slowly, depending on the speed you accelerate and use this gearbox. There are some of you who are running at high speed, but when you return to number 1, the machine will maintain immediately or when you return to a red light, stop at number 4, number 5, the machine will not run. So we have to depend on the speed to adjust this gearbox so that it is reasonable.

How will we test the combination of clutch and accelerator pedal?

When we want to start the engine, we need to step on the clutch and brake, turn on the ignition key. After the car starts, we start upshifting to go, moving forward from 1 to 5. Currently the car is in Mode, based on the diagram we adjust the gear lever to 1st gear, lower the handbrake, then from From releasing the brake pedal and clutch pedal, the car will start to rev up and go slowly at a speed of about 5km/h. Next, we release the brake pedal slowly, if we release it too quickly, it will turn off the engine in the middle of the road, which is very dangerous. Then we use the right foot to step on the gas, then at this time the speed is about 10km / h, we will step on the 2nd gear to make the car faster. We depress the clutch and pull the gear lever to 2nd gear, then release the clutch a bit. Meaning low gear, you release the clutch slowly, if in high gear, we release the cone faster. After releasing the clutch, we will see the car faster, if we want the car to go faster than 20km / h, we step on the gas, when the engine is crazy, we go to 3. To go to 3rd gear, we go to Mode push to 3rd, then we release the clutch lightly, click on the accelerator, this time we go up to about 25-30km/h, then we shift to 4th gear. When we return to 4th gear, we continue to step on the clutch, pull the lever to 4th gear, press the accelerator to speed faster. . When we run on fast roads, highways, high-speed highways, we will go to 5th gear. Depress the clutch, adjust the gear lever to 5th, then step on the gas and accelerate. However, we also need to practice to be able to use these functions in the most comfortable way.

Thematic Lawful Safe Driving Techniques

It should be noted that: Gearbox, clutch, accelerator, brake pedal need to be trained to be able to control smoothly and easily. Especially the number is quite low (Number 1), we dream the clutch slowly, Number 2 is a bit faster, in turn the numbers 3 -4 -5 are the same, depending on the speed, depending on the number to open the clutch. Rather than shifting gears and clutches to move away, if the combination is not uniform, the car may stall, may hum and may affect the quality of the engine later.
