YOGYAKARTA - For novice drivers, of course, going through the incline is not an easy thing. Especially if you have to park there. We have to rack our brains to know how to park an automatic car on the incline.

The reason is, cars with automatic transitions ranging from conventional automatic transmission (AT), CTV and DCT, of course, they will be equipped with P teeth for parking.

At first, to carry out car parks, make sure the position of the car is located parallel to the side of the road. If you park the vehicle facing up, make sure there is a full room behind for the car. Meanwhile, when parking the vehicle on a downhill slope, make sure it leaves a full room in the front of the car.

Here are important points that you must know when parking at the incline:

You are required to turn the wheel towards the edge of the road and have to direct the wheel away from the side of the road, if you park at a incline. If it is parked under the hill, then you must turn the wheel towards the side of the road.

You are required to press the leg brakes, then put the car in a neutral position after that it is mandatory to turn the steering wheel full of one round in the right direction, this matter will prevent the car from sliding onto the streets when the brakes fail.

If you do not find the sidewalk, then you must turn your front wheels to the side of the road and this can be tried when the car is facing up or down. This step will make the car run or roll onto the grass or soil which is located next to the road and will prevent cars from traveling to traffic lanes.

Keep in mind, you should not turn the wheels when the car stops, because it will put pressure on the tires and the power steering system that is running in the car.

When carrying out the overturning of the car to the side of the road, you must carry it out in a concentrationd position. Lift the brakes and let the car slide slowly down the hill, and this process is carried out until you feel that the front tire has been rotated to the side of the road.

When parking an automatic vehicle on the incline, don't forget to make sure there are no other cars that will go up or down the hill behind your car, the way to do that is by looking at the mirror mirror of the mirror to look at the back.

After the car is parked, leave the car and make sure the car is in the right parking zone again.

How to Automatic Car Parking

Use '1' or 'L' modes while at the incline

When you are in a incline with a fairly sharp slope and heavy traffic, you can set automatic transmission in '1' or 'L' modes. The '1' figure indicates the car is in mode 1, while the 'L' stands for 'Low', which means low teeth. In this position, acceleration can be controlled to maximize high torques to pass through the incline.

So, there is no need to worry about cars not climbing. By using this method, torques will be maximized and you will not experience problems when passing through inclines with extreme slopes.

When you want to climb down, the car will keep speeds in the lowest teeth so the engine brakes will work to control the speed of the car. So, be careful when driving with an automatic car!
