Many people have been driving for a long time, but when it comes to how to use the hand-to-hand integrated mode, I am afraid that many drivers are still at a loss, and even some people have not really understood how this function works after driving for a long time. Hand-to-hand integration is actually a very practical driving mode, but if it is not used correctly, the car may behave very stiff in some cases and even affect the driving experience.
The automatic manual mode is actually a manual switching mode in an automatic transmission vehicle, which allows the driver to manually control the gear as needed. In this mode, the driver can adjust the gear according to the driving demand on the basis of automatic gear, which not only retains the convenience of automatic gear, but also enjoys the sense of control of manual gear. Therefore, this design satisfies the car owners who like to drive easily and want to feel in control to a certain extent.
In the process of driving, we often encounter some special road conditions, such as uphill and downhill or scenes of rapid acceleration and deceleration. At this time, relying solely on automatic transmission, the car may not respond quickly enough or accurately enough. At this time, it needs to be adjusted through the automatic manual mode. Take uphill as an example. When you encounter a long uphill section, the vehicle may frequently shift gears in automatic transmission mode, which will affect the smoothness and efficiency of power output. However, if switching to manual mode, the driver can choose the appropriate gear according to the gradient and speed, so as to ensure the stability of power output and avoid the trouble of automatic gear jumping back and forth.
Regarding the specific operation of the automatic manual mode, many drivers have not actually read the vehicle manual carefully. Generally, there will be a sign of "+"and "-"next to the lever of automatic transmission, which is the control method of manual mode. When you push "+",it is equivalent to an upshift, while pushing "-"is a downshift. The key point of this operation is to pay attention to the matching of vehicle speed and speed. When operating in manual mode, many novice drivers habitually shift gears at will, but they don’t pay attention to the speed, which will lead to a sense of frustration in the car and even affect the life of the engine.
Manual-automatic integration mode can also play a great role in high-speed driving. For example, when you need to overtake quickly, in automatic transmission mode, the vehicle often needs time to judge whether to upshift or downshift, which will lead to a delay in dynamic response. If you use manual mode at this time and downshift one or two gears in advance, the engine speed can be rapidly increased, giving the vehicle greater power output, and overtaking will become smoother and safer.
In the same way, when you encounter downhill, the automatic manual mode can also help you control the speed better. In the process of downhill for a long time, many car owners only rely on the brakes to control the speed, which not only makes the brakes overheat, but also increases the risk of the vehicle losing control. If you switch to manual mode and use a lower gear to brake the engine, the speed will be easier to control, reduce the dependence on the brake and protect the brake system.
The manual-automatic integration mode is not only useful in specific road conditions, but also provides more driving pleasure in daily driving. For example, some old drivers like to use manual mode in urban congested sections, which can avoid the unsmooth feeling caused by frequent shifting gears of automatic gears at low speed. Manual control makes the car more stable at low speed without any setback. For some car owners who pursue driving pleasure, the automatic manual mode is an important function, which can provide more sense of vehicle control in curves and complex road conditions.
However, although the hand-to-self integration model has many advantages, we should also pay attention to avoid some common misunderstandings. Many novice drivers think that the operation in manual mode is similar to that in automatic transmission, and frequent upshifts do not take into account the speed matching, which will easily lead to excessive engine load, increase fuel consumption and even damage the gearbox and engine. Therefore, it is suggested that the vehicle tachometer should be observed every time it is operated, and the rotation speed should be kept within a reasonable range, usually between 2000 and 3000 revolutions, which can ensure the power output without increasing the burden on the engine.
In some sports cars or high-performance cars, the automatic manual mode will be used more frequently. For example, many models of BMW, Audi, Mercedes-Benz and other brands are equipped with shift paddles. This design is to allow drivers to shift gears quickly without leaving the steering wheel, and improve the operability and safety of driving. On these models, the design of the manual-automatic integration mode is not only to make the vehicle feel more controlled, but also one of the keys to improve the vehicle performance. Especially in some track driving or highways, the intervention of manual mode can make the power of the vehicle more directly transmitted to the wheels, so that the driver can control the state of the vehicle at any time.
In addition, when driving in the manual mode, we should pay attention to a common detail, that is, when it is most appropriate to switch to the manual mode. Usually, if you are just driving in an ordinary city, you can completely rely on the automatic transmission system, and its logic can cope with daily traffic conditions well. When you encounter more complicated road conditions or need a better sense of control, the hand-to-body mode can come in handy. The timing of switching manual mode should not be too early or too late. The best way is to switch it a little before you need to operate, such as before going uphill and overtaking.
Of course, the automatic manual mode is not suitable for frequent use by every car. For example, some old automatic transmission models may not be as smart as the latest gearbox technology, and they are not smooth enough to use. And some new models, especially those equipped with dual-clutch gearbox, tend to be more smooth and efficient in the manual-to-automatic mode. Therefore, before using it, you should also choose whether to use it frequently according to the actual situation of your car.
Sometimes, drivers will encounter some specific problems, such as the lack of power or the increase of fuel consumption after driving for a long time. At this time, many people will ignore the role of the automatic manual mode. In fact, through the rational use of manual mode, the power output of the vehicle can be made more linear, and the efficiency of the automatic transmission system can be avoided due to frequent gear shifting, which is also a common skill of old drivers. Hand-to-hand integration mode is not only to deal with special road conditions, but also to provide you with a better driving experience in many driving scenarios.
Therefore, although the hand-to-self integration mode seems complicated, mastering the correct operation method will not only make you more handy in daily driving, but also effectively improve driving safety and vehicle service life. Only by mastering the speed, choosing the gear reasonably and knowing the performance characteristics of your own vehicle can you really give full play to the advantages of the automatic manual mode.
For many old drivers, the mode of hand-to-hand integration is not only a sign of technical improvement, but also a manifestation of driving pleasure. I hope that every car owner can enjoy a smoother, safer and more enjoyable driving experience in daily driving by mastering the manual-automatic mode.
