start engine. tapak preno, lipat mo from P(button)R(pull)N(pull)D..sabi mo sprtronic-->do sideways (either left or right) +/--->pag timplahin mo rev ng engine at speed mo..you dont want to overrev the engine( example engaging 1st gear on a 100kph run!

pero kalimitan may safety systems na magpprevent ang tranny gawin to, pero mas maganda kung prevention comes from you too..kasi lalo na sa conventional a/t, you can never tell kung may ganitong program ang matic ng sasakyan mo...

ganito ang run kasi ng matic lever di nalalayo sa gated yan:

from P->D: P(button-pull)R(pull)N(pull)D
from D->P: D(push)N(button-push)R(button-push)P

just always rememer pag galing ka sa P or N be sure to tapak the brakes before engaging to either R or D..safety reasons then pag D bahala na ang tranny mo magtimpla-->kaya di mamatay ang engine..but never left your lever on D on medium to heavy traffic(while stepping on brakes of course) kasi sisirain nito matic mo->overheating the tranny and possible premature clutch wearout->unlike sa manual na isa lang ang dry-plate clutch ang matic have 1 clutch for each lever and gear selection (for a 4-speed matic count 4+P+R+N=7) masmanipis yan kaysa sa kikita mong pang manual...kaya pag sa stoplight, heavy or medium traffic, N ka, safety na din baka mapahinga ak, makalimutan mong nakatapak ka pa sa preno-->dami na nangyaring cases na ganyan, ayaw lang nilang aminin...
Di ko masyado ma-gets yung may pull/push. Can you elaborate? Yung sa traffic, balak ko hand-brake para di ako makakalimot. K lang ba yun?
