What is the correct way to park in automatic gear?

The automatic car of Pacific Auto Network has two stopping steps. The first is to park on a flat road, and the other is to park on a ramp. Let me tell you how to park on a flat road first. After braking, first pull the hand brake, then put it in neutral, then slowly release the foot brake, and then quickly push it to P gear to stall.

Next, let's talk about the correct operation method of ramp parking. You should pay attention to parking on the ramp, because there is a gap between cars after they pull the handbrake. If you don't wait for the gap between slopes to run out and push it directly to P gear at this time, the ratchet wheel of the gearbox will get stuck, and it will be difficult to get out of P gear next time, and sometimes it will even get stuck. The correct operation method should be to step on the brake and wait for the car to stop, then put the hand brake into N gear, and slowly release the foot brake, which is loose.

To sum up, when parking, it is recommended that you follow the rules. Put in neutral first, put on the hand brake, and then put in P gear. When waiting for the traffic lights, never put it in P gear to prevent rear-end collision and damage to the gearbox. In addition, if your car has automatic parking function, I suggest you turn it on, because when you park, ECU will turn on automatic parking, so you don't have to consider so many problems.
