A manual car is a car that runs with a manual gear shift.Since recent cars are all automatic, all gear shifting is done automatically.The automatic cars drive with only two pedals of accelerator and brake, while manual cars drive with another pedal in addition called the clutch.What Is the Clutch Pedal?To explain it briefly, the clutch plays the role of separating the engine and the tire while driving.The clutch pedal is the pedal for operating the car's clutch.
When you step on the clutch pedal, it disconnects the engine and the tires.
And when we release it, it connects the engine and the tires.The reason why clutch exists in the manual car is because the transmission is manually operated.Because of its structure, manual transmission car cannot shift up or down the gear while driving since the engine is connected to the tires.
So, for you to shift up or down the gear, the engine needs to be temporarily disconnected to the tires by using the clutch function.Tips for Driving a Manual CarTry Connecting the Clutch in the Stopped StateEvery clutch pedal in different cars has its own so called "habit" when you use it.So it is important to grasp the sense of how far the clutch will be connected when you release the clutch pedal at the first time.
So before you start running, start the engine with the clutch pedal pressed down.Make sure the clutch is connected properly and pull up the hand brake to avoid sudden run or jumps.And after that, set the gear to 2nd gear, since setting it to 1st gear could easily cause sudden jumps.So now let's try to release the clutch pedal little by little and try to remember at which point the car starts to accelerate.Half Clutch When StartingStepping on the clutch pedal cuts the connection between engine and the tires, and releasing it suddenly would either cause sudden run or engine stop.To transmit the power of the engine to the tires, release the pedal slowly.As you release it slowly, the engine's speed will drop a little and the car will start to advance forward.
This state is called "half clutch" state.
