How to use the automatic transmission of the Ford Focus

Model: Ford Focus MK 4 - Years 2018-2025
Part: Transmission

In this video we see how to use the automatic transmission of the Ford Focus MK4: first of all, we remember that the automatic transmission does not have the clutch pedal; any maneuver we make with the gear lever, we must press the brake, and we see it displayed on the screen. Below the lever we find a button that is a kind of "clutch". So: foot on the brake, click on the button and pull the gear lever into the "D" position of "Drive", and leaving the brake the car starts. To stop, always with the foot on the brake we go to the "P" position which means "Parking", always following the same procedure for reverse we go to "R" and when we release the brake the car reverses. The "N" stands for neutral, so the car is in neutral and does not move. "S" is instead the "sport" mode and we can use the sequential mode found on the left side of the gear lever. If the selector is not in "P" the key will not come out of the ignition.
