2. Move the gearshift lever to the neutral position. The neutral position is usually in the middle of the gear pattern.
3. Release the clutch pedal slowly. The car will now be in neutral and will not move even if the engine is running.
Here are some additional tips for putting a manual car in neutral:
* If the car is moving, be sure to come to a complete stop before shifting into neutral.
* If you are having trouble finding the neutral position, try gently rocking the gearshift lever from side to side while pressing the clutch pedal all the way down.
* If you are in a car with a synchronized transmission, you may be able to shift into neutral without pressing the clutch pedal. However, it is always a good practice to press the clutch pedal when shifting into neutral, as this will help to prevent damage to the transmission.
