OPERATION
DRIVING DOWNHILL
Whenever descending a hill, follow these precautions:
1. Avoid excessively steep hills.
2. Slow down. Never travel down a hill at high speed.
3. Always check the terrain carefully before descending a hill. Never drive on
hills with excessively slippery or loose surfaces.
4. Always descend a hill with the transmission in forward gear. Never descend
a hill with the transmission in neutral.
5. Avoid traveling down a hill at an angle, which would cause the vehicle to lean
sharply to one side. Travel straight downhill.
6. Apply the brakes lightly to aid in slowing.
