Uphill driving

Danger!
Danger of severe or fatal injuries and risk of
damage if the vehicle should overturn.
f Do not turn round when driving uphill.
f If it is not possible to climb a gradient, the
vehicle must be backed down in reverse gear.
f Do not drive over embankments or slopes at
an angle to the line of maximum gradient.
f If the vehicle starts to tilt, immediately steer in
the direction of the tilt (line of slope).
f When driving uphill, never allow the vehicle to
roll back in Tiptronic selector lever position N
(neutral).
Exclusive use of the footbrake is too risky in
such situations.

driving, and try to avoid stopping.
