Driving Safely
Driving on a Sidehill (Sidehilling)
Improperly crossing hills or turning on hills can result in loss of control or
vehicle overturn, resulting in severe injury or death. Avoid crossing the side
of a hill when possible. Follow proper procedures as outlined in the owner's
manual.
Sidehilling can be dangerous and should be avoided if at all possible. If
you encounter a situation where sidehilling is necessary, follow these
precautions:
1. Slow down.
2. Shift your weight uphill.
3. Keep your feet on the footrests.
4. Steer slightly into the hill to maintain vehicle direction.
NOTE:
If the vehicle begins to tip, quickly turn the front wheel downhill, if pos-
sible, or dismount on the uphill side immediately!
