WARNING
POTENTIAL HAZARD
Going down a hill improperly.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
Could cause loss of control or cause the
vehicle to overturn.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
Always check the terrain carefully be-
fore you start down any hill. Never go
down a hill at high speed. Avoid going
down a hill at an angle that would cause
the vehicle to lean sharply to one side.
Go straight down the hill where possi-
ble.
Before starting down hill, make sure the vehi-
cle is in low-range 4WD. On most slopes, this
will let you use engine braking to help you go
downhill slowly. Go as slowly as possible. If
you are starting to go too fast, apply the
brakes gently. Avoid sudden application of the
brakes, which could cause the vehicle to start
sliding.
If you are sliding or skidding, try to steer in the
direction the vehicle is sliding to help you re-
gain control.
If you must turn on the hill to avoid an obsta-
cle, do so slowly and carefully. If the vehicle
starts to tip, gradually steer in the downhill di-
rection if there are no obstacles in your path.
As you regain proper balance, gradually steer
again in the direction you want to go.
