Suppose, after stalling,
I
try
to
back down
the hill and decide
I
just
can’t do it. What
should
I
do?
A:
Set the parking brake, put
your
transmission
in
PARK
(P)
(or
the manual transmission in
FIRST
(1))
and
turn
off
the engine. Leave
the
vehicle
and
go get some help. Exit
on
the uphill
side and stay clear
of
the path the vehicle would
take if it rolled downhill.
Do
not shift the transfer
case to
NEUTRAL
(N)
when you leave
the
vehicle.
Leave
it
in
some
gear.
/A
CAUTION:
-
Shifting the transfer case
to
NEUTRAL
(N)
can
cause your vehicle to roll even if the transmission
is in
PARK
(P)
(or, if you have the manual
transmission, even if you’re in gear). This is
because the
NEUTRAL (N)
position on the
transfer case overrides the transmission.
If
you
are going
to
leave your vehicle, set the parking
brake
and
shift
the transmission
to
PARK
(P)
(or,
put
your
manual transmission in
FIRST
(1)).
But
do
not shift the transfer case to the
NEUTRAL
(N)
position. Leave the transfer
case
in the
2H,
4H
or
4L
position.
