Driving Safely
Driving Downhill
When driving downhill, follow
these precautions:
1. Check the terrain carefully.
2. Avoid hills with
excessively slippery or
loose surfaces.
3. Never drive downhill at
high speed.
4. Slow down.
5. Avoid driving downhill at
an angle, which can cause
the vehicle to pitch sharply
to one side. Drive straight
downhill.
6. Shift your weight rearward.
7. Apply the brakes slightly to aid in slowing.
Always follow the procedures outlined
in this manual for driving downhill and
for braking on hills.
Never operate at excessive speeds.
Travel and turn at speeds appropriate
for the terrain, visibility, operating
conditions and your experience.
