Driving downhill
When driving downhill, follow these precautions:
1. Avoid steep hills.
Maximum incline is:
No passenger
：
25°
With passenger
：
15°
3. Always check the terrain carefully before descending a hill.
4. Always descend a hill with the transmission in forward gear.
Do not descend a hill with the transmission in neutral.
5. Slow down. Never travel down a hill at high speed.
6. Drive straight downhill. Avoid traveling down a hill at an angle,
which would cause the vehicle to lean sharply to one side.
7. Shift body weight uphill. A passenger should also shift body
weight uphill.
8. Apply the brakes slightly to aid in slowing. Applying the brakes
too firmly may cause the rear wheels to lock, which could
result in loss of control.
