DRIVING UPHILL
Shifting from a higher to a lower
gear when driving uphill should
be performed soon enough to
prevent a drop of speed of the
engine under 800 min
-1
and driv-
ing leading to stop of the engine
due to its overloading.
DRIVING DOWNHILL
Driving downhill without shifted
gear is forbidden. When driving
downhill for a longer time, shift as
low gear as steep the road is. If
possible, shift a lower gear before
you start driving downhill.
Note: You can go downhill safely with
the same gear engaged as you should
shift it when driving uphill.
