• Always return the backrest of your seat to an upright position before ascending slopes! We
recommend that you lean the backrest slightly to the rear before descending slopes!
• Never attempt to ascend or descend a slope on slippery surfaces or where there is a danger
of skidding (such as wet pavement, ice etc)!
• Avoid trying to get out of the vehicle on an incline or a gradient!
• Always drive straight in the direction the road or path you are on goes, rather than attempting
to zigzag!
