OPERATION
Driving Uphill
Whenever traveling uphill, follow these precautions:
1. Always travel
straight uphill.
2. Avoid steep hills
(15° maximum).
3. Keep both feet on
the floor.
4. Always check the
terrain carefully
before ascending
any hill.
5. Never climb hills
with excessively
slippery or loose
surfaces.
6. Proceed at a steady rate of speed.
7. Never go over the crest of a hill at high speed. An obstacle, a sharp
drop, or another vehicle or person could be on the other side of the
hill.
8. If the vehicle stalls while climbing a hill, apply the brakes. Place the
direction selector in neutral, turn the key off and on, then select low
range. Place the direction selector switch in reverse and slowly
allow the vehicle to roll straight downhill while applying light brake
pressure to control speed.
