OPERATION

Driving Uphill

Whenever traveling
uphill, follow these
precautions:

1. Always check the

terrain carefully
before ascending a
hill.

2. Avoid steep hills

(15

° maximum).

3. Drive straight

uphill.

4. Never climb hills

with excessively
slippery or loose surfaces.

5. Proceed at a steady rate of speed and accelerator position. Never

apply full throttle suddenly.

6. Avoid unnecessary changes in speed or direction.

drop, or another vehicle or person could be on the other side of the
hill.

Direction Selector switch in reverse and slowly allow the vehicle to
roll straight downhill while applying light brake pressure to control
speed.
