Driving Downhill

Whenever descending a hill, follow these precautions:
-
Avoid excessively steep hills.
-
Slow down. Never travel down a hill at high speed.
-
Always check the terrain carefully before descending a hill. Never drive on hills with excessively slippery or loose surfaces.
-
Always descend a hill with the transmission in forward gear. Never descend a hill with the transmission in neutral.
-
Avoid traveling down a hill at an angle, which would cause the vehicle to lean sharply to one side. Travel straight downhill.
-
Apply the brakes lightly to aid in slowing.
