OPERATION
Driving Downhill
When driving downhill, follow
these precautions:
1. Avoid steep hills (25°
maximum).
2. Shift body weight uphill.
3. Drive straight downhill.
4. Slow down. Excessive
speed when traveling down-
hill can cause loss of con-
trol.
5. Squeeze the brake lever
gradually. Applying the
brakes too firmly may cause
the rear wheels to lock,
which could result in loss of
control.
Parking on an Incline
Avoid parking on an incline if
possible. If it's unavoidable,
follow these precautions:
1. Stop the engine.
2. Place the transmission in
PARK.
3. Lock the parking brake.
4. Always block the rear
wheels on the downhill side.
