OPERATION

Driving Safely

Parking on an Incline

Avoid parking on an incline if possible. If it’s unavoidable, follow

these precautions:
1. Place the transmission in gear.

2. Set the parking brake.

3. Block the rear wheels on the downhill side.

WARNING

A rolling vehicle can cause property damage and serious injury.

Always apply the parking brake after stopping the engine. Always

block the downhill side of the wheels if leaving the vehicle on a

hill, or park the vehicle in a sidehill position instead.
Operating the vehicle while the parking brake is engaged could

cause loss of control and result in serious injury or death. Always

disengage the parking brake before operating the vehicle.
