HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
Always follow proper procedures for
traveling down hills as described in the
owner's manual. See page 75.
If your ATV is equipped with Active
Descent Control, always engage AWD
before descending a hill. See page 49.
Always check the terrain carefully before descending a hill.
Never operate this ATV in TURF mode while operating on a hill or other
irregular terrain. See page 47.
Always descend a hill with the transmission in forward gear. Do not descend
a hill with the transmission in neutral.

Never travel down a hill at high speed.
Avoid traveling down a hill at an angle, which would cause the vehicle to lean
sharply to one side. Travel straight down the hill when possible.
