Safety Warnings

Descending Hills Improperly

Improperly descending a hill could cause loss of control or

overturn.
• Always follow proper procedures for traveling down hills as

described in the owner's manual. NOTE: A special tech-

nique is required when braking while traveling downhill. See

page 78.

• Always descend a hill with the transmission in forward gear.

Do not descend a hill with the transmission in neutral.

• Always check the terrain carefully before descending a hill.
• Shift your weight rearward.
• 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.
