OPERATION

Driving Safely

Sidehilling

Sidehilling can be a dangerous type of driving and should be avoided if

at all possible. If you do enter into a situation where sidehilling is

necessary, follow these precautions:
1. Slow down.
2. Lean into the hill, transferring your upper body weight toward the

hill while keeping your feet on the footrests.

3. Steer slightly into the hill to maintain vehicle directions.
NOTE: If the vehicle begins to tip, quickly turn the front wheel

downhill, if possible, or dismount on the uphill side immediately!

Improperly crossing hills or turning on hills can result in loss of

control or vehicle overturn, resulting in severe injury or death. Avoid

crossing the side of a hill when possible. Follow proper procedures

as outlined in the owner’s manual.
