gen#j
tly
press
the
brake
pedal
every
few
miles.
Ensure
that
this

efficiency
will
be
available when
you
need
it.
Hills General

going
all
the
way
to
first
gear,
if
needed.

Light
but
consistent
brake
pressure
can
lead
to
high
temperatures,
brakes
wearing
out
and possibly
even
brake
failure.
There
is
a
risk
ofaccident.
Avoid
placing
excessive
stress
on
the
brake
system.
