As you are backing down the hill, put your left
hand on the steering wheel at the 12 o’clock
position. This way, you will be able to tell if the
wheels are straight and maneuver as you
back down. It is best that you back down the
hill with the wheels straight rather than in
the left or right direction. Turning the wheel
too far to the left or right will increase the
possibility of a rollover.
Here are some things youmust notdo if you stall,
or are about to stall, when going up a hill.
Never attempt to prevent a stall by shifting
into NEUTRAL (N), or pressing the clutch
if your vehicle has a manual transmission,
to rev-up the engine and regain forward
momentum. This will not work. Your vehicle
will roll backwards very quickly and you
could go out of control.
Instead, apply the regular brake to stop
the vehicle. Then apply the parking brake.
Shift to REVERSE (R), release the parking
brake, and slowly back straight down.
Never attempt to turn around if you are about
to stall when going up a hill. If the hill is
steep enough to stall your vehicle, it is steep
enough to cause you to roll over if you
turn around. If you cannot make it up the
hill, you must back straight down the hill.
Q:Suppose, after stalling, I try to back
down the hill and decide I just cannot
do it. What should I do?
A:Set the parking brake, put the automatic
transmission in PARK (P), or the manual
transmission in FIRST (1), and turn off
the engine. Leave the vehicle and go get
some help. Exit on the uphill side and
stay clear of the path the vehicle would
take if it rolled downhill.
