Driving in steep terrain
.
Please first read and note the introductory information and heed the WARNINGS
Driving on slopes
Before driving up or down a slope, get out of the vehicle, explore the terrain, and assess the situation.
Walk the grade you intend to drive, check the stretch for firmness and obstacles or other hidden
dangers ⇒ 
.
Find out how the route continues at the end of a steep angle.
If the route is too steep or too uneven or the ground is too loose, do not drive this route. Find an
alternative.
Drive at a constant speed straight up or down a slope.
Use just as much power as needed to get up the slope. Too much power makes the tires slip, spin,
or lose traction. This can increase your risk of losing control. However, too little power will increase the
likelihood of stalling.
Never stop or try to turn around on a slope.
Do not let the engine stall.
Do not change gears while climbing the slope.
If you get stuck while driving up a slope
Never try to turn around.
If your engine stalls, apply the foot break and restart the engine.
Shift into reverse and back your vehicle CARefully straight down the slope.
Use the brake to keep the speed steady when backing down to a safe place.
Driving down a slope
Never exceed the vehicle's maximum lateral angle (vehicle slope). If an emergency forces you to
cross the slope and the vehicle threatens to roll over, immediately steer the vehicle downhill along the
fall line.
There is an increased risk of rollover when driving down a slope. For this reason, concentrate on
steering safely down the slope.
Use Hill Descent Assist on steep descents.
Drive down steep slopes in first gear.
Gently apply the foot brake to help keep the vehicle under control.
If it is possible and if it is not dangerous, drive straight down the fall line (maximum slope).
Do not shift into Neutral (N).
