Driving Guidelines
If you decide it is safe to drive down a hill:
• Hold the steering wheel firmly and drive straight back down the
hill.
• Gently apply the brakes to help control speed, but do not “ride”
the brakes.
Crossing a Hill
Before traversing a hill, consider these facts:
• A hill that you can drive straight up or down can be too steep to
drive across.
• When you drive straight up or down a slope, the length of the
wheelbase reduces the chance of tipping over backward or
forward, but when you drive across a slope, the vehicle’s
narrower track and higher center of gravity increases the chance
of tipping or rolling over.
• If you drive across a slope and an uphill wheel hits a bump, or a
downhill wheel drops into a hole, your vehicle will tip downward
even more.
If you can’t clearly see all terrain conditions (good traction, no
bumps, holes or other obstacles, etc.), stop and walk the slope
before you drive on it. If you have any doubt whether you can safely
drive across a slope, don’t do it. Find another route.
Avoiding Obstacles
When driving off-road, always watch for bumps, pot holes, rain ruts
and other obstacles. Large bumps and holes can bounce you around
and cause you to lose control or get stuck. Slow down whenever you
drive on rough terrain.
