Parking on Hills
CAUTION:
CAUTION:
It can be dangerous to get out of your vehicle if
the shift lever is not fully in PARK (P) with the
parking brake firmly set. Your vehicle can roll.
You really should not park your vehicle, with
a trailer attached, on a hill. If something goes
wrong, your rig could start to move. People can
be injured, and both your vehicle and the trailer
can be damaged.
If you have left the engine running, the vehicle
can move suddenly. You or others could be
injured. To be sure your vehicle won’t move, even
when you’re on fairly level ground, use the steps
that follow.
But if you ever have to park your rig on a hill, here’s
how to do it:
Always put the shift lever fully in PARK (P) with
the parking brake firmly set.
1.
Apply your regular brake, but don’t shift into
PARK (P) yet.
If the transfer case on four-wheel drive vehicles
is in NEUTRAL, your vehicle will be free to roll,
even if your shift lever is in PARK (P). So, be
sure the transfer case is in a drive gear -- not
in NEUTRAL.
2.
3.
Have someone place chocks under the trailer wheels.
When the wheel chocks are in place, release the
regular brakes until the chocks absorb the load.
4.
5.
6.
Reapply the regular brakes. Then apply your parking
brake and shift into PARK (P).
If you have a four-wheel-drive vehicle, be sure the
transfer case is in a drive gear and not in NEUTRAL (N).
Release the regular brakes.
