o Never take the vehicle out of gear
and coast down a hill. This is ex-
tremely hazardous. Always leave
the vehicle in gear.
o Don't "ride" the brakes. This can
cause them to overheat and mal-
function.Instead,whenyouaredriv-
ing down a long hill, slow down and
shift to a lower gear. When you do
this, engine braking will help slow
the car.

creased if you lose control of
your vehicle at highway speeds.

o Slow down when you encounter
cross winds. This gives you much
better control of your car.

stopped before you attempt to shift
into reverse. The transmission can
be damaged if you do not. To shift
into reverse, depress the clutch,
move the shift lever to neutral, wait
three seconds, then shift to the re-
verse position.
