DRIVING TIPS
Here are some things you must not
do if you stall, or are about to stall,
when going up a hill.
Stalled on a Steep Uphill
CAUTION
If your vehicle stalls and you can’t
back down the hill, try this: Set the
parking brake, put your transmission
in 1 (First) gear or P (Park), and turn
the engine off. Leave the vehicle and
get some help. If your vehicle is at an
angle to the slope of the hill, exit the
vehicle on the uphill side and stay
clear of the path the vehicle would
take if it rolled downhill. Leave it in 1
(First) gear for manual transmission
or P (Park) for automatic transmis-
sion.
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’s
steep enough to cause you to
roll over if you turn around. If
you can’t make it up, you must
back down the hill.
•
Never attempt to prevent a stall by
depressing the clutch or shifting to
N (Neutral) to “rev-up” the engine
and regain forward momentum.
This won’t work. Your vehicle will
roll backwards very quickly and you
could go out of control or roll over.
Instead, apply the brake to stop the
vehicle. Then apply the parking
brake. Shift into reverse, release the
parking brake, and slowly back down.
