Driving your vehicle
Parking on hills
5. Start the vehicle, hold the brakes, shift
to  neutral, release  the  parking  brake
and slowly release the brakes until the
trailer chocks absorb the load.
6. Reapply the brakes, reapply  the park-
ing  brake  and  shift the  vehicle  to  R
(Reverse)  for  manual  transaxle  or P
(Park)   for  automatic   transaxle/dual
clutch transmission.
CAUTION
Generally, if you have a trailer attached to
your  vehicle, you  should  not  park  your
vehicle on a hill. People can be seriously
or  fatally injured,  and both  your  vehicle
and the  trailer can be  damaged if unex-
pectedly roll down hill.
When  towing  a  trailer  on  steep
grades   (in  excess   of   6%)  pay
close   attention   to   the   engine
coolant   temperature    gauge   to
ensure the engine  does not over-
heat.
If the  needle  of the  coolant tem-
perature gauge moves across the
dial towards  “H” (HOT), pull  over
and stop  as soon as  it is  safe to
do so, and allow the engine to idle
until it  cools down. You may pro-
ceed once the  engine has cooled
sufficiently.
WARNING - Parking  on a
hill
Parking your vehicle on a hill with a
trailer  attached  could  cause  seri-
ous injury or death, should the trail-
er break loose.
7. Shut  off the  vehicle  and  release  the
vehicle  brakes  but leave  the  parking
brake set.
WARNING - Parking brake
It  can be  dangerous  to get  out  of
your vehicle if  the parking brake is
not firmly set.
If you have left  the engine running,
the vehicle can move suddenly.You
or  others   could   be  seriously   or
fatally injured.
You  must  decide  driving   speed
depending  on trailer  weight  and
uphill grade  to reduce the  possi-
bility   of   engine  and   transaxle
overheating.
However,  if you  ever have  to  park your
trailer on a hill, here's how to  do it:
1.
Pull the vehicle into the parking space.
Turn the steering wheel in the direction
of the  curb (right  if headed  down hill,
left if headed up hill).
2.
If the  vehicle has a  manual transaxle,
place the  car in Neutral. If  the vehicle
has an automatic transaxle/dual clutch
transmission, place the car in P (Park).
3.
4.
Set the parking brake  and shut off the
vehicle.
Place chocks  under the trailer  wheels
on the down hill side of the  wheels.
