When towing at high altitude
on
steep uphill grades, consider the following:
Engine coolant will boil at a lower temperature than at normal altitudes.
If
you
turn
your engine off immediately after towing at high altitude on steep
uphill grades, your vehicle may show signs similar
to
engine overheating.
To avoid this,
let
the engine
run
while parked (preferably
on
level ground)
with the automatic transmission in PARK
(P)
(or the manual transmission
out
of gear and the parking brake applied) for a few minutes before turning
the engine off. If
you
do get
the
overheat warning, see “Engine
Overheating” in the Index.
Parking
on
Hills
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.
But if you ever have
to
park your rig on a
hill,
here’s how
to
do it:
1. Apply your regular brakes, but don’t shift into PARK (P)
yet,
or into
gear for a manual transmission. Then turn your wheels into the curb if
facing downhill or into traffic if facing uphill.
2.
Have someone place chocks under the trailer wheels.
3.
When the wheel chocks are in place, release the regular brakes until the
chocks absorb the load.
4.
Reapply the regular brakes. Then apply your parking brake, and then
shift into PARK (P), or REVERSE
(R)
for a manual transmission.
5.
If
you
have a four-wheel-drive vehicle with a manual transfer case
shift lever, be sure
the
transfer case is in a drive gear
-
not in
NEUTRAL
(N).
6.
Release the parking brake.
