OVErhEating Prolonged driving with overheated ﬂuids can cause

damage to your vehicle. If temperature gauges register abnormally

high, if there is a marked decrease in power or if you hear unusual

engine noises, immediately take the following steps:

 • 

Pull your vehicle to the side of the road. Once stopped, shift into

park (automatic transmissions) or neutral (manual transmissions)

and apply the parking brakes. Leave the engine running.

•

Turn off air conditioning and other accessories to reduce load

on the engine. Roll down the windows and turn the heater on to

maximum and the fan to its highest setting. The heater core

provides a second cooling surface that can help reduce engine

temperatures.

•

If you suspect that the overheating is the result of climbing a

long, steep grade, run the engine at fast idle (around 1500 rpm)

until the temperature gauge registers a normal reading.

•

With the vehicle in park or neutral and the parking brake

engaged and being mindful of trafﬁc, exit your vehicle and look

for steam or leaking coolant underneath the engine. If you see

either of these, shut the engine off and allow the engine to cool.

To avoid being burned, do not attempt to remove the radiator

cap until the engine has cooled.

parking On graDES Parking on steep grades with a trailer

is not recommended; if you must, follow this procedure:

•

Apply the brakes and shift into neutral.

•

Have someone block the trailer’s wheels on the downgrade side.

•

Release the brakes until the blocks absorb the load.

•

Apply the parking brake and shift into park.

LEaVing yOur parking SpOt On graDES

•

Hold the brake pedal down and start the engine.

•

Shift into gear and release the parking brake.

•

Release brake and drive uphill slightly until free from the blocks.

•

Apply brakes and have someone retrieve the blocks.

cOrnEring The turning radius of a trailer is typically much

smaller than that of your vehicle; therefore, a trailer may hit soft

shoulders, curbs, trees or other objects when making tight turns.

Taking turns sharply can also cause the trailer to strike against

and damage the tow vehicle. When approaching a sharp corner,

brake sooner than normal to reduce vehicle speed before entering

the turn. Drive the vehicle slightly past the normal turning point and

then ﬁrmly turn the steering wheel. By cornering at a wider angle,

both vehicle and trailer should safely clear the inside of the turn.

> >

paSSing When passing, allow additional time and distance to safely

pass the other vehicle. Signal your intention to pass well in advance

and, when reentering the lane, make certain your trailer is clear of

the vehicle you have passed. Never pass on hills or around curves.

> >

Backing up To back up a trailer, place one hand at the 6 o’clock

position on the steering wheel. To move the trailer to the left,

move your hand to the left. To move the trailer to the right, move

your hand to the right. Back up slowly, and move the steering

wheel in small increments to help maintain control. To assist in

backing up, it is helpful to have someone outside the vehicle to

guide you. Make certain you can see your spotter at all times.

> >

DriVing On graDES Before going down a steep incline, reduce

your speed and shift the transmission into a lower gear. This

provides “engine braking” and reduces the need to brake for

long periods. When driving up a steep grade, shift to a lower

gear for more torque to maintain speed and avoid lugging.

Lugging occurs when the vehicle’s engine stutters because it

needs to be in a lower gear. Crest the hill no faster than the speed

at which you want to descend and in the gear you expect will

require little braking. Pay attention to your temperature gauges

for any signs of overheating.
