On a long uphill grade, shift down and reduce your

speed to around 45 mph (70 km/h) to reduce the

possibility of engine and transaxle overheating.

Pay attention to the engine coolant gage. If the indicator

is in the red area, turn off the air conditioning to reduce

engine load (see “Engine Overheating” in the Index).

Parking on Hills

CAUTION:

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.

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 shift into PARK (P).

5. Release the regular brakes.

When You Are Ready to Leave After

Parking on a Hill

1. Apply your regular brakes and hold the pedal down

while you:

Start your engine;

Shift into a gear; and

Release the parking brake.

2. Let up on the brake pedal.

3. Drive slowly until the trailer is clear of the chocks.

4. Stop and have someone pick up and store the chocks.
