SAFE OPERATION 91 Remember: żSome hills are too steep. Use common sense. żNever drive past your limit of visibility. If you can't see what is on the other side of the crest of a hill, slow down until you can get a clear view. żDon't turn sideways to the hill. żIf you get stuck on a hill, roll slowly straight back down, using the brake, with the gear shift lever left in the "H" (High) or "L" (Low) position. Antenna Flag In hilly country, use an antenna flag so others can see you coming from the other side of a hill or sand dune. Take extra care when approaching blind hill tops and corners. NOTE j żWhen the throttle pedal is released completely and the engine speed drops near an idle, the vehicle has no engine braking. This is caused by the vehicle's automatic transmission which releases the engine at very low speed to prevent it from stalling. Use the brakes to control the vehicle's speed.

SAFE OPERATION
91
j
Remember:
°
Some hills are too steep. Use common sense.
°
Never drive past your limit of visibility. If you can’t
see what is on the other side of the crest of a hill,
slow down until you can get a clear view.
°
Don’t turn sideways to the hill.
°
If you get stuck on a hill, roll slowly straight back
down, using the brake, with the gear shift lever left
in the “H” (High) or “L” (Low) position.
NOTE
°
When the throttle pedal is released completely and
the engine speed drops near an idle, the vehicle
has no engine braking. This is caused by the ve-
hicle’s automatic transmission which releases the
engine at very low speed to prevent it from stalling.
Use the brakes to control the vehicle’s speed.
Antenna Flag
In hilly country, use an antenna flag so others can
see you coming from the other side of a hill or sand
dune.
Take extra care when approaching blind hill tops
and corners.
