DRIVING DOWNHILL
When driving downhill, follow these precautions:
1. Always move the 4X4 switch to ADC 4X4 (if equipped) before ascending or
descending a hill. Never operate in TURF mode while operating on a hill or
other irregular terrain.
2. Avoid steep hills. Maximum incline is:
15° (Touring/X2)
25° (1-up Models)
3. Always check the terrain carefully before descending a hill.
4. Always descend a hill with the transmission in forward gear. Do not descend
a hill with the transmission in neutral.
5. Slow down. Never travel down a hill at high speed.
6. Drive straight downhill. Avoid traveling down a hill at an angle, which would
cause the vehicle to lean sharply to one side.
7. Shift body weight uphill. A passenger should also shift body weight uphill.
8. Apply the brakes slightly to aid in slowing. Applying the brakes too firmly may
cause the rear wheels to lock, which could result in loss of control.
