Driving in the mountains — “up and down” — stay safe by using the right gear!
An easy rule to remember: “On steep roads, use a low gear.”
Automatic Transmission (Auto)
- Uphill: Use D and accelerate normally.
- Downhill: Shift to 2 or S to help slow the vehicle using engine braking.
Manual Transmission
- Uphill: Use a low gear to get more pulling power.
- Downhill: Use a low gear to help brake with the engine (engine braking).
⚠️ Warning: Do not ride the brakes continuously when going downhill — this can cause brake fade or brake failure. Use your gears to assist.
