Driving on steep hills or through mountains is different than driving on flat or rolling terrain. Tips for driving in these conditions include:
Warning
Using the brakes to slow the vehicle on a long downhill slope can cause brake overheating, can reduce brake performance, and could result in a loss of braking.
Shift the transmission to a lower gear to let the engine assist the brakes on a steep downhill slope.
