Hill Starts

On steep hills creep may be insufficient to get you moving after you release the foot brake. Some automatics have a feature that will prevent roll back, but if yours doesn't, you should use the following routine.

With the handbrake on, very gently apply a little pressure to the gas pedal.
You will feel the nose of the car rise slightly.
Release the handbrake and let the car creep forwards a little before gently pressing down on the accelerator.

Driving Downhill

To help control the speed of the car, and to save you having to brake excessively, when driving down hill you should select one of the locked gear positions, either 1, 2 or 3. This will keep the car in the selected low gear and stop the automatic transmission selecting a high gear, which will help increase your speed.
