6.While holding the brake lever, release the parking brake lock and slowly allow the vehicle to roll around to your right until it's pointing across the hill or slightly downward.
7.Lock the parking brake. Remount the vehicle from the uphill side, keeping body weight uphill.
8.Start the engine with the transmission still in forward.
9.Release the parking brake and proceed slowly, controlling speed with the brake lever, until the vehicle is on more level ground.
