What is the correct way to use a Mercedes-Benz for steep slope climbing?
1 Answers
When starting, simply pull the handbrake tightly, slowly release the clutch to the engagement point, then immediately stabilize the clutch and release the handbrake. Using a high gear to forcefully climb a slope will cause the car's speed to drop sharply, making gear shifting (from a higher gear to a lower one) difficult. When driving up a steep slope, it is necessary to select an appropriate gear according to the slope conditions to ensure the engine maintains sufficient power. When approaching the top of the slope, pay attention to oncoming vehicles or pedestrians to prevent traffic accidents, as this can create certain blind spots in normal visibility.
