One gear down from normal road gear, but remember the transmission is not meant to be a brake.
You should change down to a lower gear, 3rd gear or if the grade is very steep 2nd gear.
low gear, first or second depending on the steepness
That asking price seems rather steep. Put your car into a lower gear to drive down a long, steep hill. Let the tea steep for several minutes.
Shift down in to a lower gear.
gear down and use the motor to assist in braking
Use a low gear. Which gear you should use depends on how steep a hill you are talking about and also how far down does the hill go. and are you using a standard or automatic transmission. Common sense should tell you to use a lower gear if the vehicle accelarates to much.
Downshift to the next lower gear. If it is very steep, go down another gear. Make sure you don't over-rev the engine though.
NO... you should use a lower gear if you want to slow down not higher.
Traditionally, you would've been told to use the same gear you went up the hill in to go down the hill. However, it may be necessary to drop a gear, given that modern vehicles are much more aerodynamic than previous vehicles were.
You should brake at the top of the hill and slow down to a speed where you can change down to the next lowest gear. Anticipation is most important, as you may need to change down again to the next lowest gear. Engine braking helps to prevent overheating the brakes, and also assists vehicle stability on steep hills.
It is for going up steep hills and 4 wheel drive, it locks the tramission into a gear in order to stop it shifting down on a steep climb and stressing the gearbox/Engine
