English term or phrase: engage in low range
Hallo,

es geht um Tipps für das Fahren mit Allradfahrzeugen am Hang. Wenn die Auffahrt misslingt und es rückwärts nach unten geht, wird folgende Anleitung gegeben:

Stall Recovery Technique (Manual vehicles):
Don't touch the clutch - this is harder than you think
While you're going into your engine stall depress the foot brake slowly and smoothly
Pull your hand brake.
Now you have three mechanical elements that prevent you from rolling backwards: you're still in gear, your foot brake and your hand brake
If someone can get out of the car to guide you back down great, but don't get out of the car as this means you're releasing the foot brake
Put your foot gently back on the clutch
Shift your vehicle into reverse gear and **engage in low range**
Slowly take your foot off the clutch
With your foot still on the foot brake , slowly release the hand brake
Carefully and slowly remove your foot brake
With reverse gear engaged and the engine off, you should remain still
Restart your engine with your foot off the clutch to let the car's engine braking control to assist in your descent.

Hat jemand eine Idee, was hier mit "engage in low range" gemeint ist?

Besten Dank!
