When parking a vehicle with a manual transmission on a hill, you should set the parking brake first before you shift into gear and shut off the engine. This ensures that the vehicle is securely parked and will not roll. After securing the parking brake, you can then shift the transmission into gear (typically first gear if facing uphill, or reverse if facing downhill) and then turn off the engine. This combination helps prevent the vehicle from rolling in case the parking brake fails.
