Hill-start assist control (HAC) (if equipped)
A vehicle has the tendency to slip back
on a steep hill when it starts to go after
stopping. The Hill-start Assist Control
(HAC) prevents the vehicle from slipping
back by operating the brakes automati-
cally for about 1~2 seconds. The brakes
are released when the accelerator pedal
is depressed or after about 1~2 seconds.
✽✽
NOTICE
The HAC does not operate when the transaxle shift lever is in the P (Park)
or N (Neutral) position.
The HAC activates even though the ESC is off but it does not activate
when the ESC has malfunctioned.
Emergency Stop Signal (ESS) The Emergency Stop Signal system
alerts the driver behind by blinking the
stop light when the vehicle is braked rap-
idly and severely.
The system is activated when:
The vehicle suddenly stops (vehiclespeed is over 55km/h and the vehicle
deceleration at greater than 7 m/s 2
)
The ABS is activating
When the vehicle speed is under 40 km/h
and the ABS deactivates or the sudden
stop situation is over, the stop light blink-
ing will stop. Instead, the hazard warning
flasher will turn on automatically.
The hazard warning flasher will turn off
when vehicle speed is over 10km/h after
the vehicle has stopped. Also, it will turn
off when the vehicle is driven at low
speed for some time. You can turn it off
manually by pushing the hazard warning
flasher switch.
WARNING
The HAC is activated only for about
1~2 seconds, so when the vehicle
is starting off always depress theaccelerator pedal.
CAUTION
The Emergency Stop Signal (ESS) system will not work if the hazard
warning flasher is already on.
