Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
The ESC system is designed to help stabilize the
vehicle during cornering maneuvers It is a good
idea to keep the ESC turned on for daily driving
whenever possible
Press ESC button A to turn ESC OFF/ON
REMINDER: ESC is turned ON at vehicle start-up
REMINDER: The ESC Indicator Light in the instrument cluster will be lit momentarily whenever the ESC is active
Hill-Start Assist Control (HAC)
HAC helps prevent the vehicle from rolling
backwards when accelerating from a stop
while on a steep incline
The HAC automatically activates whether
the ESC is OFF or ON but does NOT activate
when the ESC has malfunctioned
REMINDER: The HAC does not operate when the gear shift is in the P (Park) or the N (Neutral) position
• When HAC is active (e g , during initial acceleration from a stop on an incline), you may notice that the brakes will momentarily remain engaged after you depress the accelerator
• HAC provides a 2-second delay before the vehicle may start rolling backwards
QUICK TIPS
Blind Spot Detection
(BS D) System*
The system uses a radar sensor to help
alert the driver while driving The BSD
indicator on the button B will illuminate
when turned ON
The system will become active when
the vehicle is traveling more than 19
mph and will alert the driver when
another vehicle is detected by the
radar sensor
1st stage alert: When another vehicle
is detected within the BSD System
boundary, a yellow light will illuminate on
the outside rearview mirrors
2nd stage alert: When 1st stage alert
is on and a turn signal is turned on, the
2nd-stage alert will sound
