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 automatically for about 2 sec-
onds. The brakes are released when
the accelerator pedal is depressed or
after about 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 ESP is off but it does not acti-
vate when the ESP has malfunc-
tioned.
• The HAC applies only to vehicles with manual transmission.
Good braking practicesWARNING
Never press the ESC OFF but-
ton while ESC is operating.
If the ESC is turned off while
ESC is operating, the vehicle
may go out of control.
To turn ESC off while driving,
press the ESC OFF button
while driving on a flat road sur-
face.WARNING
Whenever leaving vehicle or
parking, always set the park-
ing brake as far as possible
and fully engage the vehicle's
transmission into the park
position. Vehicles not fully
engaged in park with the park-
ing brake set are at risk for
moving inadvertently and
injuring yourself or others.
All vehicles should always have the parking brake fully
engaged when parking to
avoid inadvertent movement
of the car which can injure
occupants or pedestrians.
WARNING
The HAC is activated only for
about 2 seconds, so when the
vehicle is starting off always
depress the accelerator pedal.
