Hill-Start Assist Control (HAC)
A vehicle has the tendency to slide
backwards on a steep slope, before
depressing the accelerator after a
stop. The HAC prevents the vehicle
from sliding backwards by automati-
cally operating the brake systems for
about 2 seconds. The brake systems
are automatically released, when the
accelerator pedal is depressed.
Information
• The HAC does not operate when the
shift lever is in P (Park) or N (Neutral).
• The HAC activates even when the
ESC (Electronic Stability Control) is
off. However, it does not activate,
when the ESC does not operate nor-
mally.
Emergency Stop Signal (ESS)
(if equipped)
The Emergency Stop Signal system
alerts the driver behind by blinking
the stop lights, while sharply and
severely braking.
The system is activated when:
• The vehicle suddenly stops. (The
deceleration power exceeds 7 m/s
2,
and the driving speed exceeds 55
km/h (34 mph).)
• The ABS is activated.
The hazard warning flasher automat-
ically turns ON after blinking the stop
lights:
• When the driving speed is under
40 km/h (25 mph),
• When the ABS is deactivated, and
• When the sudden braking situation
is over.The hazard warning flasher turns
OFF:
• When the vehicle drives at a low
speed for a certain period of time.
The driver can manually turn OFF
the hazard warning flasher by

tem will not work if the hazard warn-
ing flashers are already on.
