For more information on Electronic Stability Control (ESC) and its specific features and operations, please refer to your Owner’s Manual.
Hill-Start Assist Control (HAC)†7
HAC can help to 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 .
REMINDERS:
•
The HAC does not operate when the gear shift is in the P (Park) or the N (Neutral) position
•HAC does not replace the need to apply brakes while the vehicle is stopped on an incline
• 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 – this is normal HAC operation
• HAC provides a 2-second delay before the vehicle may start rolling backwards
