When the system is normal and the ignition key is turned to
"ON", the warning light will come on and will go off after a few
seconds. It is not a malfunction that the warning light may stay
on for 60 seconds after the ignition key is turned to the "ON"
position.

DOWNHILL ASSIST CONTROL
The downhill assist control system is a system that
assists the deceleration of the engine brake when you
drive down a steep hill. When you are driving down a hill
with the four wheel drive control lever in the "L" position,
push the "DAC" switch to limit the vehicle's acceleration.
If the vehicle is traveling at a speed of 25 km/h (15 mph) or
less, you can descend at a constant speed.
Do not rely excessively on the downhill assist control
system. It may not be able to maintain a low speed over
road surfaces or off road surfaces on which sliding can
easily occur, such as extremely steep slopes or icy or
muddy roads.
