Hill-Start Assist Control (Hac); Tires And Wheels - Hyundai 2016 Azera Owner's Manual

• Your vehicle is designed to activate
according to the driver's intention,
even with the VSM installed.
Always follow all the normal pre-
cautions for driving at safe speeds
for the conditions – including driv-
ing in inclement weather and on a
slippery road.
WARNING
-
Tire/wheel
sizes
When replacing tires
wheels, make sure they are the
same size as the original tires
and wheels installed. Driving
with varying tire or wheel sizes
may diminish any supplemental
safety benefits of the VSM sys-
tem.

Hill-start assist control (HAC)

The main intent is to help prevent the
vehicle from rolling backwards while
driving uphill on an inclined surface.
HAC holds the braking pressure built
up by the driver when the vehicle is
stopped for 2 seconds after releasing
the brake pedal.
During the pressure-hold period, the
driver has enough time to depress
the accelerator pedal to drive off.
The braking pressure is reduced as
and
soon as the system detects the dri-
ver's intention to drive off.
WARNING
Drivers should pay close atten-
tion when activating the HAC.
The vehicle may roll backward
causing an accident due to
insufficient brake hold pressure,
causing injury or death.
• 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 ESC is off but it does not acti-
vate when the ESC has malfunc-
tioned.
