The brake hold system keeps the brake applied when the shift lever is in
D, N, or S (vehicles without paddle shift switches) or M (vehicles with
paddle shift switches) with the system on and the brake pedal has been
depressed to stop the vehicle. The system releases the brake when the
accelerator pedal is depressed with the shift lever in D, S or M to allow
smooth start off.

(green) comes on. While the system is

operated indicator (yellow) comes on.
