WARNING! (Continued)
• HSA is not a parking brake. Always apply
the parking brake fully when exiting your
vehicle. Also, be certain to place the trans-
mission in PARK.
• Failure to follow these warnings can result
in a collision or serious personal injury.
Disabling And Enabling HSA
This feature can be turned on or turned off. To
change the current setting, proceed as follows:
• If disabling HSA using your instrument cluster
display, refer to "Instrument Cluster Display"
in "Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel"
for further information.
• If disabling HSA using Uconnect Settings,
refer to "Uconnect Settings" in "Multimedia"
for further information.
For vehicles not equipped with an instrument
cluster display, perform the following steps:
1. Center the steering wheel (front wheels
pointing straight forward).
2. Shift the transmission into PARK.
3. Apply the parking brake.
4. Start the engine.
5. Rotate the steering wheel slightly more than
one-half turn to the left.
6. Push the "ESC Off" button located in the
lower switch bank below the climate control
four times within 20 seconds. The "ESC Off
Indicator Light" should turn on and turn off
two times.
7. Rotate the steering wheel back to center and
then an additional slightly more than one-half
turn to the right.
8. Turn the ignition to the OFF mode and then
back to ON. If the sequence was completed
properly, the "ESC Off Indicator Light" will
blink several times to confirm HSA is dis-
abled.
9. Repeat these steps if you want to return this
feature to its previous setting.
Rain Brake Support (RBS)
Rain Brake Support may improve braking per-
formance in wet conditions. It will periodically
apply a small amount of brake pressure to
remove any water buildup on the front brake
rotors. It functions when the windshield wipers
are in LO or HI speed. When Rain Brake Sup-
port is active, there is no notification to the driver
and no driver interaction is required.
Ready Alert Braking (RAB)
Ready Alert Braking may reduce the time re-
quired to reach full braking during emergency
braking situations. It anticipates when an emer-
gency braking situation may occur by monitoring
how fast the throttle is released by the driver.
The EBC will prepare the brake system for a
panic stop.
Traction Control System (TCS)
This system monitors the amount of wheel spin
of each of the driven wheels. If wheel spin is
detected, the TCS may apply brake pressure to
the spinning wheel(s) and/or reduce engine
power to provide enhanced acceleration and
stability. A feature of the TCS, Brake Limited
Differential (BLD), functions similar to a limited
slip differential and controls the wheel spin
across a driven axle. If one wheel on a driven
axle is spinning faster than the other, the system
will apply the brake of the spinning wheel. This
will allow more engine power to be applied to the
wheel that is not spinning. BLD may remain
enabled even if TCS and ESC are in a reduced
mode.
