Hill-start assist control

If the engine is stopped by the Stop & Start system when the vehicle is
on an incline, brake force is temporarily maintained to prevent rolling
backwards until the engine is restarted and drive force is generated.
When drive force is generated, the maintained brake force is automat-
ically canceled.
● This function operates on flat surfaces as well as steep incline.
● Sound may be generated by the brakes, but this is not a malfunc-
tion.
● The brake pedal response may change and vibration may occur,
but these are not malfunctions.
