WARNING!
If you use a trailer brake controller with
your trailer, the trailer brakes may be
activated and deactivated with the brake
switch. If so, there may not be enough
brake pressure to hold both the vehicle
and the trailer on a hill when the brake
pedal is released. In order to avoid
rolling down an incline while resuming
acceleration,
manually
trailer brake or apply more vehicle brake
pressure prior to releasing the brake
pedal.
HSA is not a parking brake. Always apply
the parking brake fully when exiting your
vehicle. Also, be certain to place the
transmission in PARK.
Failure to follow these warnings can
result in a collision or serious personal
injury.
Rain Brake Support (RBS)
Rain Brake Support (RBS) may improve
braking performance 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.
78
When RBS is active, there is no notification
to the driver and no driver interaction is
required.
Ready Alert Braking (RAB)
Ready Alert Braking (RAB) may reduce the
time required to reach full braking during
emergency braking situations. It anticipates
when an emergency braking situation may
occur by monitoring how fast the throttle is
activate
the
released by the driver. The Electronic Brake
Control (EBC) system will prepare the brake
system for a panic stop.
Selec - Speed Control (SSC) — If Equipped
SSC is intended for off road driving in 4L
Range only. SSC maintains vehicle speed by
actively
controlling
brakes.
SSC has three states:
1. Off (feature is not enabled and will not
activate)
2. Enabled (feature is enabled and ready
but activation conditions are not met, or
driver is actively overriding with brake or
throttle application)
3. Active (feature is enabled and actively
controlling vehicle speed)
Enabling SSC
SSC is enabled by pushing the SSC switch,
but the following conditions must also be
met to enable SSC:
The driveline is in 4L Range.
The vehicle speed is below 5 mph (8 km/h).
The park brake is released.
The driver door is closed.
The driver is not applying throttle.
Activating SSC
Once SSC is enabled it will activate automat-
engine
torque
and
ically once the following conditions are met:
The driver releases the throttle.
The driver releases the brake.
The transmission is in any selection other
than P.
Your vehicle speed is below 20 mph
(32 km/h).
