WHAT IS HILL START ASSIST
Hill Start Assist makes it easier for you to
pull away when your vehicle is on a slope
without using the parking brake.
HOW DOES HILL START
ASSIST WORK
When the system activates, your vehicle
remains stationary for a few seconds after
you release the brake pedal. This gives you
time to move your foot from the brake
pedal to the accelerator pedal. The brakes
release when you apply the accelerator
pedal and the vehicle begins to move
forward, or the vehicle is stationary beyond
the Hill Start Assist hold time.
The system activates when your vehicle is
in any forward gear and facing uphill, or
when your vehicle is in reverse (R) and
facing downhill.
