• If you use a trailer brake controller with your

trailer, your trailer brakes may be activated and

deactivated with the brake switch. If so, when the

brake pedal is released there may not be enough

brake pressure to hold the vehicle and trailer on a

hill and this could cause a collision with another

vehicle or object behind you. In order to avoid

rolling down the hill while resuming acceleration,

manually activate the trailer brake prior to releas-

ing the brake pedal. Always remember the driver is

responsible for braking the vehicle.

• HSA is not a parking brake. Always apply the

parking brake fully when leaving your vehicle.

Also, be certain to leave the transmission in PARK.

• Failure to follow these warnings may cause the

vehicle to roll down the incline and could collide

with another vehicle, object or person, and cause

serious or fatal injury. Always remember to use the

parking brake while parking on a hill and that the

driver is responsible for braking the vehicle.

NOTE: The HSA system may also be turned on and off if

the vehicle is equipped with the Electronic Vehicle Infor-

mation Center (EVIC). Refer to "Electronic Vehicle Infor-

mation Center (EVIC)" in "Understanding Your Instru-

ment Panel" for further information.
