SAFETY 137
(Continued)
Disabling And Enabling HSA
This feature can be turned on or turned off. To
change the current setting, refer to “Uconnect
Settings” in “Multimedia” for further
information.
Towing With HSA
HSA will also provide assistance to mitigate roll
back while towing a trailer.
Rain Brake Support (RBS)
Rain Brake Support (RBS) may improve braking
performance in wet conditions. It will period-
ically apply a small amount of brake pressure to
r
em
ove any water buildup on the front brake
rotors. It functions when the windshield wipers
are in LO or HI speed. 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 released by
the driver. The Electronic Brake Control will
prepare the brake system for a panic stop.
Selec - Speed Control (SSC) — If Equipped
Selec - Speed Control (SSC) is intended for
off-road driving in 4L Range only. SSC maintains
vehicle speed by actively controlling engine
torque and brakes.
SSC has three states:
1. Off (feature is not enabled and will not
ac
tivate)
2. Enabled (feature is enabled and ready but
ac
tivation conditions are not met, or driver
is actively overriding with brake or throttle
application)
3. Active (feature is enabled and actively
co
ntrolling vehicle speed)
Enabling SSC
SSC is enabled by pushing the SSC switch, but
t
he
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.
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 activate the 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.
