Hill-start assist control (HAC)
(if equipped)
A vehicle has the tendency to roll
back on a steep hill when the driver
begins to accelerate after a stop.The
Hill-start Assist Control (HAC) pre-
vents the vehicle from rolling back by
operating the brakes automatically
for about 1.5 seconds. The brakes
are released when the accelerator
pedal is depressed or after about 1.5
seconds.
✽✽
NOTICE
• The HAC does not operate when
the transaxle shift lever is in the P
(Park) or N (Neutral) position.
• The HAC activates even though
the ESC is off but it does not acti-
vate when the ESC has malfunc-
tioned.
WARNING
• Unnecessary or unwanted
DBC activation may result in
an accident.
• On a very steep hill even
though the brake pedal or
accelerator pedal is depressed
the DBC may not deactivate.
WARNING
The HAC is activated only for
about 1.5 seconds, so always
depress the accelerator pedal to
begin accelerating after a stop.
