HSA Activation Criteria
The following criteria must be met in order for HSA to
activate:
Vehicle must be stopped.
Vehicle must be on a 2–7% approximate grade (de-
pending on equipped transmission).
Gear selection matches vehicle direction (i.e., vehicle
facing uphill is in forward gear; vehicle backing uphill
is in REVERSE gear).
HSA will work in all forward gears, reverse and neutral
(if equipped with a manual transmission) when the
activation criteria have been met. The system will not
activate if the vehicle is placed in NEUTRAL or PARK.
WARNING!
There may be situations on minor hills (i.e., less than
7%), with a loaded vehicle, or while pulling a trailer,
when the system will not activate and slight rolling
may occur. This could cause a collision with another
vehicle or object. Always remember the driver is
responsible for braking the vehicle.
