the engine speed drops too low.
Hilly Condition Usage
You should select a lower gear position
when the system is active in situations such

The system needs additional engine braking
in these situations to reduce the load on the
vehicles regular brake system to prevent
them from overheating.

brakes to cool down. The system functions

WARNING
On rare occasions, detection issues

and safety barriers. In these cases, the
system may brake late or unexpectedly. At
all times, you are responsible for controlling
your vehicle, supervising the system and
intervening, if required.
