Trailer Stability Assist (TSA)
Trailer stability assist is operated as a
vehicle stability control system. The
Trailer stability assist system stabilizes
the vehicle and trailer when the trailer
sways or oscillates. In most cases, trailer
sway happens at high speeds.
Factors that can cause trailer sway
include:
- High speed
- Strong crosswinds
- Improper overloading
- Sudden steering inputs
- Uneven road
When the Trailer stability assist system
detects sway, the front brakes are
applied automatically. If it is not enough
braking, the brakes are applied on all
wheels automatically and vehicle power
is reduced.
Hill-Start Assist Control (HAC)
Hill-Start Assist Control helps prevent
the vehicle from rolling backwards
when starting a vehicle from a stop on
a hill. The system operates the brakes
automatically for about 2 seconds
(maximum of 5 seconds when the
accelerator pedal is slightly depressed
during HAC operation) and releases
the brake after 2 seconds or when the
accelerator pedal is depressed.
WARNING
Always be ready to depress the
accelerator pedal when starting off an
incline. Hill-Start Assist Control activates
only for about 2 seconds (maximum
of 5 seconds when the accelerator
pedal is slightly depressed during HAC
operation).
Information
ś Hill-Start Assist Control does not
operate when the gear is shifted to P
(Park) or N (Neutral).
ś Hill-Start Assist Control activates even
when the ESC (Electronic Stability
Control) is off. However, it does not
activate, when ESC does not operate
normally.
