WARNING:
. Never rely solely on the hill start assist
system to prevent the vehicle from mov-
ing backward on a hill. Always drive
carefully and attentively. Depress the
brake pedal when the vehicle is stopped
on a steep hill. Be especially careful when
stopped on a hill on frozen or muddy
roads. Failure to prevent the vehicle from
rolling backwards may result in a loss of
control of the vehicle and possible ser-
ious injury or death.
. The hill start assist system is not de-
signed to hold the vehicle at a standstill
on a hill. Depress the brake pedal when
the vehicle is stopped on a steep hill.
Failure to do so may cause the vehicle to
roll backwards and may result in a colli-
sion or serious personal injury.
. The hill start assist system may not
prevent the vehicle from rolling back-
wards on a hill under all load or road
conditions. Always be prepared to de-
press the brake pedal to prevent the
vehicle from rolling backwards. Failure
to do so may result in a collision or
serious personal injury.
The hill start assist system automatically keeps
the brakes applied to help prevent the vehicle
from rolling backwards in the time it takes the
driver to release the brake pedal and apply the
accelerator when the vehicle is stopped on a
hill.
The hill start assist system will operate auto-
matically under the following conditions:
. The transmission is shifted to a forward or
reverse gear.
. The vehicle is stopped completely on a hill
by applying the brake.
The maximum holding time is 2 seconds. After
2 seconds the vehicle will begin to roll back and
the hill start assist system will stop operating
completely.
The hill start assist system will not operate
when the transmission is shifted to the “N”
(Neutral) or “P” (Park) position or on a flat and
level road.
When the Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC)/
Electronic Stability Program (ESP) warning light
illuminates in the meter, the hill start assist
system will not operate. (See “Vehicle Dynamic
Control (VDC) warning light/Electronic Stability
Program (ESP) warning light” (P.2-17).)

WARNING:
. Never rely solely on the hill descent
control system to control vehicle speed
when driving on steep downhill grades.
Always drive carefully when using the hill
descent control system and decelerate
the vehicle speed by depressing the
brake pedal if necessary. Be especially
careful when driving on frozen, muddy or
extremely steep downhill roads. Failure
to control vehicle speed may result in a
loss of control of the vehicle and possible
serious injury or death.
. The hill descent control system may not
control the vehicle speed on a hill under
all load or road conditions. Always be
prepared to depress the brake pedal to
control vehicle speed. Failure to do so
may result in a collision or serious perso-
nal injury.
CAUTION:
When the hill descent control system oper-
ates continuously for a long time, the tem-
perature of the Vehicle Dynamic Control
(VDC)/Electronic Stability Program (ESP) sys-
tem actuator may increase and the hill
descent control system may be temporarily
disabled (the hill descent control system on
indicator light will blink). If the indicator light
does not come on continuously after blink-
ing, stop using the system.
When the hill descent control system is acti-
vated, it automatically applies smooth brakes
to control speed on a steep and slippery
descent or off the road without brake or
accelerator operation.
The hill descent control system helps maintain
