REMINDER: The HAC does not operate when the gear shift is in the P (Park) or the N (Neutral) position  
 • 
 •HAC provides a 2-second delay before the vehicle may start rolling backwards •When HAC is active (e g  , accelerating from a stop on an incline), you may notice that the brakes will momentarily remain engaged after you depress the accelerator
