HILL DESCENT CONTROL (HDC) SYSTEM (if so equipped)
The HDC system is designed to apply the brakes to help control the speed of the vehicle
and reduce the workload of the driver while descending steep hills. To activate the system:

The AWD Lock switch 1 must be on.

The Hill Descent Control system switch 2
must be on. To deactivate the Hill Descent
Control system, push the switch
2 to the
off position.

The shift lever must be in a forward or reverse gear.

The Hill Descent Control system operates at speeds of 15 mph (25 km/h) and below.
For more information, refer to the “Starting and driving (section 5)” of your Owner’s Manual.
HILL START ASSIST (HSA) SYSTEM
The HSA system allows time for the driver to release the brake pedal and apply the
accelerator when the vehicle is parked on a hill. The brakes are applied automatically for 2
seconds after the driver releases the brake pedal.

The Hill Start Assist system will operate automatically under these conditions:
• The shift lever is shifted into a forward or a reverse gear.
• The vehicle is stopped completely on a hill by applying the brake.

The Hill Start Assist system will not operate when the shift lever is in the N (Neutral ) or
P (Park ) position or on a flat and level road.
For more information, refer to the “Starting and driving (section 5)” of your Owner’s Manual.
