HILL D ESCENT C ONTROL SWITCH (if so equipped)
The hill descent control system is designed to reduce driver workload
when going down steep hills. The hill descent control system helps to
control vehicle speed so the driver can concentrate on steering the
vehicle.
To activate the hill descent control system:
 The automatic transmission selector lever must be in forward or
reverse gear,
 The 4WD switch must be in the 4L position and the vehicle speed must be under
15 MPH (25 km/h), or
 The 4WD switch must be in the 4H position and the vehicle speed must be under
21 MPH (35 km/h), and
 The hill descent control system switch must be on.
The hill descent control indicator light will come on when the system is activated. Also,
the stop/tail lights illuminate while the hill descent control system applies the brakes to
control vehicle speed. To turn off the hill descent control system, push the switch to the
off position. The hill descent control system is temporarily disabled when the brake or
accelerator pedal is depressed.
Refer to your Owner’s Manual for detailed information.
HILL S TART A SSIST (HSA) (
if so equipped)
The hill start assist system automatically keeps the brakes applied to help prevent the

and apply the accelerator when the vehicle is stopped on a hill.
HSA will operate automatically under the following conditions:
 The selector lever 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.
E-LOCK SWITCH (if so equipped)
The Electronic Locking Rear Differential (E-Lock) system can help
provide added traction if the vehicle is stuck or becoming stuck.
To activate the E-Lock system:
 The 4WD switch must be in the 4LO position (4-wheel drive
vehicles),
 The vehicle must be stopped or moving at 4 MPH (7 km/h) or less,
and
 The E-Lock system switch must be turned on.
Once the vehicle is moving or under way, the system should be turned off.
