WHAT IS HILL DESCENT
CONTROL
Hill descent control allows the driver to setand maintain vehicle speed whiledescending steep slopes in various surfaceconditions.
HOW DOES HILL DESCENT
CONTROL WORK
Hill descent control can maintain vehiclespeeds on downhill slopes between2–20 mph (3–32 km/h). Above 20 mph(32 km/h), the system remains on but thedescent speed cannot be set ormaintained.
Note:The system does not function below2 mph (3 km/h).
The system requires a cool down intervalafter a period of sustained use. Hill descentcontrol provides a warning in the messagecenter and a tone sounds when the systemis about to disengage for cooling. At thistime, manually apply the brakes as neededto maintain descent speed.
Note:The amount of time that the systemcan remain active before cooling varies withconditions.

WHAT IS PRE-COLLISION
ASSIST
Pre-collision assist detects and warns ofapproaching hazards in the roadway. Ifyour vehicle is rapidly approaching anotherstationary vehicle, a vehicle traveling in thesame direction as yours, or a pedestrianwithin your driving path, the systemprovides multiple levels of assistance tohelp avoid a collision.
HOW DOES PRE-COLLISION
ASSIST WORK
The system warns the driver of potentialhazards by providing three levels ofassistance.
If your vehicle is rapidly approachingpotential hazards the system provides thefollowing levels of functionality:
1.Alert.
2.Brake Support.
3.Automatic Emergency Braking.
Alert: When active, a flashingvisual warning appears and anaudible warning tone sounds.
Brake Support: The system is designedto help reduce the impact speed bypreparing the brakes for rapid braking. Thesystem does not automatically apply thebrakes. If you press the brake pedal, thesystem could apply additional braking upto maximum braking force, even if youlightly press the brake pedal.
Automatic Emergency Braking:Automatic emergency braking mayactivate if the system determines that acollision is imminent.
Note:If you perceive pre-collision assistalerts as being too frequent or disturbing,then you can reduce the alert sensitivity,although the manufacturer recommendsusing the highest sensitivity setting wherepossible. Setting lower sensitivity wouldlead to fewer and later system warnings.
Each system has various levels ofdetection capabilities. See Pre-CollisionAssist Limitations (page 263).
