hill descent control 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

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.
