Start assistance HSAThe foot brake can also be released on an uphill
gradient to start the engine automatically - the
HSA function means that the car does not roll
backwards.
HSA (Hill Start Assist) means that the pressure
in the brake system remains temporarily avail-
able while the driver moves his/her foot from
the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal for
driving off with the engine having stopped
automatically. The temporary braking effect
releases after a couple of seconds or when the
driver accelerates.
There is more information available on HSA on
page 120.
Gear indicator1
An essential detail in connection with environ-
mental driving is to drive in the right gear and
change gear in time.
The driver is assisted by an indicator which
notifies the driver when it is most advanta-
geous to engage the next higher or lower gear
- GSI (Gear Shift Indicator).
Indication is made with an up or down arrow in
the combined instrument panel's right-hand
display.
Deactivating the Start/Stop functionIn certain situations, it may
advisable to temporarily
switch off the automatic
Start/Stop function - this is
carried out by pressing this
button once, at which point
the button's lamp goes out.
Disengaged Start/Stop func-
tion is indicated by the infor-
mation display's symbol
going out and the message
Auto Start-Stop OFF being
displayed for
about 5 seconds - while the
button's lamp goes out at the
same time.
The Start/Stop function is disengaged until it is
reactivated with the button or until the next
time the engine is started with the key.
