03 Your driving environmentHill Descent Control (HDC) 03
114 Introduction
Normally, when the accelerator pedal is
released while driving down hills, the vehicle\fs
speed slows as the engine runs at lower rpm
(the normal engine braking effect). However, if
the downhill gradient becomes steeper and if
the vehicle is carrying a load, speed increases
despite the engine braking effect. In this situa-
tion, the brakes must be applied to reduce the
vehicle\fs speed.
HDC is a type of automatic engine brake and
makes it possible to increase or decrease the
vehicle\fs speed on downhill gradients using
only the accelerator pedal, without applying
the brakes. The brake system functions auto-
matically to maintain a low and steady speed.
HDC is particularly useful when driving down
steep hills with rough surfaces, and where the
road may have slippery patches.
WARNING
HDC does not function in all situations, and
is a supplementary braking aid. The driver
has full responsibility for driving in a safe
manner. Function
\b
HDC can be switched on and off with the
button in the center console. An indicator
light in the button illuminates when HDC is
activated.
\b The indicator light in the instru-
ment panel illuminates and a message is
displayed when the system is controlling
the vehicle\fs speed.
\b HDC only functions when
first or reverse
gears are selected (1 will be shown in the
instrument panel display when first gear is
selected).
NOTE HDC cannot be activated if the gear selector
is the D position. Using HDC
HDC allows the car to roll forward at a maxi-
mum speed of 6 mph (10 km/h), and 4 mph
(7 km/h) in reverse. However, the accelerator
pedal can be used to select any speed that is
possible in first or reverse gears. When the
accelerator pedal is released, speed is quickly
reduced again to 6 mph (10 km/h) or 4 mph
(7 km/h), depending on the gear selected,
regardless of the hill\fs gradient. It is not nec-
essary to apply the brakes.
\b
The brake lights illuminate automatically
when HDC is controlling the vehicle\fs
speed.
\b The driver can slow or stop the vehicle at
any time by applying the brakes.
HDC is deactivated when:
\b The button on the center console is
pressed
\b A gear higher than first gear is selected
\b D is selected on vehicles with an automatic
transmission
HDC can be deactivated at any time. If this is
done while driving down a steep hill, the sys-
tem\fs braking effect will decrease gradually. G031964

\b The electric parking brake will be
released immediately when the acceler-
ator pedal is pressed and the gear selec-
tor is in position
D or P. 2. Fasten the seat belt
3.
Move the gear selector to position D or R
and press the accelerator pedal. The park-
ing brake will release when the vehicle
begins to move.
Heavy load uphillA heavy load, such as a trailer, can cause the
vehicle to roll backward when the parking
brake is released automatically on a steep
incline. To help avoid this:
1. Keep the electric parking brake lever pushed in with the left hand while shifting
into Drive with the right.
2. While pressing the throttle pedal to pull away, release the parking brake lever only
after the vehicle begins to move.

Introduction
The audio system is available in two versions:
High Performance and Premium Sound. The
system version is shown in the display when
the audio system is switched on.
If the audio system is on when the ignition is
switched off, it will come on automatically the
next time the ignition is put in mode
I or higher.
The audio system can be operated without a
key in the ignition slot for 15 minutes at a time
by pressing the POWER button (the driver\fs
door must be closed on vehicles with the
optional keyless drive).
Some functions are controlled from the menu
system in the center console. For more infor-
mation on menus, see page 122.

at a time if the remote key is not inserted in the
ignition slot.
NOTE To prevent unnecessary drain on the vehi-
cle\fs battery, remove the remote key from
the ignition slot if the audio system is used
when the engine is not running.
If the audio system is playing when the engine
is switched off, it will be on when the engine is

able through the audio system controls on cen-
ter console.
USB/iPod connector
An iPod or MP3 player can be connected to the
audio system via the AUX or USB sockets in the
center storage compartment
An auxiliary device, such as an iPod, MP3
player or a USB flash drive can be connected
to the audio system via the sockets in the cen-
ter console storage compartment. A standard
cable from an iPod or MP3 player can be
routed under the cover to the AUX connector
in the storage compartment.
The USB socket provides current to or charges
the device connected (depending on the
device). A sound source must be chosen, depending on
the device that has been connected:
1.
Use MODE to select iPod or USB. The text
CONNECT DEVICE will be displayed.
2. Connect the device to the connector in the
center console storage compartment.
The text LOADING will be displayed while the
system loads the files (folder structure) on the
device. This may take a short time.
When information about the files (the folder
structure) on the device has been loaded, the
resulting list includes information on the artist,
genre and song title if this information is
included on the device.
To navigate in the folder structure, press
ENTER and scroll up and down the folders
using the arrow buttons (on the audio system
control panel or on the steering wheel keypad).
Press the right arrow button to select a folder.
Press the left arrow button to go up a level in
the folder structure. Press ENTER to go down
a level in the folder structure.
Tracks can be selected in two ways:
\b Turn the Tuning knob clockwise or coun-
terclockwise
\b Use the right or left arrow keys on the nav-
igation control to select the desired track. The arrow keys on the steering wheel key-
pad can also be used in the same way.
NOTE The system supports playback of files in the
most common versions of formats such as
mp3, wma, and wav. However, there may be
versions of these formats that the system
does not support.
The system also supports a number of
iPod® models produced in 2005 or later.
iPod® Shuffle is not supported.
USB flash driveTo simplify the use of a USB flash drive, it is
advisable to only store music files on the drive.
It will take considerably longer for the system
to index the files on the drive if it contains any-
thing other than compatible music files.
NOTE
The system supports removable media that
uses the USB 2.0 standard and the FAT32
file system and can index up to 500 folders
and a maximum of 64,000 files. The device
must have at least 256 Mb of memory.

that is not supported by the vehicle\fs audio
system. In order to use an mp3 player, the sys- G031959

Introduction Display when the radio is receiving an HD Radio
broadcast
Digital HD Radio broadcasts are available in
many areas of the United States. HD Radio
reception is available for both AM and FM
wavebands and provides improved sound
quality. Certain FM frequencies also offer
greater listening choices through “multicast-
ing” (sub-channels) on a given frequency.
When you have tuned to an HD Radio station,
the
symbol will appear in the lower left
corner of the audio system display. However, radio reception will remain analog (“normal”
reception) if you are not within digital range of
a station\fs transmitter. Digital range is slightly
shorter than the station\fs total range. When you
are within digital range of the transmitter, the
radio will automatically switch from analog to
digital reception and ">" will appear to the right
of the station\fs name (see the illustration).
Sound quality improves and in certain cases,
there may be more than one station available
on the same frequency (sub-channels).
NOTE
There will be a slight delay in analog recep-
tion before the radio switches over to digital.
When listening to a main HD Radio station,
digital reception will continue until you have
driven out of range of the digital transmitter.
The radio will then return to analog reception
and will continue to receive programming on
the selected frequency until you have driven
completely out of range of that particular sta-
tion.
