Hill start assist
This system keeps the vehicle briey stationary
(for approximately 2 seconds) when making a hill
start, while you transfer your foot from the brake
pedal to the accelerator pedal.
The system is only active when:
– The vehicle is completely stationary, with your
foot on the brake pedal.
– Certain slope conditions are met.
– The driver’s door is closed.
Do not leave the vehicle while it is being
held temporarily by hill start assist.
If someone needs to get out of the vehicle
with the engine running, apply the parking
brake manually. Then check that the parking
brake indicator lamp and the P indicator lamp
in the electric parking brake control are on
xed.
The hill start assist function cannot be
deactivated. However, using the parking
brake to immobilise the vehicle interrupts its
operation.
Operation
Facing uphill, with the vehicle stationary,
the vehicle is held for a short time when the
driver releases the brake pedal:
– If rst gear or neutral is engaged on a manual
gearbox.
– If mode D or M is selected on an automatic
gearbox.
– If mode D or B is selected on the drive
selector.
Facing downhill, with the vehicle stationary
and reverse gear engaged, the vehicle is held
for a short time when the driver releases the
brake pedal.
