HINTS ON DRIVING WITH ANTI-
LOCK BRAKES
Note: When the system is operating, the
brake pedal will pulse and may travel further.
Maintain pressure on the brake pedal. You
may also hear a noise from the system. This
is normal.
The anti-lock braking system will not
eliminate the risks when:
• you drive too closely to the vehicle in
front of you
• your vehicle is hydroplaning
• you take corners too fast
• the road surface is poor.
HILL START ASSIST
The system makes it easier for you to pull
away when your vehicle is on a slope
without the need to use the parking brake.
When the system is active, your vehicle will
remain stationary on the slope for two to
three seconds after you release the brake
pedal. This allows you time to move your
foot from the brake pedal to the accelerator
pedal. The brakes are released
automatically once the engine has
developed sufficient drive to prevent your
vehicle from rolling down the slope.
Using Hill Start Assist
1. Press the brake pedal to bring your
vehicle to a complete standstill and
keep your foot on the brake pedal.
Note: Your vehicle will remain on the slope
without rolling away for approximately two
to three seconds.
2. Move your foot from the brake to the
accelerator pedal.
3. Drive off in the normal manner.
ACTIVE CITY STOP
General Information
A sensor is mounted behind the interior rear
view mirror. It continuously monitors
conditions to decide when to intervene.
The system is designed to help you reduce
low speed collisions into the rear of another
vehicle. It will also help you reduce the
impact damage or potentially avoid the
collision completely.
The system operates at speeds below
approximately 19 mph (30 km/h) by
applying the brakes when the sensor
detects that a collision is likely.
You must depress the brake pedal to obtain
full braking force.
When the system is braking or has
automatically applied the brakes, a
message will be shown in the information
display.
Using Active City Stop
Switching the System Off and On
Note: The system is on by default.
Note: In certain situations, it is advisable to
disable the system, for example driving off
road when objects may cover the windshield.
You can switch the system off and on using
the information display.
