Hill descent control switch (if so equipped)
WARNING
|
CAUTION When the hill descent control system operates continuously for a long time, the temperature of the brake pads may increase and the hill descent control system may be temporarily disabled (the indicator light will blink). If the indicator light does not come on continuously after blinking, stop using the system. |
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 vehicle speed must be kept below 15 MPH (25 km/h).
The hill descent control indicator light will come on when the system is activated. Also, the stop/tail lights illuminate while the hill descent control system applies the brakes to control vehicle speed.
If the accelerator or brake pedal is depressed while the hill descent control system is on, the system will stop operating temporarily. As soon as the accelerator or brake pedal is released, the hill descent control system begins to function again if the hill descent control operating conditions are fulfilled.
The hill descent control indicator light blinks if the switch is on and all conditions for system activation are not met or if the system becomes disengaged for any reason.
To turn off the hill descent control system, push the switch to the OFF position.
For additional information, refer to “Hill descent control system on indicator light” in this section and “Hill descent control system” in the “Starting and driving” section of this manual.
