5. Driving Guide
5.2.6 Hill Hold Control (HHC) *
HHC
allows the driver to easily move his/her
foot from the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal
when starting on slopes without using the parking
brake to avoid sliding accidents.
Activation Conditions for HAC
• HHC function is activated to apply brake
pressure to the vehicle for 1s, if the driver
releases the brake pedal in following
conditions: ramp slope of more than 4%, shift
lever not at "P" or "N" position, EPB not
applied, brake pedal depressed to stop the
vehicle and keep it in static state.
• During the working of HHC, when the engine
torque exceeds the vehicle resistance torque,
the brake pressure will be released to finish
starting smoothly.
• HHC also works when the vehicle goes
downhill and the shift lever is switched to “R”
position.
Hint
• The HHC will apply a brakeforce
automatically when starting on a steep
uphill or shifting to reverse gear on
downhill, to prevent slipping.
• HHC is integrated on the ESP system. If the
HHC fails, the ESP indicator light is
illuminated and the relevant hints are
displayed on the instrument cluster
display.
