Brake Assist
If the brake pedal is pressed quickly

is automatically applied (full
braking).
Maintain steady pressure on the
brake pedal for as long as full
braking is required. Maximum brake
force is automatically reduced when
the brake pedal is released.
Hill Start Assist (HSA)
The system helps prevent
unintended movement when driving
away on inclines.
When releasing the foot brake after
stopping on an incline, the brakes
remain on for a further two seconds.
The brakes release automatically as
soon as the vehicle begins to
accelerate.
