Hill-Start Assist helps to prevent the vehicle
from rolling back when starting up again from
a stopped position on an incline. As the driver
release the brake pedal slowly, vehicle retains
the brake force for about 2 seconds before
accelerates to continue driving.
Hill-Start Assist operates under this
condition:
• Engine is operated.
• The shift lever is in forward range on uphill
slope, or in reverse on downhill slope.
Hill-Start Assist is not operated if the shift
lever is in P or N.
• Brake pedal is pressed firmly and vehicle
has completely stops.
• Parking brake is released.
• Slip indicator light is turned "OFF".
