Hold (AVH)
AVH can be turned on by pressing
AVH with the driver safety belt
fastened, the driver door closed,
and the engine running. The AVH
indicator will come on.
This feature will activate when the
vehicle is stopped to prevent it from
moving. After the brake pedal has
been released and before the
accelerator pedal has been pressed,
AVH uses braking pressure to hold
the vehicle stationary. In addition,
the ABS pump motor may activate
to build brake pressure to maintain
the vehicle at a standstill if
necessary.
If AVH is holding the vehicle, the
AVH indicator will change to green.
Once AVH is active it will hold the
vehicle for a defined time period
then engage the parking brake.
While AVH is holding the vehicle,
the parking brake will engage if the
driver door is opened or the driver
safety belt is unfastened.

StabiliTrak activates when the
vehicle senses a difference between

the vehicle is actually traveling.
StabiliTrak selectively applies
braking pressure to any one of the
