The HDC system is overheated or malfunctioning.
If driving on a level road with HDC on and ready for use, HDC
may be applied during sharp cornering or passing over a speed
bump. Therefore, do not activate HDC while driving on normal
roads.
HDC Operating Conditions
• HDC switch ON (green HDC indicator on instrument cluster
comes on)
• Gradient of more than specified value and vehicle speed between
5 and 50 km/h
• ESP (including BAS) not activated
HDC Deactivation Conditions
• HDC switch OFF (green HDC indicator on the instrument cluster
goes off)
• Gradient of less than specified value
• Vehicle speed of below 5 km/h or above 70 km/h
• HDC malfunction
• HDC system overheated
While the HDC is activated, you can drive the vehicle at a speed
between 5 and 30 km/h by depressing the brake pedal
(deceleration) or accelerator pedal (acceleration). If the vehicle
speed is below 5 km/h or above 70 km/h, the HDC is
deactivated.
HDC Operation
If the conditions for activating the HDC are met, HDC is activated
and the green HDC indicator blinks on the instrument cluster. The
HDC is deactivated when the vehicle speed is below 5 km/h or
above 70 km/h or the gradient of the slope becomes gentle while it
is in operation. It is normal that strong vibrations and noise occur
from the brake system when the HDC is in operation.
