press the OK button to confirm
the setting. If Off is selected, the
HLA is switched off and cannot
be activated either automatically
or manually.

the menu. To return to the trip
computer display directly, hold the
left arrow button pressed.

activation mode, only use the HLA
when pulling away uphill on gradients
greater than 3%. If the vehicle is on
the flat or on a downhill slope, an
active HLA will make it difficult to pull
away smoothly.
Activating the HLA
WARNINGS
You must remain in the vehicle
once you have activated the
HLA. Any attempt to leave the vehicle
will deactivate the HLA automatically.
The HLA is active only if the
message
Hill Launch Assist
active is displayed in the information
display. During all times you are
responsible for controlling the vehicle,
supervising the HLA and intervening,
if required.
You can activate the HLA only if the
following conditions have been met:
• The engine is running.
• The HLA is switched on
(automatic or manual mode).
• The parking brake or electric
parking brake is fully disengaged.
• On vehicles with manual
transmission, the clutch pedal is
pressed.
• No failure mode is present.
To activate the HLA in automatic
mode:
1. Press the brake pedal to bring the
vehicle to a complete standstill.
Keep the brake pedal depressed.
2. If the sensors detect that the
vehicle is on a slope and the right
driving direction is selected (first
gear if the vehicle is pointing uphill,
reverse gear if the vehicle is
pointing downhill), the HLA will be
activated automatically.
Hill
Launch Assist active will
appear in the display.
3. When you remove your foot from
the brake pedal, the vehicle will
remain on the slope without rolling
away for approximately two to
three seconds.
4. Pull away using the accelerator
and clutch pedal. The brakes will
be released automatically.
To activate the HLA in manual mode:
1. Press the brake pedal to bring the
vehicle to a complete standstill.
Keep the brake pedal depressed.
