Hill-start assist control (HAC)
A vehicle has the tendency to slide
backwards on a steep slope, when the
driver begins to accelerate after a
stop. The HAC prevents the vehicle
from sliding backwards by automati-
cally operating the brake systems for
about 2 seconds. The brake systems
are automatically released, when the
accelerator pedal is depressed or after
about 2 seconds.
Information
• The HAC does not operate when the
shift lever
is in P(Park) or
N(Neutral).
• The HAC activates, even when the
ESC is OFF. However, it does not
activate, when the ESC malfunc-
tions.
Good braking practices
• Make sure the parking brake is
released and that the parking
brake indicator goes OFF before
driving.
• Driving through water may get the
brakes wet. The brakes may also
get wet after washing the vehicle.
Wet brakes can be dangerous!
Your vehicle may not quickly stop,
when the brakes are wet. Wet
brakes may cause the vehicle to
slide to one side.
To dry the brake, lightly depress
the brake pedal until the braking
operation returns to normal, taking
care to keep the vehicle under con-
trol at all times. When the braking
operation does not return to nor-
mal, immediately and safely stop
the vehicle and call an authorized
EQUUS dealer for assistance.

Driving your vehicle
The HAC is activated only for
about 2 seconds, so always
depress the accelerator pedal
to begin driving upwards after a
stop.
WARNING
• Whenever parking or leaving
the vehicle, always securely
set the parking brake and
locate the vehicle's shift lever
in P(Park). A vehicle, of which
the shift lever is not in P(Park)
with the parking brake set ON,
is at risk of inadvertently mov-
ing and injuring you or others.
• All vehicles should always set
the parking brake, when park-
ing,
to avoid inadvertent
movement, which may injure
occupants or pedestrians.
