SAFETY 299
The ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light (located in
the instrument cluster) starts to flash as soon as the tires
lose traction and the ESC system becomes active. The ESC
Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light also flashes when
TCS is active. If the ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator
Light begins to flash during acceleration, ease up on the
accelerator and apply as little throttle as possible. Be sure
to adapt your speed and driving to the prevailing road
conditions.
The ESC OFF Indicator Light indicates that the
Electronic Stability Control (ESC) is in a reduced
mode.
NOTE:
 The ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light and the
ESC OFF Indicator Light come on momentarily each
time the ignition is placed in the ON position.

Each time the ignition is placed in the ON position,
the ESC system will be on even if it was turned off
previously.

The ESC system will make buzzing or clicking sounds
when it is active. This is normal; the sounds will stop
when ESC becomes inactive following the maneuver
that caused the ESC activation.
Hill Descent Control (HDC) — If Equipped
HDC is intended for low speed off-road driving while in
4WD Low. HDC maintains vehicle speed while descending
hills during various driving situations. HDC controls vehicle
speed by actively controlling the brakes.
HDC Has Three States:
1. Off (feature is not enabled and will not activate).
2. Enabled (feature is enabled and ready but activation
conditions are not met, or driver is actively overriding
with brake or throttle application).
3. Active (feature is enabled and actively controlling
vehicle speed).
Enabling HDC
HDC is enabled by pushing the HDC switch, but the
following conditions must also be met to enable HDC:

The driveline is in 4WD Low.

The vehicle speed is below 5 mph (8 km/h).

The parking brake is released.
 The driver door is closed.
Activating HDC
Once HDC is enabled it will activate automatically if driven
down a grade of sufficient magnitude. The set speed for
HDC is selectable by the driver, and can be adjusted by
using the gear shift +/-. The following summarizes the
HDC set speeds:
HDC Target Set Speeds
 P = No set speed. HDC may be enabled but will not acti -
vate.
 R = 0.6 mph (1 km/h)

N = 1.2 mph (2 km/h)

D = 0.6 mph (1 km/h)

1st = 0.6 mph (1 km/h)
 2nd = 1.2 mph (2 km/h)

3rd = 1.8 mph (3 km/h)

4th = 2.5 mph (4 km/h)

5th = 3.1 mph (5 km/h)
 6th = 3.7 mph (6 km/h)

7th = 4.3 mph (7 km/h)

8th = 5.0 mph (8 km/h)

9th = 5.6 mph (9 km/h) – If Equipped
NOTE:
During HDC the +/- shifter input is used for HDC target
speed selection, but will not affect the gear chosen by the
transmission. When actively controlling HDC the trans -
mission will shift appropriately for the driver-selected set
speed and corresponding driving conditions.
Driver Override
The driver may override HDC activation with throttle or
brake application at any time.
Deactivating HDC
HDC will be deactivated but remain available if any of the
following conditions occur:

Driver overrides HDC set speed with throttle or brake
application.

Vehicle speed exceeds 20 mph (32 km/h) but remains
below 40 mph (64 km/h).

Vehicle is on a downhill grade of insufficient magni -
tude, is on level ground, or is on an uphill grade.

Vehicle is shifted to PARK.
