Starting and operating/Hill start assist system
Hill start assist system
WARNING
.
The Hill start assist system is a
device only for helping the driver
to START the vehicle on an uphill
grade. To prevent accidents
when the vehicle is parked on a
slope, be sure to firmly set the
parking brake. When setting the
parking brake, make sure that the
vehicle remains stationary when
the clutch pedal (MT models) and
brake pedal (both MT and CVT
models) is released.
.
Do not turn the ignition switch to
the
“
LOCK
”
/
“
OFF
”
position while
the Hill start assist system is
operating. The Hill start assist
system will be deactivated, caus-
ing an accident.
The Hill start assist system is a device to
make the following vehicle operations
easier.
1)
Starting forward facing uphill
2)
Starting backward facing downhill
A)
Brake pedal (both MT models and CVT
models)
B)
Clutch pedal (MT models only)
In both these cases, the Hill start assist
system operates under the following con-
ditions.
.
when the clutch pedal is depressed
while the brake pedal is also depressed
(MT models)
.
when the vehicle has stopped with the
brake pedal depressed (CVT models)
Braking power is maintained temporarily
(for approximately 2 seconds) by the Hill
start assist system after the brake pedal is
released. The driver is therefore able to
start the vehicle in the same way as on a
level grade, just using the clutch pedal
(MT models only) and accelerator pedal
(all models).
If the braking power of the Hill start assist
system is insufficient after the brake pedal
is released, apply more braking power by
depressing the brake pedal again.
The Hill start assist system may not
operate on slight grades. Also, the Hill
start assist system does not operate in the
following cases.
