Driving your vehicle
Hill-start assist control (HAC)
Good braking practices
WARNING
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.
•
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.
WARNING
•
All vehicles should always set
the parking brake, when park-
inadvertent
movement, which may injure
occupants or pedestrians.
The HAC is activated only for
about 2 seconds, so always
depress the accelerator pedal
to begin driving upwards after a
stop.

•
The HAC does not operate when the
shift lever is in P(Park) or
N(Neutral).
• 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.
The HAC activates, even when the
ESC is OFF. However, it does not
activate, when the ESC malfunc-
tions.
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.
