complete standstill

a slope, Hill Start Assist is automatically
activated
• When Hill Start Assist is activated, the vehicle
remains stationary on the slope for up to two
seconds after the driver releases the brake pedal
• The brakes are automatically released once the
engine has developed sufficient power to prevent
the vehicle from rolling down the slope
• Hill Start Assist will not operate when the parking
brake is engaged

system until front safety belt(s) fastened

after a crash in which the airbags deploy (1)

the vehicle easier to locate if the accident happens
off the roadway

is depleted
SecuriLock Passive Anti-theft System

possible codes) to start the vehicle
• Designed to help prevent the engine from being
