WARNING!

(Continued)

HSA is not a parking brake. If you stop the vehicle

on a hill without putting the transmission in PARK
and using the parking brake, it will roll down the
hill and could cause a collision with another ve-
hicle or object. Always remember to use the park-
ing brake while parking on a hill, and that the
driver is responsible for braking the vehicle.

HSA Off
If you wish to turn off the HSA system, it can be done in

the Uconnect® settings. Refer to ЉUconnect® SettingsЉ in
Љ

Understanding Your Instrument PanelЉ for further infor-

mation.

Ready Alert Braking

Ready Alert Braking may reduce the time required to

reach full braking during emergency braking situations.

It anticipates when an emergency braking situation may

occur by monitoring how fast the throttle is released by

the driver. When the throttle is released very quickly,

Ready Alert Braking applies a small amount of brake

pressure. This brake pressure will not be noticed by the

driver. The brake system uses this brake pressure to allow

a fast brake response if the driver applies the brakes.

Rain Brake Support

Rain Brake Support may improve braking performance

in wet conditions. It will periodically apply a small

amount of brake pressure to remove any water buildup

on the front brake rotors. It only functions when the

windshield wipers are in the LO or HI mode, it does not

function in the intermittent mode. When Rain Brake

Support is active, there is no notification to the driver and

no driver interaction is required.
