Jeep 2015 Wrangler - Owner Manual - Manual (Page 474)

WARNING!
There may be situations on minor hills with a loaded
vehicle, or while pulling a trailer where the system
will not activate and slight rolling may occur, which
could cause a collision with another vehicle or object.
Always remember the driver is responsible for brak-
ing the vehicle.
The system will only work if the intended direction of the
vehicle and vehicle gear match. For example, if the
intended direction is forward up a hill and the vehicle is
in DRIVE (automatic transmission equipped vehicle),
and the activation criteria are met, HSA will activate.
HSA On Automatic Transmission Vehicles
The system will work in REVERSE, and all forward gears
on vehicles equipped with an automatic transmission.
The system will not activate if the vehicle is placed in
NEUTRAL.
HSA On Manual Transmission Vehicles
The system will work in REVERSE, forward gears, and
NEUTRAL on manual transmission equipped vehicles.
The system does not recognize NEUTRAL on manual
vehicles, thus it will hold the vehicle on an incline for a
short period while in NEUTRAL, regardless of clutch
position. If the vehicle is pointed down hill in NEUTRAL
and your foot is not on the clutch, it will roll down hill,
HSA will not hold you in this case. To prevent this, do not
attempt to roll down a hill simply by putting the trans-
mission in NEUTRAL and letting gravity act on the
vehicle. Instead, use the appropriate gear for moving in
the desired direction.
NOTE:
Towing With HSA
HSA will provide assistance when starting on a grade
when pulling a trailer.
