Activating hill descent
You can activate hill descent control to allow for a more controlled and active braking.
Hill descent control1 allows your car to automatically apply braking when it detects that you are driving downhill. This can be useful as it can help you in maintaining a low speed and avoid unwanted acceleration. Activating HDC also changes the feel of the accelerator pedal to improve control and traction on slippery surfaces.
Note
If hill descent control is deactivated while driving on a steep downhill gradient, the automatic braking effect will gradually decrease.
Hill descent control is only available at speeds below 40 km/h (25 mph). Driving at higher speeds automatically disables the feature.
