WARNING SYSTEMS SWITCH (if so equipped) ● The hill descent control may not control the vehicle speed on a hill under all load or road conditions. Always be prepared to depress the brake pedal to control vehicle speed. Failure to do so may result in a collision or serious personal injury. ● the hill descent control system switch must be ON. The vehicle speed must be kept below 15 MPH (25 km/h). The hill descent control indicator light will come on when the system is activated. Also, the stop/tail lights illuminate while the hill descent control system applies the brakes to control vehicle speed. If the accelerator or brake pedal is depressed while the hill descent control system is on, the system will stop operating temporarily. As soon as the accelerator or brake pedal is released, the hill descent control system begins to function again if the hill descent control operating conditions are fulfilled. The hill descent control indicator light blinks if the switch is on and all conditions for system activation are not met or if the system becomes disengaged for any reason. To turn off the hill descent control system, push the switch to the OFF position. For additional information, refer to "Hill descent control system on indicator light" in this section and "Hill descent control system" in the "Starting and driving" section of this manual. CAUTION When the hill descent control system operates continuously for a long time, the temperature of the brake pads may increase and the hill descent control system may be temporarily disabled (the indicator light will blink). If the indicator light does not come on continuously after blinking, stop using the system. The hill descent control system is designed to reduce driver workload when going down steep hills. The hill descent control system helps to control vehicle speed so the driver can concentrate on steering the vehicle. To activate the hill descent control system: ● activate the AWD LOCK switch, ● the transmission shift lever must be in forward or reverse gear, LIC2225 The warning systems switch is used to turn on and off the warning systems (Lane Departure Warning (LDW), Forward Collision Warning (FCW) and Blind Spot Warning (BSW) systems) that are activated using the settings menu on the vehicle information display. When the warning systems switch is turned off, 1 on the switch is off. The indicator the indicator ᭺ will also be off if all of the warning systems are deactivated using the settings menu. The LDW system will sound a warning chime and blink the LDW indicator light (orange) to alert the driver if the vehicle is traveling close to either the left or the right of a traveling lane with detectable Instruments and controls 2-41
