WARNING!

(Continued)

HSA is not a parking brake. Always apply the

parking brake fully when leaving your vehicle.
Also, be certain to leave the transmission in PARK.
Failure to follow these warnings may cause the
vehicle to roll down the incline and could collide
with another vehicle, object or person, and cause
serious or fatal injury. Always remember to use the
parking 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

using the Uconnect® Settings. Refer to “Uconnect® Set-

tings” in “Understanding Your Instrument Panel” for

further information.

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.
