Auto Hold

The Auto Hold maintains the vehicle in a standstill even though the brake pedal is not depressed after the driver brings the vehicle to a complete stop by depressing the brake pedal.

The Auto Hold does not operate when:

• The driver's seat belt is unfastened and driver's door is opened
• The engine hood is opened
• The trunk is opened
• The shift lever is in P (Park)
• The EPB is applied

For your safety, the Auto Hold automatically switches to EPB in such cases:

• The driver's seat belt is unfastened and driver's door is opened
• The engine hood is opened
• The trunk is opened
• The vehicle is in a standstill for more than 10 minutes
• The vehicle is standing on a steep slope for a long period of time
• The vehicle moved several times
  1. Set up
     1. With the driver's door, engine hood and trunk closed, fasten the driver's seat belt or depress the brake pedal and then press the Auto Hold button. The white AUTO HOLD indicator will come on and the system will be in the standby position.
     2. When you stop the vehicle completely by depressing the brake pedal, the AUTO HOLD indicator changes from white to green.
     3. The vehicle will remain stationary even if you release the brake pedal.
     4. If EPB is applied, Auto Hold will be released and the indicator will change to white.
  2. Leaving

     If you want to release it manually, pull the EPB switch while depressing the brake pedal. The AUTO HOLD indicator changes from green to white and the system changes to the standby position.

     For your safety, release the Auto Hold operation manually if the vehicle ahead is too close or during downhill driving.
