Renault Clio: Hill start assistance
This function assists the driver when
starting on hills. It prevents the vehicle
from rolling backwards, depending on
the slope, by automatically applying the
brakes when the driver lifts his/her foot
off the brake pedal to depress the accelerator
pedal.
System operation
It only operates when the gear lever is
in a position other than neutral (other
than N or P for automatic transmissions)
and the vehicle is completely
stationary (brake pedal depressed)
The system holds the vehicle for approximately
2 seconds. The brakes are
then gradually released (the vehicle will
move according to the slope).
The hill start assistance
system cannot completely
prevent the vehicle from
rolling backwards in all situations
(extremely steep gradients,
etc.).
In all cases, the driver may depress
the brake pedal to prevent the vehicle
from rolling forwards or backwards.
The hill start assistance function
should not be used for prolonged
stops: use the brake pedal.
This function is not designed to immobilise
the vehicle permanently.
If necessary, use the brake pedal to
stop the vehicle.
The driver must remain particularly
vigilant when driving on slippery or
low-grip surfaces and/or on hills.
