Press the Hill Descent Control button on the center console. Vehicle speed must be below
31 mph to turn on the system.
Increase or decrease speed by applying the accelerator or brake pedal or use the Cruise
Control +/– buttons on the steering wheel. The adjusted speed becomes the new set speed.

brakes to maintain vehicle speed.
