Hill Start Assist stops your vehicle rolling backwards when you are starting on a hill.

If incline sensors detect that the slope is higher than a certain threshold, the function automatically engages and will briefly apply the brakes when you take your foot off the brake pedal, so your vehicle does not roll backwards. Once you press the accelerator, the brake is released.
