➁SET indicator
The cruise control system allows you
to program the vehicle to maintain a
constant speed without pressing the
accelerator pedal.
This system is designed to function
above approximately 40 km/h (25
mph) and below approximately 180
km/h (113 mph).
✽NOTICE
During normal cruise control opera-
tion, when the SET switch is activat-
ed or reactivated after applying the
brakes, the cruise control will ener-
gize after approximately 3 seconds.
This delay is normal.
CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING
• If the cruise control is left on,
(CRUISE indicator light in the
instrument cluster illuminat-
ed) the cruise control can be
activated unintentionally.
Keep the cruise control sys-
tem off (CRUISE indicator
light OFF) when the cruise
control is not in use, to avoid
inadvertently setting a speed.
• Use the cruise control system
only when traveling on open
highways in good weather.
• Do not use the cruise control
when it may not be safe to
keep the vehicle at a constant
speed, for instance, driving in
heavy or varying traffic, or on
slippery (rainy, icy or snow-
covered) or winding roads or
over 6% up-hill or down-hill
roads.
• Pay particular attention to the
driving conditions whenever
using the cruise control sys-
tem.

• Be careful when driving
downhill using the cruise con-
trol system, which may
increase the vehicle speed.

Cruise control speed
To set cruise control speed:
1.Push the CRUISE button on the
steering wheel to turn the system
on. The CRUISE indicator light in
the instrument cluster will illumi-
nate.
2.Accelerate to the desired speed,
which must be more than 40 km/h
(25 mph) and less than 180 km/h
(113 mph).3.Push the SET- switch, and release
it at the desired speed. The SET
indicator light in the instrument
cluster will illuminate. Release the
accelerator pedal. The desired
speed will automatically be main-
tained.
On a steep grade, the vehicle may
slow down or speed up slightly while
going uphill or downhill.To increase cruise control set
speed:
Follow either of these procedures:
• Push the RES+ switch and hold it.
Your vehicle will accelerate.
Release the switch at the speed
you want.
• Push the RES+ switch and release
it immediately. The cruising speed
will increase by 2.0 km/h (1.2 mph)
or 1.0 mph (1.6 km/h) each time
the RES+ switch is operated in this
manner.
• You can set the speed to 180 km/h
(113 mph).

To decrease the cruising speed:
Follow either of these procedures:
• Push the SET- switch and hold it.
Your vehicle will gradually slow
down. Release the switch at the
speed you want to maintain.
• Push the SET- switch and release
it immediately. The cruising speed
will decrease by 2.0 km/h (1.2
mph) or 1.0 mph (1.6 km/h) each
time the SET- switch is operated in
this manner.
• You can set the speed to 40 km/h
(25 mph).
To temporarily accelerate with the
cruise control on:
If you want to speed up temporarily
when the cruise control is on,
depress the accelerator pedal.
Increased speed will not interfere
with cruise control operation or
change the set speed.
To return to the set speed, take your
foot off the accelerator.
If you press the SET- switch at
increased speed, the cruising speed
will be set again.
Cruise control will be canceled
when:
• Depressing the brake pedal.
• Shifting the shift lever into N
(Neutral).
• Pulling the CANCEL switch located
on the steering wheel.
• Decreasing the vehicle speed
lower than the memory speed by
15 km/h (9 mph).
• Decreasing the vehicle speed to
less than approximately 32 km/h
(20 mph).
• Increasing the vehicle speed to
more than approximately 200 km/h
(125 mph).

control when it may not be
safe to keep the car at a con-
stant speed. For instance,
driving in heavy or varying
traffic, or on slippery (rainy,
icy or snow-covered) or wind-
ing roads or steep hills.
• Pay particular attention to the

Smart cruise control speed
To set cruise control speed:
1.Push the CRUISE button on the
steering wheel to turn the system
on. The CRUISE indicator light in
the instrument cluster will illumi-
nate.
2.Accelerate to the desired speed.
The smart cruise control speed
can be set as follows:
• 30 km/h (18.6 mph) ~180 km/h
(113 mph) : when there is no
vehicle in front
• 0 km/h (0 mph) ~180 km/h (113
mph) : when there is a vehicle in
front3.Push the SET- switch, and release
it at the desired speed. The SET
indicator light, set speed and vehi-
cle to vehicle distance on the LCD
screen will illuminate.
4.Release the accelerator pedal. The
desired speed will automatically be
maintained.
If there is a vehicle in front of you, the
speed may decrease to maintain the
distance to the vehicle ahead.
On a steep grade, the vehicle may
slow down or speed up slightly while
going uphill or downhill.
(Continued)
• The smart cruise control sys-
tem is not a substitute for safe
driving. It is the responsibility
of the driver to always check
the speed and distance of the
vehicle ahead.

Driving your vehicle
• Your vehicle speed can be reduced
due to a vehicle in the adjacent
lane. Adjust your vehicle speed by
depressing the brake pedal
according to the road condition
ahead and driving condition. Apply
the accelerator pedal and select
the appropriate set speed. Check
to be sure that the road conditions
permit safe operation of the smart
cruise control.
On inclines
• During uphill or downhill driving,
the smart cruise control system
may not detect a moving vehicle in
your lane, and cause your vehicle
to accelerate to the set speed.
Also, the vehicle speed will rapidly
down when the vehicle ahead is
recognized suddenly.
• Select the appropriate set speed
on inclines and adjust your vehicle
speed by depressing the accelera-
tor or brake pedal according to the
road condition ahead and driving
condition.
Lane changing
• A vehicle which moves into your
lane from an adjacent lane cannot
be recognized by the sensor until it
is in the sensor's detection range.
• The sensor may not detect imme-
diately when a vehicle cuts in sud-
denly. Always pay attention to the
traffic, road and driving conditions.
• If a vehicle which moves into your
lane is slower than your vehicle,
your speed may decrease to main-
tain the distance to the vehicle
ahead.

For your safety, the intelligent accel-
erator pedal operates as follows:
The reactive force of the accelerator
pedal increases when the fuel effi-
ciency is low.
The intelligent accelerator pedal
function is available for use in vehi-
cles equipped with drive mode inte-
grated control system and ECO driv-
ing mode.
The intelligent accelerator pedal is
related with AVSM (Advanced vehi-
cle safety management) and ECO
driving.
To cancel this system, cancel all sys-
tem in User Settings Mode.
• AVSM : refer to the User Settings
Mode in chapter 4.
• ECO driving : refer to the User
Settings Mode in
chapter 4.
INTELLIGENT ACCELERATOR PEDAL (IF EQUIPPED)
CAUTION
Do not be surprised when the
pedal occurs reactive force. It's
not a malfunction but a warning
for your safety.

Brake operating
• If the AVSM senses the collision,
the brake system comes to stan-
dard mode to react promptly when
the driver operates the brake
pedal.
• If the driver releases the accelera-
tor after warning in hazardous situ-
ations, the AVSM automatically
brakes the vehicle gently.
• If the driver hits the brake to reduce
vehicle speed, the brake assistant
system operates to raise efficiency
of braking.
• If danger disappears, if the driver
depresses the accelerator or if the
driver releases the brake pedal,
the brake operating stop.
Seat belt operating
The seat belt tightens when the vehi-
cle senses a collision.
WARNING
The AVSM does not stop the
vehicle completely and does
not avoid collision. Always look
ahead cautiously to prevent
unexpected and sudden situa-
tions from occurring.
WARNING
The AVSM operates according
to the distance from the vehicle
ahead, relative velocity and dri-
ver's operation of the brake or
accelerator pedal. Do not drive
dangerously to operate the
AVSM.
CAUTION
• When the AVSM is controlled
or turned off, make sure that
the vehicle is stopped.
• When the engine is running by
turning on, the AVSM is auto-
matically turned on. If is not
required, select the AVSM OFF
in USM.
• If the AVSM ON is selected in
USM (User Settings Mode), if
the ESC is cancelled by press-
ing the ESC OFF button, the
AVSM function is automatical-
ly cancelled. And then it is
impossible to control the
AVSM by manually.
