Driving your vehicle
Sensor to Detect Distance to
the Vehicle Ahead
The Smart Cruise Control uses a
sensor to detect distance to the vehi-
cle ahead.
If the sensor is covered with dirt or
other foreign matter, the vehicle to
vehicle distance control may not
operate correctly.
Always keep the sensor clean.
Do not use when:
- Driving in heavy traffic or
when traffic conditions make
it difficult to drive at a con-
stant speed
- Driving on rainy, icy, or
snow-covered roads
- When driving on hilly or
windy roads
- Driving in windy areas
- Driving in parking lots
- Driving near crash barriers
- Driving on a sharp curve
- Driving with limited view
(possibly due to bad weath-
er, such as fog, snow, rain or
sandstorm)
- The vehicle's sensing ability
decreases due to vehicle
modification, resulting in a
level difference of the vehi-
cle's front and rear- The smart cruise control is
supplemental systems to
assist you. Do not entirely
rely on the systems. Always
pay attention, while driving,
for your safety.
- When using the cruise con-
trol mode, you must manual-
ly adjust the distance to
other vehicles by depressing
the brake pedal. The system
does not automatically
adjust the distance to vehi-
cles in front of you.
