Limitations of the system
The Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB) system is designed to monitor
the vehicle ahead or a pedestrian in
the roadway through radar signals and
camera recognition to warn the driverthat a collision is imminent, and if nec-
essary, apply emergency braking.
In certain situations, the radar sen-
sor or the camera may not be able to
detect the vehicle or pedestrian
ahead. In these cases, the AEB sys-
tem may not operate normally. The
driver must pay careful attention in
the following situations where the
AEB operation may be limited:v
Detecting vehicles
The sensor may be limited when:
- The radar sensor or camera isblocked with a foreign object or
debris
- Inclement weather such as heavy rain or snow obscures the field of
view of the radar sensor or camera
- There is interference by electro- magnetic waves
- There is severe irregular reflection from the radar sensor
- The vehicle in front is too small to be detected by the camera recog-
nition system (for example a motor-
cycle or a bicycle, etc.)
- The vehicle in front is an oversize vehicle or trailer that is too big to
be detected by the camera recog-
nition system (for example a tractor
trailer, etc.)
- The driver's field of view is not well illuminated (either too dark or too
much reflection or too much back-
light that obscures the field of view) - The vehicle in front does not have
their rear lights properly turned ON
- The outside brightness changes suddenly, for example when enter-
ing or exiting a tunnel
- The vehicle in front is driving errat- ically

Driving your vehicle
- Driving on a curve
The performance of the AEB system
may be limited when driving on a
curved road.
In certain instances on a curved
road, the AEB system may activate
prematurely.
Also, in certain instances the front
radar sensor or camera recognition
system may not detect the vehicle
traveling on a curved road.
In these cases, the driver must main-
tain a safe braking distance, and if
necessary, depress the brake pedal
to reduce your driving speed in order
to maintain a safe distance.- Driving on a slope
The performance of the AEB
decreases while driving upward or
downward on a slope, not recogniz-
ing the vehicle in front in the same
lane. It may unnecessarily produce
the warning message and the warn-
ing alarm, or it may not produce the
warning message and the warning
alarm at all.
When the AEB suddenly recognizes
the vehicle in front while passing
over a slope, you may experience
sharp deceleration.Always keep your eyes forward while
driving upward or downward on a
slope, and, if necessary, depress the
brake pedal to reduce your driving
speed in order to maintain distance.

- Changing lanes
When a vehicle changes lanes in
front of you, the AEB system may not
immediately detect the vehicle, espe-
cially if the vehicle changes lanes
abruptly. In this case, you must main-
tain a safe braking distance, and if
necessary, depress the brake pedal
to reduce your driving speed in order
to maintain a safe distance.When driving in stop-and-go traffic,
and a stopped vehicle in front of you
merges out of the lane, the AEB sys-
tem may not immediately detect the
new vehicle that is now in front of
you. In this case, you must maintain
a safe braking distance, and if nec-
essary, depress the brake pedal to
reduce your driving speed in order to
maintain a safe distance.
- Detecting the vehicle in front of you
If the vehicle in front of you has cargo
that extends rearward from the cab,
or when the vehicle in front of you
has higher ground clearance, addi-tional special attention is required.
The AEB system may not be able to
detect the cargo extending from the
vehicle. In these instances, you must
maintain a safe braking distance
from the rearmost object, and if nec-
essary, depress the brake pedal to
reduce your driving speed in order to
maintain distance.

Detecting pedestrians
The sensor may be limited when:
- The pedestrian is not fully detectedby the camera recognition system,
for example, if the pedestrian is
leaning over or is not fully walking
upright
- The pedestrian is moving very quickly or appears abruptly in the
camera detection area
The pedestrian is wearing clothing
that easily blends into the back-
ground, making it difficult to be
detected by the camera recogni-tion system
- The outside lighting is too bright (e.g. when driving in bright sunlight
or in sun glare) or too dark (e.g.
when driving on a dark rural roadat night)
- It is difficult to detect and distin- guish the pedestrian from other
objects in the surroundings, for
example, when there is a group of
pedestrians or a large crowdInformation
In some instances, the AEB system
may be cancelled when subjected to
electromagnetic interference.
Information
This device complies with Part 15 of
the FCC rules.
Operation is subject to the following
two conditions:
1. This device may not cause harmful interference, and
2. This device must accept any inter- ference received, including interfer-
ence that may cause undesired
operation.

Do not use the Autonomous
Emergency Braking system
when towing a vehicle.Application of the AEB system
while towing may adversely
affect the safety of your vehi-
cle or the towing vehicle
Use extreme caution when the
vehicle in front of you has
cargo that extends rearward
from the cab, or when the
vehicle in front of you has
higher ground clearance.
The AEB system is designed to detect and monitor the vehi-
cle ahead or detect a pedestri-
an in the roadway throughradar signals and camera
recognition. It is not designed
to detect bicycles, motorcy-
cles, or smaller wheeled
objects such as luggage bags,
shopping carts, or strollers.
Never try to test the operation
of the AEB system. Doing so
may cause severe injury ordeath.

The Lane Departure Warning
(LDWS) System feature is designed
to monitor the vehicle's position rela-
tive to the lane in front of you and
detect when the vehicle begins to
move out of its lane.

Take the following precautions
when using the Lane Departure
Warning System (LDWS):
ALWAYS check your sur-
roundings and the road condi-
tions before changing lanes.
The LDWS does not control
the vehicle to change lanes or
to stay in the current lane
Do not make abrupt maneu-
vers or turn the steering
wheel suddenly if the LDWS
alerts you that the vehicle is
departing from the lane
If the camera recognition sys-
tem does not properly detect
the lane, the LDWS may not
notify you if the vehicle
departs from the lane
The LDWS does not operate
until the vehicle speed reach-
es approximately 40 mph (64km/h)
(Continued)
(Continued)
The LDWS camera recogni-
tion system is located in front
of the rear view mirror at the
center of the front windshield.
Do not spray water or anytype of liquid near the camera.
The system may become
damaged.
Do not attempt to repair the
LDWS camera and do not
remove any parts
Do not place objects that
reflect light on the dashboardwhile driving
The operation of the LDWS
may be affected by several
factors including environmen-
tal conditions that affect theability of the camera to detect
the lanes in front of you. It isthe responsibility of the driver
to pay careful attention to the
roadway and to maintain the
vehicle in its intended lane atall times.

LDWS Operation
To activate the LDWS:
With the ignition switch is in the ON
position, press the LDWS button
located on the instrument panel on
the lower left hand side of the driver.
The indicator in the cluster display
will initially illuminate white. This indi-
cates the LDWS is in the READY but
NOT ENABLED state.
Note that the vehicle speed must be
at least approximately 40 mph (64
km/h) to ENABLE the LDWS. The
indicator in the cluster display will
illuminate green.If your vehicle speed exceeds 40
mph (64 km/h) and the LDWS button
is ON, the system is enabled. If your
vehicle departs from the projected
lane in front of you, the LDWS oper-
ates as follows:1. A visual warning appears on the
cluster LCD display. Either the left
lane line or the right lane line in
the cluster LCD display will blinkdepending on which direction the
vehicle is veering.
2. An audible warning sounds to alert the driver.

Warning Light and Message
If there is a malfunction with the
LDWS, the indicator on the cluster
will illuminate yellow. Additionally, a
message that reads, "Check LDWS",will appear on the cluster LCD dis-
play. After the message disappears,
the master warning light ( ) will
illuminate.
Take your vehicle to an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer and have the sys-
tem checked.
The LDWS does not operate when:
The driver turns on the turn signalto change lanes or operates the
hazard warning flasher.
The camera recognition system detects that the vehicle is driving
on the lane lines.
Information
Always operate the turn signal before
changing lanes.
Limitations of the system
The LDWS may operate prematurely
even if the vehicle does not depart
from the intended lane, OR, the
LDWS may not warn you if the vehi-
cle leaves the intended lane under
the following circumstances:
The lanes ahead are not visibledue to rain, snow, water on the road, damaged or stained road
surface, or other factors
The brightness outside changes suddenly such as when entering or
exiting a tunnel
The brightness outside is too low such as when the headlamps are
not on at night or the vehicle isgoing through a tunnel
It is difficult to distinguish the lane marking from the road surface or
the lane marking is faded or not
clearly marked

Cruise Control operation
1. CRUISE indicator
2. SET indicator
The Cruise Control system allows
you to drive at speeds above 20 mph(30 km/h) without depressing the
accelerator pedal.
Information
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.
Before activating the cruise control function, the system will check to
verify that the brake switch is oper-
ating normally. Depress the brake
pedal at least once after turning ON
the ignition or starting the engine.

Take the following precautions:
If the Cruise Control is left on,
("CRUISE" indicator light in
the instrument cluster is illu-
minated) the Cruise Control
can be activated unintention-
ally. Keep the Cruise Control
system off ("CRUISE" indica-tor light OFF) when the Cruise
Control is not in use, to avoid
inadvertently setting a speed.
Use the Cruise Control sys-
tem only when traveling on
open highways in good
weather.
Do not use the Cruise Control
when it may be unsafe to keep
the vehicle at a constantspeed:
- When driving in heavy traffic
or when traffic conditions make it difficult to drive at aconstant speed
- When driving on rainy, icy, or snow-covered roads
