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. If a vehicle which moves into your
lane is faster than your vehicle,
your vehicle will accelerate to the
selected speed.
Your vehicle may accelerate whena vehicle ahead of you disappears.
When you are warned that the vehicle ahead of you is not detect-
ed, drive with caution.

Vehicle recognition
Some vehicles ahead in your lane
cannot be recognized by the sensor
as follows:
- Narrow vehicles such as motorcy-cles or bicycles
- Vehicles offset to one side
- Slow-moving vehicles or sudden- decelerating vehicles
- Stopped vehicles
- Vehicles with small rear profile such as trailers with no loads A vehicle ahead cannot be recog-
nized correctly by the sensor if any of
following occurs:
- When the vehicle is pointing
upwards due to overloading in the
trunk
- While making turns by steering
- When driving to one side of the lane
- When driving on narrow lanes or on curves
Adjust your vehicle speed by
depressing the brake pedal accord-
ing to the road condition ahead and
driving condition. When vehicles are at a standstill
and the vehicle in front of you
changes to the next lane, be care-
ful when your vehicle starts to
move because it may not recog-
nize the stopped vehicle in front of
you.

Always look out for pedestrians
when your vehicle is maintaining a
distance with the vehicle ahead. Always be cautious for vehicles
that are taller with higher clear-
ance, or vehicles carrying loads
that stick out of the back of the
vehicle.
WARNING - Safe Use of
ASCC
The ASCC can provide you with
an additional level of safety and
fatigue reduction. However you
must maintain careful observa-
tion of the roadway in front and
around you and maintain control
of your vehicle and spacing
around other vehicles as you
normally would. For example,
this will require you to apply the
brakes as needed when coming
upon a slower moving vehicle, or
when a vehicle from another lane
drives quickly in front of you.

Driving your vehicle
- After an engine start, please stopfor several seconds. If system ini-
tialization is not completed, the
ASCC does not normally operate.
- After an engine start, if any objects are not detected or the sensor
cover is obscured with foreign sub-
stances, there is a possibility that
the ASCC system may not work.
- The following conditions may cause a malfunction: over-loading
the trunk, suspension modification,
tire replacement with unauthorized
tires or tires with different tread
wear and pressure levels. This device complies with Part 15
of the FCC rules.
Operation is subject to the following
three conditions:
1. This device may not cause harm-
ful interference, and
2. This device must accept any inter- ference received, including inter-
ference that may cause undesired
operation.
3. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could
void the user’s authority to operate
the device. Radio frequency radiation expo-
sure information:
This equipment complies with FCC
radiation exposure limits set forth for
an uncontrolled environment.
This equipment should be installed
and operated with minimum distance
of 20 cm between the radiator
(antenna) and your body.
This transmitter must not be co-
located or operating in conjunction
with any other antenna or transmit-
ter.
WARNING - Inclines &
Towing
Do not use ASCC on steep
inclines or when towing another
vehicle or trailer since such
extreme loading can interfere
with your vehicle's ability to
maintain the selected speed.

DRIVE MODE
The driver can personalize the
DRIVE MODE based on vehicle con-
trol preference and driving style.
Below is a list of the message which
will appear on the upper LCD screen. COMFORT MODE:
Drive mode for smooth and high ride
quality.
ECO (ACTIVE ECO) MODE:
Drive mode optimized for economic
driving.
SPORT MODE:
Drive mode for aggressive driving
and solid ride quality.
SMART MODE:
Depending on the driver's driving
style (Economic
\bAggressive), drive
mode will automatically change
among ECO \bCOMFORT \b
SPORT. Below is a diagram of mode changes
when pressing the DRIVE MODE
button.
If you turn off the engine of the
vehicle in any of the COMFORT /
ECO / SMART MODE, and restart
the engine, DRIVE MODE will
memorize and return to the previ-
ous drive mode setting. (With
exception of SPORT MODE. If the
engine is turned off in SPORT
MODE, DRIVE MODE will be reset
to COMFORT MODE).

ECO MODE Driving:
The vehicle engine and transmission
will operate in fuel economy oriented
mode.
ACTIVE ECO MODE system will
restrain fuel economy worsening
driving habits, such as suddenly
starts and accelerations, compare to
the COMFORT MODE.
Conditions that limit Active
ECO MODE:
Below are a list of conditions in which
when in ACTIVE ECO MODE, the
indicator light will not change, but the
internal system may operate differ-
ently.
When engine coolant temperature is low:
When temperature of the transaxle
oil is below the comfort range, the
ACTIVE ECO MODE may become
temporarily unavailable until the
transaxle oil heats up after vehicle
ignition.
When in an uphill gradient: Since the ACTIVE ECO MODE
partially limits the engine torque,
ACTIVE ECO MODE may become
temporarily unavailable when more
torque is essential for going uphill.
When using the manual transmis- sion operation mode:
If transmission operation is
changed from automatic to manual,
vehicle will reflect it and automati-
cally stop the ACTIVE ECO MODE.

• SMART MODE an intelligent driving mode and when the driving style is
economic and fuel efficient, the SMART ECO MODE will be automati-

cient, but the actual fuel economy will depend on various driving factor\
s
(on uphill/ downhill, heavy revving or braking).
• If you make sudden accelerations or turns in SMART MODE, the intelli- gent mode will select SMART SPORT MODE. This may decrease fuel effi-

DRIVE MODE Indicator Screen
The DRIVE MODE indicator screen
can be displayed by using the trip com-
puter button on the steering wheel.
DRIVE MODE indicator screen dis-
plays status of current drive mode.
DRIVE MODE button is located on
the lower part of the transmission
lever for selecting drive mode.
If drive mode is selected manually
by the user, the drive mode indica-
tor screen will show user-selected
drive mode. (COMFORT, ECO, or
SPORT)
If SMART MODE is selected by
DRIVE MODE button, the drive
mode indicator screen will show
current drive mode automatically
selected by SMART MODE sys-
tem. (SMART COMFORT, SMART
ECO, or SMART SPORT) When the trip computer mode is
selected to show DRIVE MODE
and the SMART MODE is in oper-
ation, an automatically selected
driving mode SMART ECO,
SMART COMFORT, or SMART
SPORT, will be selected on the
cluster's center.
And right below is the horizontal
driving style gauge which reflects
the driving style in real time.
If you drive carefully and slowly in SMART MODE, the left side of the
driving style gauge will illuminate,
and be automatically shifted to the
SMART ECO MODE.
When the driver accelerates more
frequently, the right side of the driv-
ing style gauge will fill up, and shift
to SMART COMFORT MODE.
In addition, if the rate of accelera-
tion and speed is high, drive mode
will change to SMART SPORT
MODE. If the auto cruise control function is
operated or the transmission is
shifted to manual mode while
SMART MODE is on, the SMART
MODE will stop temporarily, and
the DRIVE MODE will be displayed
as OFF. The driving style gauge
light will be turned off accordingly.
