CAUTION
• Never place anything over sensor
(1) located on the instrument
panel. This will ensure better
auto-light system control.
• Don’t clean the sensor using a
window cleaner. The cleaner may
leave a light film which could
interfere with sensor operation.
• If your vehicle has window tint or
other types of metallic coating on
the front windshield, the Auto
light system may not work prop-
erly.
WARNING
Do not use high beam when there
are other vehicles. Using high
beam could obstruct the other dri-
ver's vision.

Auto control (if equipped)
The rain sensor located on the upper end
of the windshield glass senses the
amount of rainfall and controls the wiping
cycle for the proper interval. The more it
rains, the faster the wiper operates.
When the rain stops, the wiper stops.To vary the speed setting, turn the speed
control knob (1).
If the wiper switch is set in AUTO mode
when the ignition switch is ON, the wiper
will operate once to perform a self-check
of the system. Set the wiper to OFF (O)
position when the wiper is not in use.

This indicator illuminates
when the auto defogging
system senses the moisture
of inside the windshield and
operates.
If more moisture is in the vehicle, higher
steps operate as follow. For example if
auto defogging does not defog inside the
windshield at step 1 Outside air position,
it tries to defog again at step 2 operating
the air conditioning.
Step 1 : Outside air position
Step 2 : Operating the air conditioning
Step 3 : Blowing air toward the wind-
shield
Step 4 : Increasing air flow toward the
windshield
Step 5 : Maximizing the air conditioning
If your vehicle is equipped with the auto
defogging system, it is automatically acti-
vated when the conditions are met.
However, if you would like to cancel the
auto defogging system, press the front
defroster button for 3 seconds when the
ignition switch or ENGINE START/STOP
button is in the ON position.The indicator of front defroster button will
blink 3 times to notify you that the system
is cancelled. To use the auto defogging
system again, follow the procedures
mentioned above. The indicator of front
defroster button will blink 6 times at inter-
vals of 0.5 seconds to notify you that the
system is set.
If the battery has been disconnected or
discharged, it resets to the auto defog-
ging status.
✽NOTICE
If the A/C off or recirculated air position
is manually selected while the auto
defogging system is on, the auto defog-
ging indicator will blink 3 times to give
notice that the A/C off or recirculated air
position operation cannot be selected.

WARNING
When using the cruise control
mode, you must manually access
the distance to other vehicles as the
system will not automatically brake
to slow down for other vehicles.
CAUTION
• Do not install accessories around
the sensor and do not replace the
bumper by yourself. It may inter-
fere with the sensor performance.
• Always keep the sensor and
bumper clean.
• To prevent sensor cover damage
from occurring, wash the car with
a soft cloth.
• Do not damage the sensor or sen-
sor area by a strong impact. If the
sensor moves slightly off posi-

tem will not operate correctly.
If this occurs, we recommend that
the system be inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
• Use only a genuine HYUNDAI
sensor cover for your vehicle.

Lane changing
• A vehicle which moves into your lane
from an adjacent lane cannot be rec-
ognized by the sensor until it is in the
sensor's detection range.
• The sensor may not detect immediate-
ly when a vehicle cuts in suddenly.
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 maintain 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 when a
vehicle ahead of you disappears.
• When you are warned that the vehicle
ahead of you is not detected, drive with
caution.
Vehicle recognition
Some vehicles ahead in your lane cannot
be recognized by the sensor as follows:
- Narrow vehicles such as motorcycles or
bicycles
- Vehicles offset to one side
- Slow-moving vehicles or sudden-decel-
erating vehicles
- Stopped vehicles
- Vehicles with small rear profile such as
trailers with no loads

A vehicle ahead cannot be recognized
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
Apply the brakes or accelerator pedal if
necessary.
• When vehicles are at a standstill and
the vehicle in front of you changes to
the next lane, be careful when your
vehicle starts to move because it may
not recognize the stopped vehicle in
front of you.• Always look out for pedestrians when
your vehicle is maintaining a distance
with the vehicle ahead.

The Blind Spot Detection System (BSD)
uses a radar sensor to alert the driver.
It senses the rear side territory of the
vehicle and provides an indication to the
driver if it detects an object approaching
from these areas.(1) BSD (Blind Spot Detection)
The warning range depends on your
vehicle speed. However, if your vehi-
cle is much faster than the other vehi-
cle, the system will not warn you.
(2) LCA (Lane Change Assist)
If the system detects a vehicle
approaching you at high speed, the
system will warn you.
(3) RCTA (Rear Cross Traffic Alert)
If the sensor detects an approaching
vehicle from the left and right side as
your vehicle moves rearward, the sys-
tem will warn you.

WARNING
• Always check the road condition
while driving for unexpected situ-
ations even though the Blind
Spot Detection System (BSD) is
operating.
(Continued)
WARNING
As the Blind Spot Detection (BSD)
system is a supplemental device for
your safe driving, it may be danger-
ous to rely on only the BSD infor-
mation when changing the lane.
Always pay attention to drive safely.
(Continued)
• The Blind Spot Detection System
(BSD) is a supplemental system
to assist you. Do not solely rely
on the system and always pay
attention and drive safely.
• The Blind Spot Detection System
(BSD) is not a substitute for prop-
er and safe driving. Always drive
safely and use caution when
changing lanes or backing the
vehicle up. The Blind Spot
Detection System (BSD) may not
detect every object alongside the
vehicle.
