Select the appropriate distance
according to road conditions and
vehicle speed.Each time the button is pressed, the
vehicle to vehicle distance changes
as follows:
For example, if you drive at 55 mph
(90 km/h), the distance maintain as
follows;
Distance 4 - approximately 172 feet
(52 m)
Distance 3 - approximately 130 feet (40 m)
Distance 2 - approximately 106 feet (32 m)
Distance 1 - approximately 82 feet (25 m)
✽ ✽NOTICE
The 'Distance 4' is always set when
the system is used for the first time
after starting the engine.
The vehicle will maintain the set
speed, when the lane ahead is
clear.
The vehicle will slow down or speed up to maintain the selected
distance, when there is a vehicle
ahead of you in the lane. (A vehicle
will appear in front of your vehicle
in the LCD display only when there
is an actual vehicle in front of you)

Driving your vehicle
In traffic situation
In traffic, your vehicle will stop if thevehicle ahead of you stops. Also, if
the vehicle ahead of you starts
moving, your vehicle will start as
well. However, if the vehicle stops
for more than 3 seconds, you must
depress the accelerator pedal or
push the (RES+ or SET-) switch to
start driving.
If you push the Smart cruise con- trol switch (RES+ or SET-) while
Auto Hold and Smart cruise control
is operating (The green AUTO
HOLD indicator), Auto Hold will be
released regardless of accelerator
pedal operation and the vehicle will
start to move.
Sensor to detect distance to
the vehicle ahead
The sensor detects the distance to
the vehicle 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 area in front of the
sensor clean.
Sensor warning message
If the sensor or cover is dirty or
obscured with foreign matter such as
snow, this message will appear.
In this case, the system may not
function temporarily, but it does not
indicate a malfunction of the Smart
Cruise Control System.
Clean the sensor or cover by using a
soft cloth.

Driving your vehicle
1. Turn the smart cruise control sys-tem on (the cruise indicator light
will be on but the system will not
be activated).
2. Push the distance to distance switch for more than 2 seconds.
3. Choose between "Smart cruise control(SCC) mode" and "Cruise
control(CC) mode".
Limitations of the system
The smart cruise control system may
have limits to its ability to detect dis-
tance to the vehicle ahead due to
road and traffic conditions.
On curves
On curves, the smart cruise controlsystem may not detect a moving
vehicle in your lane, and then your
vehicle could accelerate to the set
speed. Also, the vehicle speed will
slow down when the vehicle ahead
is recognized suddenly.
Select the appropriate set speed on curves and apply the brakes or
accelerator pedal if necessary. Your vehicle speed can be reduced
due to a vehicle in the adjacent
lane. Apply the accelerator pedal
and select the appropriate set
speed. Check to be sure that the
road conditions permit safe opera-
tion of the smart cruise control.
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.OBH058030OBH058029

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 slow
down when the vehicle ahead is
recognized suddenly.
Select the appropriate set speed on inclines and apply the brakes or
accelerator pedal if necessary.
Lane changing
A vehicle which moves into yourlane 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 when
a 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
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 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
with higher height or vehicles car-
rying loads that sticks out to the
back of the vehicle.

WARNING
The smart cruise control sys-tem cannot guarantee the
stop for every emergency sit-
uation.
If an emergency stop is nec-
essary, you must apply the
brakes.
Keep a safe distance accord- ing to road conditions and
vehicle speed. If the vehicle to
vehicle distance is too close
during a high-speed driving, a
serious collision may result.
The smart cruise control sys- tem cannot recognize a
stopped vehicle, pedestrians
or an oncoming vehicle.
Always look ahead cautiously
to prevent unexpected and
sudden situations from occur-
ring.

ACTIVE ECO SYSTEM
Active ECO operation
Active ECO helps improve fuel effi-
ciency by controlling certain engine
and transaxle system operating
parameters. Fuel efficiency depends
on the driver's driving habit and road
condition. When the Active ECO button is
pressed the ECO indicator (green)
will illuminate to show that the
Active ECO is operating.
When the Active ECO is activated, it will remain on until the Active
ECO button is pressed again.
Active ECO does not turn off when
the engine is restarted. To turn off
Active ECO, press the Active ECO
button again.
If Active ECO is turned off, the sys- tem will return to normal mode.
Limitation of Active ECO oper-
ation:
If the following conditions occur while
Active ECO is operating, the system
operation is limited even though
there is no change in the ECO indi-
cator.
When the coolant temperature islow: The system will be limited until
engine temperature becomes nor-
mal.
When driving up a hill: The system will be limited to gain power when
driving uphill because the engine
torque is required.
When using sports mode: The sys- tem will be limited according to the
manually selected gear.
When the accelerator pedal is deeply depressed for a few sec-
onds: The system will be limited,
judging that the driver desires addi-
tional acceleration.
