- The vehicle in front is driving erratical-ly.
- The vehicle drives through a construc- tion area, on an unpaved road, or
above metal materials, such as a rail-
way.
- The vehicle drives inside a building, such as a basement parking lot.
- 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 premature-
ly.
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 maintain
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 recognizing the vehicle in front
in the same lane. It may unnecessarily
produce the warning message and the
warning 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 decel-
eration.
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.

Detecting pedestrians
The sensor may be limited when:
- The pedestrian is not fully detected bythe 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 background,
making it difficult to be detected by the
camera recognition 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 road at night).
- It is difficult to detect and distinguish the pedestrian from other objects in the
surroundings, for example, when there
is a group of pedestrians or a large
crowd.Information
In some instances, the AEB system may be
cancelled when subjected to electromag-
netic 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

Do not use the Automatic
Emergency Braking system when
towing a vehicle. Application of
the AEB system while towing
may adversely affect the safety of
your vehicle or the towing vehi-
cle.
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 clear-
ance.
The AEB system is designed to
detect and monitor the vehicle
ahead or detect a pedestrian in
the roadway through radar sig-
nals and camera recognition. It is
not designed to detect bicycles,
motorcycles, 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

Low Tire Pressure
Telltale
Low Tire Pressure LCD
Display with Position Indicator
When the tire pressure monitoring
system warning indicators are illumi-
nated and the warning message is
displayed on the cluster LCD display,
one or more of your tires is signifi-
cantly under-inflated. The LCD posi-
tion indicator will indicate which tire
is significantly under-inflated by illu-
minating the corresponding position
light. If any of your tire pressures are indi-
cated as being low, immediately
reduce your speed, avoid hard cor-
nering, and anticipate increased
stopping distances. You should stop
and check your tires as soon as pos-
sible. Inflate the tires to the proper
pressure as indicated on the vehi-
cle’s placard or tire inflation pressure
label located on the driver's side cen-
ter pillar outer panel.
If you cannot reach a service station
or if the tire cannot hold the newly
added air, replace the low pressure
tire with the spare tire.
The Low Tire Pressure LCD position
indicator will remain on and the
TPMS Malfunction Indicator may
blink for one minute and then remain
illuminated until you have the low
pressure tire repaired and replaced
on the vehicle.

tire is replaced with the spare tire,
the Low Tire Pressure LCD position
indicator will remain on. Also, the
TPMS Malfunction Indicator will illu-
minate after blinking for one minute if
the vehicle is driven at speed above
15.5 mph (25 km/h) for approximate-
ly 20 minutes.Once the original tire equipped with
a tire pressure monitoring sensor is
reinflated to the recommended pres-
sure and reinstalled on the vehicle,
the Low Tire Pressure LCD position
indicator and TPMS Malfunction
Indicator will go off within a few min-
utes of driving.
If the indicators do not disappear
after a few minutes, please visit an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
