✽NOTICE
If there is heavy accumulation of snow
or ice on the windshield, defrost the
windshield for about 10 minutes, or
until the snow and/or ice is removed
before using the windshield wipers to
ensure proper operation.
✽NOTICE
• When you operate the wipers, if your
vehicle has a problem in any part of
the wiper operation system, the wiper
may operate in the LO (1) mode
regardless of the wiper switch posi-
tion. In this case, have your vehicle
checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer as soon as possible.
• When the ignition key is removed, the
wiper blade sometimes may move
slightly to be properly positioned for
reducing the deterioration of the
windshield wipers.

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.

Cruise control will be canceled
when;
• Depressing the brake pedal.
• Shifting the shift lever into N (Neutral) or
R (Reverse).
• Pressing the CANCEL switch located
on the steering wheel.
• Decreasing the vehicle speed to less
than approximately 30 km/h (18.6
mph).
• Operating the parking brake pedal or
the EPB switch (if equipped). Do not
operate the parking brake while driving
except in an emergency situation.
• The ESP or ABS is operating.
• Downshifting to the 2nd gear with
sports mode.• Decreasing the vehicle speed to less
than approximately 10 km/h (6.2 mph)
as the vehicle in front of you.
• Accelerating the vehicle speed to more
than approximately 180 km/h (113
mph).
• The ESP is turned off.
• The sensor or the cover is dirty or
obscured with foreign matter.
Each of these actions will cancel smart
cruise control operation (the SET indica-
tor light, set speed and vehicle to vehicle
distance on the LCD screen will go off),
but it will not turn the system off. If you
wish to resume smart cruise control
operation, push the RES+ switch located
on your steering wheel. You will return to
your previously preset speed.
E090600ABH
To resume cruise control set
speed:
If any method other than the CRUISE
switch was used to cancel cruising speed
and the system is still activated, the most
recent set speed will automatically
resume when the RES+ switch is
pushed.
It will not resume, however, if the vehicle
speed has dropped below approximately
10 km/h (6.2 mph) when the sensor
detects the vehicle ahead or if the vehicle
speed has dropped below approximately
30 km/h (18.6 mph) when there is no
vehicle in front of your vehicle.
CAUTION
If the sensor cover is dirty or
obstructed, the smart cruise control
will cancel automatically.

Limitations of the system
The smart cruise control system may
have limits to its ability to detect distance
to the vehicle ahead due to road and traf-
fic conditions.
On curves
• On curves, the smart cruise control
system may not detect a moving vehi-
cle 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 sud-
denly.
• Select the appropriate set speed on
curves and apply the brakes or accel-
erator pedal if necessary.
OBH058029
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-
tion, the smart cruise control sys-
tem will not operate correctly.
If this occurs, have your vehicle
checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer as soon as pos-
sible.
• Use only a genuine HYUNDAI
sensor cover for your vehicle.

• 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 operation of the smart cruise con-
trol.E150902ABH
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 accel-
erator pedal if necessary.
E150903ABH
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.

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 loadsA 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 the steering wheel is operating
- When driving to one side of the lane
- When driving on narrow lanes or on
curves
Apply the brakes or accelerator pedal if
necessary.
WARNING
• The vehicle cannot be stopped by
using the smart cruise control
system.
If an emergency stop is neces-
sary, you must apply the brakes.
• Keep a safe distance according
to road conditions and vehicle
speed. If the vehicle to vehicle
distance is too close during a
high-speed driving, it may cause
a serious collision.
• The smart cruise control system
can not recognize a stopped
vehicle, pedestrians or an
oncoming vehicle. Always look
ahead cautiously to prevent
unexpected and sudden situa-
tions from occurring.
• In front of you, vehicles moving
with a frequent lane change may
cause a delay in the system's
reaction or may cause the system
to react to a vehicle actually in an
adjacent lane. Always look ahead
cautiously to prevent unexpected
and sudden situations from
occurring.

lane or if the vehicle speed does
not exceed 60km/h, the LDWS
won't warn you even though the
vehicle leaves the lane.
• If your vehicle has window tint or
other types of coating on the
front windshield, the LDWS may
not work properly.
• Do not let water or any kind of liq-
uid come in contact with the
LDWS sensor.
• Do not remove the LDWS parts
and do not affect the sensor by a
strong impact.
• Do not put objects that reflect
light on the dash board.

What to do in an emergency
8 6
Always check the TPMS malfunction
telltale after replacing one or more
tires or wheels on your vehicle to
ensure that the replacement or alter-
nate tires and wheels allow the
TPMS to continue to function proper-
ly.
✽NOTICE
If the TPMS, Low Tire Pressure tell-
tale do not illuminate for 3 seconds
when the ignition switch is turned to
the ON position or engine is run-
ning, or if they remain illuminated
after coming on for approximately 3
seconds, take your car to your near-
est authorized HYUNDAI dealer
and have the system checked.
F060100ABH-EE
Low tire pressure tell-
tale
Low tire pressure posi-
tion telltale
When the tire pressure monitoring
system warning indicators are illumi-
nated, one or more of your tires is
significantly under-inflated. The low
tire pressure position telltale (supple-
mental) will indicate which tire is sig-
nificantly under-inflated by illuminat-
ing the corresponding position on the
LCD screen (if equipped).
If either telltale illuminates, immedi-
ately reduce your speed, avoid hard
cornering 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 and Position
telltale will remain on until you have
the low pressure tire repaired and
replaced on the vehicle.
✽NOTICE
The spare tire is not equipped with a
tire pressure sensor.
