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.

decrease when the vehicle ahead
is recognized suddenly.

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 slower vehicle moves into your
lane, your speed may decrease to
maintain the distance to the vehicle
ahead.

your lane, your vehicle will acceler-
ate to the set speed.
