Driving your vehicle
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 radar may not immediately detect 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.
If a faster vehicle which moves into your lane, your vehicle will acceler-
ate to the set speed.
Vehicle recognition
Some vehicles in your lane cannot
be recognized by the sensor:
- 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
luggage compartment
- While the steering wheel is operat- ing
- When driving to one side of the lane
- When driving on narrow lanes or on curves
Apply the brake or accelerator pedal
if necessary.

Your vehicle may accelerate when
a vehicle ahead of you moves out
of the sensor's range and is not
detected.
When you are warned that the vehicle ahead of you is not detect-
ed, drive with caution. When driving in stop-and-go traffic,
and a stopped vehicle in front of
you merges out of the lane, the
system may not immediately
detect the new vehicle that is now
in front of you. In this case, you
must maintain a safe braking dis-
tance, and if necessary, depress
the brake pedal to reduce your
driving speed in order to maintain a
safe distance. Always look out for pedestrians
when your vehicle is maintaining a
distance with the vehicle ahead.

WARNING
When using Smart Cruise
Control (SCC) system, take the
following precautions:
If an emergency stop is nec-essary, you must apply the
brakes. SCC system cannot
guarantee the stop for every
emergency situation.
Keep a safe distance accord- ing to road conditions and
vehicle speed. If the vehicle to
vehicle distance is too close
during high-speed driving, a
serious collision may result.
Always maintain sufficient braking distance and deceler-
ate your vehicle by applying
the brakes if necessary.
Smart Cruise Control (SCC) system may not recognize a
stopped vehicle, pedestrians or
an oncoming vehicle.
(Continued)
(Continued)Always look ahead cautiously
in order to react to unexpected
and sudden situations.
Vehicles moving in front of you making frequent lane changes
may cause a delay in the sys-
tem's reaction or may cause
the system to react to a vehicle
actually in an adjacent lane.
Always drive cautiously in
order to react to unexpected
and sudden situations.
Always be aware of the select- ed speed and vehicle to vehi-
cle distance. The driver
should not solely rely on the
system but always pay atten-
tion to driving conditions and
control vehicle speed.
The Smart Cruise Control sys- tem may not recognize com-
plex driving situations, so
always pay attention to driv-
ing conditions and control
your vehicle speed.

Driving your vehicle
The system responds to curveslocated on the destination set in
the navigation. If the destination is
not set, the system will respond to
road information of the expected
route.✽ ✽ NOTICE
• Navigation-based Smart Cruise
Control is limited in other coun-
tries.
• The system may not operate due to the existence of leading vehicles
and the driving situations of the
vehicle.
• The system operates regardless of whether the sharp curve warning
appears on the navigation, but the
time gap could occur between the
warning and system operation.
• The navigation only provides curve information within permit-
ted speed ranges so that the system
may not decrease its speed during
extreme over-speed driving.
• The system is not designed to work on highways other than mentioned
as a controlled access road.
• The system automatically cancels when you leave the highway. (Continued)(Continued)
• Highway Driving Assist and
Navigation-based Smart Cruise
Control uses the same “AUTO”
symbol that indicates the status of
the system. Therefore, even if the
Navigation-based Cruise Control
is off, the “AUTO” symbol may be
displayed.
• If there is a problem with Navigation-based Smart Cruise
Control, the system cannot be acti-
vated in the AVN system screen,
and the “AUTO” symbol will turn
off. However, if Highway Driving
Assist is activated, the “AUTO”
symbol will be displayed.
• After you pass through a tollgate on a highway, the system operates
based on the first lane. If you enter
one of the other lanes, the system
might not properly decelerate.
• If you over speed, the system may not decelerate the vehicle in a
curve.
• Deceleration by the system may not be sufficient if the driver accel-
erates while the system is operat-
ing, (Continued)
