In heavy traffic
Use switch or pedal to accelerate
In traffic, your vehicle will stop if the
vehicle 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 up the toggle switch (RES+)
to start driving. If you push the smart cruise control
toggle switch (RES+ or SET-) while
Auto Hold and smart cruise control
is operating, the Auto Hold will be
released regardless of accelerator
pedal operation and the vehicle will
start to move. The AUTO HOLD
indicator changes from green to
white. (if equipped with EPB
(Electronic Parking Brake))
Radar to detect distance to the
vehicle ahead
The sensor detects 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 sensor clean.

To adjust the sensitivity of
smart cruise control system
The sensitivity of vehicle speed
when following the front vehicle to
maintain the set distance can be
adjusted. Go to User Settings (Driver
Assistance) and select SCC
Reaction (Smart Cruise Control). You
may select one of the three stages
you prefer.
Slow:
Vehicle speed following the front
vehicle to maintain the set distance
is slower than normal speed.
Normal: Vehicle speed following the front
vehicle to maintain the set distance
is normal
Fast: Vehicle speed following the front
vehicle to maintain the set distance
is faster than normal speed.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
The system remembers the last
selected mode.
To convert to cruise control
mode:
The driver may choose to only use
the cruise control mode (speed con-
trol function) by doing as follows:
CAUTION - Sensor

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".
When the system is canceled using
the CRUISE button or the CRUISE
button is used after the engine is
turned on, the Smart Cruise Control
mode will turn on.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
The Smart Cruise Control system may not immediately detect a mov-
ing vehicle in your lane, and then
your vehicle could accelerate to
the set speed. Also, the vehicle
speed will rapidly decrease when
the vehicle ahead is recognized
suddenly.
Select the appropriate set speed on curves and adjust your vehicle
speed by depressing the accelera-
tor or brake pedal according to the
road and driving conditions ahead.
OUM054040L
WARNING
When using the cruise control
mode, you must manually
assess the distance to other
vehicles as the system will not
automatically brake to slow
down for other vehicles.

Your vehicle speed can be reduced
due to a vehicle in the adjacent
lane. Adjust your speed by depress-
ing the brake pedal or applying the
accelerator pedal according to road
and driving conditions ahead.
Check to be sure that the road con-
ditions permit safe operation of the
smart cruise control.
On inclines
During uphill or downhill driving,the smart cruise control system
may not immediately detect a mov-
ing vehicle in your lane, and may
cause your vehicle to accelerate to
the set speed. Also, the vehicle
speed will rapidly down when the
vehicle ahead is recognized sud-
denly.
Select the appropriate set speed on inclines and adjust your vehicle
speed by depressing the accelera-
tor or brake pedal according to the
road and traffic conditions ahead.
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.

Driving your vehicle
If a vehicle which moves into yourlane is faster than your vehicle,
your vehicle will accelerate to the
selected speed.
Your vehicle may accelerate whena 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
liftgate
- While making turns by steering
- When driving to one side of the lane
- When driving on narrow lanes or on curves
Adjust your vehicle speed by
depressing the brake pedal accord-
ing to the road and driving conditions
ahead. When vehicles are at a standstill and
the vehicle in front of you changes to
the next lane, be careful when your
vehicle starts to move because it may
not recognize the stopped vehicle in
front of you.
In this case, you must maintain a
safe braking distance, and if neces-
sary, 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 dis-
tance with the vehicle ahead.

Driving your vehicle
Always be cautious for vehicles that
are taller with higher clearance, or
vehicles carrying loads that stick out
of the back of the vehicle.

WARNING - Inclines &Towing
Do not use smart cruise control
system on steep inclines or
when towing another vehicle or
trailer since such extreme load-
ing can interfere with your vehi-
cle's ability to maintain the
selected speed.WARNING
- Safe Use of smart cruise control system
The smart cruise control system
is a supplemental system. You
must maintain careful observa-
tion of the roadway in front and
around you and maintain control
of your vehicle and distance
around other vehicles as you
normally would. For example,
this will require you to apply the
brakes as needed when coming
upon a slower moving vehicle, or
when a vehicle from another lane
drives quickly in front of you.

(Continued)
Always be aware of the select-
ed speed and vehicle to vehi-
cle distance.
Always maintain sufficient braking distance and deceler-
ate your vehicle by applying
the brakes if necessary.(Continued)
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
suddensituations from occur-
ring.
When other vehicles are changing lanes in front of you
frequently, the smart cruise
control system may not oper-
ate appropriately. Always look
ahead cautiously to prevent
unexpected and sudden situa-
tions from occurring.
(Continued)WARNING
After starting the engine,please stop for several sec-
onds. If system initialization is
not completed, the smart
cruise control system does
not normally operate.
After starting the engine, if any objects are not detected
or the sensor cover is
obscured with foreign sub-
stances, there is a possibility
that the smart cruise control
system may not work.
The following conditions may cause a malfunction: over-
loading the liftgate, suspen-
sion modification, tire
replacement with unautho-
rized tires or tires with differ-
ent tread wear and pressure
levels.
The Smart Cruise Control sys- tem may not be able to com-
pletely stop the vehicle or
avoid a collision in every situ-
ation.
