Theft-Deterrent System*
▼Theft-Deterrent System
If the theft-deterrent system detects an
inappropriate entry int
o the vehicle, which
could result in the vehicle or its contents
being stolen, the alarm alerts the
surrounding area of an abnormality by
sounding the horn and flashing the hazard
warning lights.

The system will not function unless it's
properly armed. So when you leave the
vehicle, follow the arming procedure
correctly.
▼ Operation
System triggering conditions
The horn sounds intermittently and the
hazard warning lights flash for about 30
seconds when the sys
tem is triggered by

Unlocking a door with the auxiliary key,
door lock switch, or an inside door-lock
knob.
Forcing open a door, the hood or the
liftgate/trunk lid.
Opening the hood by operating the hood
release handle.
Switching the ignition ON without using
the push button start.
If the system is triggered again, the lights
and horn will activate until the driver's
door or the liftgate/trunk lid is unlocked
with the transmitter.
(With the advanced keyless function)
The lights and horn can also be
deactivated by touching the sensing area
of the door release touch sensor.
NOTE
If the battery goes dead while the
theft-deterrent system is armed, the horn

If the AUTOHOLD switch is pressed
without depressing the brake pedal
while AUTOHOLD is operating
(AUTOHOLD active indicator light in
instrument cluster is turned on), the
message “Depress Brake Pedal and
Operate Switch to Release” is indicated
on the multi-information display to
notify the driver to depress the brake
pedal.
If any of the follow ing conditions occurs
while the AUTOHOLD function is
operating (AUTOHOLD active indicator
light is turned on), the parking brake is
applied automatically and the
AUTOHOLD function turns off. For the
Electric Parking Brake (EPB)
operation, refer to the Electric Parking
Brake (EPB) on page 4-64.
The ignition is switched OFF.
There is a problem with the
AUTOHOLD function.
Hill Launch Assist (HLA)
▼ Hill Launch Assist (HLA)
The HLA functions to assist in
accelerating the vehicle from a stop on
slopes. When releasing the brake pedal
and depressing the accelerator pedal to
accelerate the vehicle from a stop while on
a slope, the function prevents the vehicle
from rolling. The HLA also operates when
reversing on a slope.
The braking force is maintained
automatically after releasing the brake
pedal on a steep slope.
For manual transmission vehicles, the
HLA operates when the vehicle is tilted
rearward with the shift lever in a forward
gear, and operates when the vehicle is
tilted forward with th
e shift lever in the R
position.
For automatic transmi ssion vehicles, the
HLA operates when the vehicle is tilted
rearward with the s elector lever in a
forward gear, and operates when the
vehicle is tilted forward with the selector
lever in the R position.
WA R N I N G
Do not rely completely on HLA:
HLA is an auxiliary device for accelerating
from a stop on a slope. The system only
operates for about 2 seconds and
therefore, relying only on the system, when
accelerating from a stop is dangerous
because the vehicle may move (roll)
unexpectedly and cause an accident.

Traffic Sign Recognition System (TSR)*
▼Traffic Sign Recognition System (TSR)
The TSR helps prevent the driver
from overlooking traffic signs, and provides support for
safer driving by displaying traffic signs on the active driving display/instrument cluster
which are recognized by the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) or rec orded in the navigation
system while the v ehicle is driven.
The TSR displays the speed limit (including auxiliary signs), do not enter, and traffic stop
signs.
If the vehicle speed exceeds the speed limit sign indicated in the active driving display/
instrument cluster while the vehicle is driven, the system noti fies the driver using the
indication in the active driving display/instrument cluster and a warning sound.

Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA)
If there is the possibility of a collision
with an approaching vehicle while the
rear view/rear wide view is displayed, a
warning is displayed on the center
display.
The Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA)
uses rear side radar sensor to detect
vehicles approaching from the rear left
and right sides of the vehicle, and it
assists the driver in checking the rear of
the vehicle while reversing by flashing
the Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM)
warning lights and activating the
warning sound.
Refer to Rear Cross Traffic Alert
(RCTA) on page 4-114.
360°View Monitor Range
1. Cameras
2. Ultrasonic sensors
3. Front/Rear side radar sensors
WA R N I N G
Always confirm the safety of the area
around the vehicle with the mirrors and
directly with your eyes when driving:
The 360°View Monitor is an auxiliary device
which assists the driver in checking the
safety of the area around the vehicle.
The shooting range of the cameras and
detection range of the sensors are limited.
For example, the areas in black at the front
and rear of the vehicle image and the
seams where each of the camera images
merge are blind spots where an obstruction
may not be visible. In addition, the
extended vehicle width lines and projected
vehicle path lines are only to be used as
references, and the images on the screen
may differ from the actual conditions.
CAUTION
 Do not use the 360°View Monitor under
any of the following conditions.
 Icy or snow-covered roads.
 Tire chains or a te mporary spare tire is
installed.
 The front doors or the rear doors is not
fully closed.
 The vehicle is on a road incline.
 The door mirrors are retracted.
 Do not hit the front/rear camera, front/
rear bumper, and door mirrors forcefully.
The camera position or installation angle
may shift.
 The cameras are of a waterproof
structure. Do not disassemble, modify, or
remove a camera.
