To resume cruising speed at
more than approximately 6 mph
(10 km/h):

ing speed and the system is still activat-
ed, the most recent set speed will auto-
matically resume when the RES+ switch
is pushed.
It will not resume, however, if the vehicle
speed has dropped below approximately
6 mph (10 km/h) when the sensor
detects the vehicle ahead or if the vehicle
speed has dropped below approximately
19 mph (30 km/h) when there is no vehi-
cle in front of your vehicle.

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.

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.

Driving 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.

- 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:

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.
