The cruise control system allows you
to program the vehicle to maintain a
constant speed without pressing the
accelerator pedal.
This system is designed to function
above approximately 40 km/h (25
mph) and below approximately 180
km/h (113 mph).
✽NOTICE
During normal cruise control opera-
tion, when the SET switch is activat-
ed or reactivated after applying the
brakes, the cruise control will ener-
gize after approximately 3 seconds.
This delay is normal.
CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING
• If the cruise control is left on,
(cruise indicator light in the
instrument cluster illuminat-
ed) the cruise control can be
activated unintentionally.
Keep the cruise control sys-
tem off (cruise indicator light
off) when the cruise control is
not in use, to avoid inadver-
tently setting a speed.
• Use the cruise control system
only when traveling on open
highways in good weather.
• Do not use the cruise control
when it may not be safe to
keep the vehicle at a constant
speed, for instance, driving in
heavy or varying traffic, or on
slippery (rainy, icy or snow-
covered) or winding roads or
over 6% up-hill or down-hill
roads.
• Pay particular attention to the
driving conditions whenever
using the cruise control system.

more than approximately 40 km/h
(25 mph):
If any method other than the
CRUISE switch was used to cancel
cruising speed and the system is still
activated, the most recent set speed
will automatically resume when the
RES+ switch is pushed.
It will not resume, however, if the
vehicle speed has dropped below
approximately 40 km/h (25 mph).

SCC (Smart cruise control) mal-
function indicator
The warning message/
indicator illuminates
when the vehicle to
vehicle distance control
system is not function-
ing normally.
We recommend that the
system be checked by
an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
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
• Do not install accessories
around the sensor and do not
replace the bumper by your-
self. It may interfere with the
sensor performance.
• Always keep the sensor and
bumper clean.
• To prevent sensor cover dam-
age from occurring, wash the
car with a soft cloth.
• Do not damage the sensor or
sensor area by a strong
impact. If the sensor moves
slightly off position, the smart
cruise control system will not
operate correctly.
If this occurs, we recommend
that the system be checked by
an authorized HYUNDAI deal-
er.
• We recommend that the sen-
sor be replaced by an author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer. Do not

will be on but the system will not be
activated).
2.Pull the distance to distance switch
for more than 2 seconds.
3.Choose between "Smart cruise

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
• On curves, the smart cruise control
system may not detect a moving
vehicle in your lane, and then your
vehicle could accelerate to the set
speed. Also, the vehicle speed will
rapidly down 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 condition ahead and driving
condition.
WARNING
When using the cruise control
mode, you must manually
access the distance to other
vehicles as the system will not
automatically brake to slow
down for other vehicles.OBH058029
