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

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
paint anything on the sensor

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

tem cannot guarantee the

uation.
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.

tem cannot recognize a
stopped vehicle, pedestrians
or an oncoming vehicle.
Always look ahead cautiously
to prevent unexpected and
sudden situations from occur-
ring.

unexpected and sudden situa-
tions from occurring.
• The smart cruise control sys-
tem is not a substitute for safe
driving practices but a con-
venience function only. It is
the responsibility of the driver
to always check the speed
and the distance to the vehi-
cle ahead.
• Always be aware of the select-
ed speed and vehicle to vehi-
cle distance.

Driving your vehicle
AVSM detects the distance from the
vehicle ahead with the sensor, to
warn you before collision and protect
you in certain hazardous situations
by using warning message, warning
sound and seat belt vibration (if
equipped).
• If the AVSM senses the object
ahead too near the vehicle and if
driver's operating of the brake
pedal or the steering wheel should
be needed, the warning light illumi-
nates.
Immediately reduce your speed.
• If the AVSM senses more danger-
ous, the warning sound also oper-
ates and the seat belt vibrates.
Immediately reduce your speed.
ADVANCED VEHICLE SAFETY MANAGEMENT (AVSM) (IF EQUIPPED)
CAUTION
Always check the road condi-
tions to prevent danger even if
the warning light does not illu-
minate, the warning sound does
not operate or the seat belt does
not vibrate.
