Warning Light and Message
If there is a malfunction with the
LDWS, the indicator on the cluster
will illuminate yellow. Additionally, a
message that reads, "Check LDWS",will appear on the cluster LCD dis-
play. After the message disappears,
the master warning light ( ) will
illuminate.
Take your vehicle to an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer and have the sys-
tem checked.
The LDWS does not operate when:
The driver turns on the turn signalto change lanes or operates the
hazard warning flasher.
The camera recognition system detects that the vehicle is driving
on the lane lines.
Information
Always operate the turn signal before
changing lanes.
Limitations of the system
The LDWS may operate prematurely
even if the vehicle does not depart
from the intended lane, OR, the
LDWS may not warn you if the vehi-
cle leaves the intended lane under
the following circumstances:
The lanes ahead are not visibledue to rain, snow, water on the road, damaged or stained road
surface, or other factors
The brightness outside changes suddenly such as when entering or
exiting a tunnel
The brightness outside is too low such as when the headlamps are
not on at night or the vehicle isgoing through a tunnel
It is difficult to distinguish the lane marking from the road surface or
the lane marking is faded or not
clearly marked
Driving on a steep grade or over a hill, or when driving on a curvedroad

Cruise Control operation
1. CRUISE indicator
2. SET indicator
The Cruise Control system allows
you to drive at speeds above 20 mph(30 km/h) without depressing the
accelerator pedal.
Information
 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.
 Before activating the cruise control function, the system will check to
verify that the brake switch is oper-
ating normally. Depress the brake
pedal at least once after turning ON
the ignition or starting the engine.

Take the following precautions:
If the Cruise Control is left on,
("CRUISE" indicator light in
the instrument cluster is illu-
minated) the Cruise Control
can be activated unintention-
ally. Keep the Cruise Control
system off ("CRUISE" indica-tor light OFF) when the Cruise
Control is not in use, to avoid
inadvertently setting a speed.
Use the Cruise Control sys-
tem only when traveling on
open highways in good
weather.
Do not use the Cruise Control
when it may be unsafe to keep
the vehicle at a constantspeed:
- When driving in heavy traffic
or when traffic conditions make it difficult to drive at aconstant speed
- When driving on rainy, icy, or snow-covered roads
(Continued)
(Continued)- When driving on hilly orwindy roads
- When driving in windy areasWARNING

Driving your vehicle
To set Cruise Control speed
1. Press the CRUISE button on thesteering wheel to turn the system
on. The "CRUISE" indicator will
illuminate.
2. Accelerate to the desired speed, which must be more than 20 mph(30 km/h). 3. Push the toggle switch (1) down
(SET-), and release it. The SET
indicator light will illuminate.
4. Release the accelerator pedal.
Information
On a steep slope, the vehicle may
slightly slow down or speed up, while
driving uphill or downhill.
To increase Cruise Control speed
Push the toggle switch (1) up (RES+) and hold it, while monitor-
ing the SET speed on the instru-
ment cluster.
Release the toggle switch when
the desired speed is shown and
the vehicle will accelerate to thatspeed.
Push the toggle switch (1) up (RES+) and release it immediately.
The cruising speed will increase1.0 mph (1.6 km/h) each time the
toggle switch is operated in this
manner.

Hazardous driving conditions
When hazardous driving elements
are encountered such as water,
snow, ice, mud and sand, take the
below suggestions:
Drive cautiously and keep a longerbraking distance.
Avoid abrupt braking or steering.
When your vehicle is stuck in snow, mud, or sand, use second gear.
Accelerate slowly to avoid unnec-
essary wheel spin.
Put sand, rock salt, tire chains or other non-slip materials under the
wheels to provide additional trac-
tion while the vehicle becomes
stuck in ice, snow, or mud.
Rocking the vehicle
If it is necessary to rock the vehicle
to free it from snow, sand, or mud,
first turn the steering wheel right and
left to clear the area around your
front wheels. Then, shift back and
forth between R (Reverse) and a for-
ward gear.
Try to avoid spinning the wheels, and
do not race the engine.
To prevent transmission wear, wait
until the wheels stop spinning before
shifting gears. Release the accelera-tor pedal while shifting, and press
lightly on the accelerator pedal while
the transmission is in gear. Slowly
spinning the wheels in forward and
reverse directions causes a rocking
motion that may free the vehicle.
SSPP EECCIIAA LL DD RRIIVV IINN GG CC OO NNDDIITT IIOO NNSS
Downshifting with an automatic transmission while driving on
slippery surfaces can cause an
accident. The sudden change intire speed could cause the tires
to skid. Be careful when down-
shifting on slippery surfaces.
WARNING
If the vehicle is stuck and
excessive wheel spin occurs,the temperature in the tires can
increase very quickly. If the tires
become damaged, a tire blow
out or tire explosion can occur.
This condition is dangerous -
you and others may be injured.
Do not attempt this procedure if
people or objects are anywhere
near the vehicle.
If you attempt to free the vehicle,
the vehicle can overheat quickly,
possibly causing an engine
compartment fire or other dam-
age. Try to avoid spinning the
wheels as much as possible to
prevent overheating of either the
tires or the engine. DO NOT
allow the vehicle to spin the
wheels above 35 mph (56 km/h).
