Driving your vehicle
Your vehicle speed can be reduceddue 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 opera-
tion of the ASCC.

During uphill or downhill driving,the ASCC 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
accelerator pedal if necessary.

A vehicle which moves into yourlane from an adjacent lane cannot
be recognized by the sensor until it
is in the sensor's detection range.
The sensor may not detect imme- diately when a vehicle cuts in sud-
denly. Always pay attention to the
traffic, road and driving conditions.

This system detects the lane with the
sensor at the front windshield and
warns you when your vehicle leaves
the lane. The LDWS does not make the
vehicle change lanes. It is the dri-
ver's responsibility to always check
the road conditions.
If the sensor cannot detect the lane or if the vehicle speed does not
exceed 70km/h (43mph), the
LDWS won't warn you even though
the vehicle leaves the lane.
If your vehicle has window tint or other types of coating on the front
windshield, the LDWS may not
work properly.
Prevent damage to the LDWS sen- sor from water or any liquid.
Do not remove the LDWS parts and do not damage the sensor by
a strong impact.
Do not put objects that reflect light on the dash board.
Always check the road conditions for you may not hear the warning
chime because of audio, or exter-
nal noise.
LANE DEPARTURE WARNING SYSTEM (LDWS) (IF EQUIPPED)

WARNING - LDWS Alert
The LDWS is only intended to
provide you with information
regarding your vehicle's posi-
tion on the roadway. Upon
receiving an LDWS alert, you
must take the necessary steps
to maintain control of your vehi-

any steering inputs into the
vehicle for you. it can be dan-
gerous to make a large sudden
steering input in response to an
alert, since that could result in
loss of control.

The Blind Spot Detection System
(BSD) uses a radar sensor to alert
the driver.
It senses the rear side territory of the
vehicle and provides and indication
to the driver. (1) BSD (Blind Spot Detection)
The warning range depends on
your vehicle speed. However, if
your vehicle is about 10 km/h (6
mph) faster than the other vehi-
cle, the system will not warn you.
(2) LCA (Lane Change Assist) When a vehicle approaches you
at high speed, the system will
warn you.
(3) RCTA (Rear Cross Traffic Alert) When your vehicle moves rear-
ward, the sensor detects the
approaching vehicle in the left
and right side, the system will
warn you.

RCTA (Rear Cross Traffic Alert)
When your vehicle moves backwards
from a parking position, the sensor
detects approaching vehicles to the
left or right side direction and gives
information to the driver.
Operating conditions
The indicator on the switch will illu-
minate when the Blind Spot
Detection System (BSD) switch is
pressed with the Engine Start/Stop
Button ON.
The system will turn on and stand-
by to activate. The system operates when the
vehicle speed is below 10 km/h (6
mph) with the shift lever in R
(Reverse).
The RCTA (Rear Cross Traffic Alert) detecting range is 0.5m ~
20m based on the side direction. If
the approaching vehicle speed is
4 km/h (2.5 mph) ~ 36 km/h (22
mph) within sensing range, it is
detected. However, the system
sensing range is different base on
conditions. Always pay attention to
the surrounding.
