SMART mode
SMART mode selects the
proper driving mode
among ECO, NORMAL,
and SPORT by judging
the driver’s driving habits
(i.e. mild or dynamic)
from the brake pedal
depression or the steer-
ing wheel operation.
Press the DRIVE MODE button to activate SMART mode. When
SMART mode is activated, the indi-
cator illuminates on the instrument
cluster.
The indicator illuminates in green, when the driver's driving is catego-
rized to be mild. It illuminates in
white, when the driver's driving is
categorized to be normal. It illumi-
nates in yellow, when the driver's
driving is categorized to be dynam-
ic during abrupt braking or sharp
curving.
The vehicle starts in SMART mode again, when the engine was turned
OFF in SMART mode.
SMART mode automatically con- trols the vehicle driving, such as
gear shifting patterns, engine
torque, riding quality (if equipped
with the electronic suspension sys-
tem), and power distribution (if
equipped with the All-Wheel Drive
(AWD) system), in accordance with
the driver’s driving habits.Information
• When you mildly drive the vehiclein SMART mode, the driving mode
changes to ECO mode to improve
fuel efficiency. However, the actual
fuel efficiency may differ in accor-
dance with your driving situations
(i.e. upward/downward slope, vehi-
cle deceleration/acceleration).
• When you dynamically drive the vehicle in SMART mode by abrupt-
ly decelerating or sharply turning,
the driving mode changes to
SPORT mode. However, it may
adversely affect fuel economy.
Various driving situations, which
you may encounter in SMART
mode
The driving mode automaticallychanges to ECO mode after a cer-
tain period of time, when you gen-
tly depress the accelerator pedal
(Your driving is categorized to be
mild.).
The driving mode automatically changes from SMART ECO mode
to SMART NORMAL mode after a
certain period of time, when you
sharply or repetitively depress the
accelerator pedal.
The driving mode automatically changes to SMART NORMAL
mode with the same driving pat-
terns, when the vehicle starts to
drive on an upward slope of a cer-
tain angle. The driving mode auto-
matically returns to SMART ECO
mode, when the vehicle enters a
leveled road.

Driving your vehicle
The driving mode automatically changes to SMART SPORT, when
you abruptly accelerate the vehicle
or repetitively operate the steering
wheel (Your driving is categorized
to be sporty.). In this mode, your
vehicle drives in a lower gear for
abrupt accelerating/decelerating
and increases the engine brake
performance.
You may still sense the engine braking performance, even when
you release the accelerator pedal
in SMART SPORT mode. It is
because your vehicle remains in
lower gear over a certain period of
time for next acceleration. Thus, it
is a normal driving situation, not
indicating any malfunction.
The driving mode automatically changes to SMART SPORT mode
only in harsh driving situations. In
most of the normal driving situa-
tions, the driving mode sets to be
either in SMART ECO mode or in
SMART NORMAL mode.
Limitation of SMART mode
The SMART mode may be limited in
following situations. (The OFF indica-
tor illuminates in those situations.)
The driver manually moves theshift lever :
It deactivates SMART mode. The
vehicle drives, as the driver manu-
ally moves the shift lever.
The cruise control is activated : The cruise control system may
deactivate the SMART mode when
the vehicle is controlled by the set
speed of the smart cruise control
system. (SMART mode is not
deactivated just by activating the
smart cruise control system.)
The transmission oil temperature is either extremely low or extremely
high :
The SMART mode can be active in
most of the normal driving situa-
tions. However, an extremely high/
low transmission oil temperature
may temporarily deactivate the
SMART mode, because the trans-
mission condition is out of normal
operation condition.

SPORT mode
SPORT mode manages
the driving dynamics by
automatically adjusting
the steering effort, and
the engine and transmission control
logic for enhanced driver perform-
ance.
When SPORT mode is selected by pressing the DRIVE MODE button,
the SPORT indicator (yellow color)
will illuminate.
Whenever the engine is restarted, the Drive Mode will revert back to
SMART mode. If SPORT mode is
desired, re-select SPORT mode
from the DRIVE MODE button.
When SPORT mode is activated: - The engine rpm will tend toremain raised over a certain
length of time even after releas-
ing the accelerator
- Upshifts are delayed when accel- erating
Information
In SPORT mode, the fuel efficiency
may decrease.
Virtual engine sounds are gener-
ated from the exterior amplifiers.
Pay extreme caution while replac-
ing amplifier components. The
use of any after-market compo-
nents or speakers may damage
the exterior amplifiers causing the
virtual engine sounds not to prop-
erly operate.
ECO mode
When the Drive Mode is
set to ECO mode, the
engine and transmission
control logic are changed
to maximize fuel efficiency.
When ECO mode is selected by pressing the DRIVE MODE button,
the ECO indicator (green color) will
illuminate.
If the vehicle is set to ECO mode, when the engine is turned OFF
and restarted the Drive Mode set-
ting will remain in ECO mode.
Information
Fuel efficiency depends on the driver's
driving habit and road condition.

Blind Spot Detection (BSD) /
Lane Change Assist (LCA)
Operating conditions
To operate:
Press the BSD switch with the
Engine Start/Stop button in the ON
position.
The indicator on the BSD switch will
illuminate.
To cancel:
Press the BSD switch again. The
indicator on the switch will go off.
Information
• If the Engine Start/Stop button ispressed OFF and then ON again, the
BSD system returns to the previous
state.
• When the system is turned on, the warning light will illuminate for 3
seconds on the outer side view mir-
ror. The system will activate when:
1. The system is on.
2. The vehicle speed is above about
20 mph (30 km/h).
3. An oncoming vehicle is detected in the blind spot area.
The initial warning alert time for the Lane Change Assist can be adjust-
ed. Go to the 'User Settings →
Driving Assist and select Lane
Change Assist' on the LCD display.
You may select between the two
stages you prefer.
- Normal/Late
First stage alert
If a vehicle is detected within the
boundary of the system, a warning
light will illuminate on the outer side
view mirror and the head-up display
(if equipped).
Once the detected vehicle is no
longer within the blind spot area, the
warning will turn off according to the
