Limitations of the System
The Smart Cruise Control System
may have limits to its ability to detect
distance to the vehicle ahead due to
road and traffic conditions.
On curves
The Smart Cruise Control Systemmay not detect a moving vehicle in
your lane, and then your vehicle
could accelerate to the set speed.
Also, the vehicle speed will
decrease when the vehicle ahead
is recognized suddenly.
Select the appropriate set speed on curves and apply the brakes or
accelerator pedal if necessary.
Do not install accessories
around the radar and do not
replace the bumper by your-
self. It may interfere with the
radar performance.
Always keep the radar and
bumper clean.
To prevent radar cover dam-
age from occurring, wash the
car with a soft cloth.
Do not paint the radar cover.
Do not damage the radar or
radar area by a strong impact.
If the radar moves slightly off
position, the Smart Cruise
Control System will not oper-
ate correctly. If this occurs,
have your vehicle checked by
an authorized HYUNDAI deal-
er.
Use only a genuine HYUNDAI
radar cover for your vehicle.

Your vehicle speed can be reduced
due to a vehicle in the adjacent lane.
Apply the accelerator pedal and
select the appropriate set speed.
Check to be sure that the road con-
ditions permit safe operation of the
Smart Cruise Control.
On inclines
During uphill or downhill driving,the Smart Cruise Control System
may not detect a moving vehicle in
your lane, and cause your vehicle
to accelerate to the set speed.
Also, the vehicle speed will rapidly
decrease when the vehicle ahead
is recognized suddenly.
Select the appropriate set speed on inclines and apply the brake or
accelerator pedal if necessary.
Lane changing
A vehicle which moves into yourlane from an adjacent lane cannot
be recognized by the radar until it
is in the radar's detection range.
The radar may not detect immedi- ately when a vehicle cuts in sud-
denly. Always pay attention to the
traffic, road and driving conditions.
If a slower vehicle moves into your lane, your speed may decrease to
maintain the distance to the vehicle
ahead.
If a faster vehicle moves into your lane, your vehicle will accelerate to
the set speed.

cautions:
If an emergency stop is nec-
essary, you must apply the
brakes. The vehicle cannot be
stopped by using the Smart
Cruise Control System.

braking distance and deceler-
ate your vehicle by applying

WARNING (Continued)
Vehicles moving in front of you
with a frequent lane change
may cause a delay in the sys-
tem's reaction or may cause

actually in an adjacent lane.
Always drive cautiously to pre-
vent unexpected and sudden
situations from occurring.
Always be aware of the select-
ed speed and vehicle to vehi-
cle distance.
The Smart Cruise Control
System may not recognize
complex driving situations so
always pay attention to driv-
ing conditions and control
your vehicle speed.
