CAUTION
•Never place anything over the sen‐sor (1) located on the instrumentpanel. This will ensure better au‐to-light system control.
•Don’t clean the sensor using a win‐dow cleaner. The cleaner mayleave a light film which could inter‐fere with sensor operation.
•If your vehicle has window tint orother types of metallic coating onthe front windshield, the Autolight system may not work prop‐erly.
High beam operation
To turn on the high beam headlamp,
push the lever away from you. The lev‐ er will return to its original position.
The high beam indicator will light when
the headlight high beams are switched
on.
To prevent the battery from being dis‐ charged, do not leave the lights on for a
prolonged time while the engine is not
running.
WARNING
Do not use high beam when thereare other vehicles. Using high beamcould obstruct the other driver’s vi‐sion.
To flash the headlights, pull the lever
towards you. It will return to the nor‐ mal (low beam) position when released.
The headlight switch does not need to
be on to use this flashing feature.

The rain sensor (A) located on the up‐
per end of the windshield glass senses the amount of rainfall and controls the
wiping cycle for the proper interval.
The more it rains, the faster the wiper operates. When the rain stops, the wip‐
er stops.
To vary the speed setting, turn the
speed control knob (1).
If the wiper switch is set in AUTO mode when the ignition switch is ON, the wip‐
er will operate once to perform a self-
check of the system. Set the wiper to OFF (O) position when the wiper is not
in use.
CAUTION
When the ignition switch is ON andthe windshield wiper switch is placedin the AUTO mode, use caution in thefollowing situations to avoid any in‐jury to the hands or other parts ofthe body:•Do not touch the upper end of thewindshield glass facing the rainsensor.
•Do not wipe the upper end of thewindshield glass with a damp orwet cloth.
•Do not put pressure on the wind‐shield glass.
CAUTION
•When washing the vehicle, set thewiper switch in the OFF (O) posi‐tion to stop the auto wiper opera‐tion.The wiper may operate and bedamaged if the switch is set in theAUTO mode while washing the ve‐hicle.
(Continued)
(Continued)
•Do not remove the sensor coverlocated on the upper end of thepassenger side windshield glass.Damage to system parts could oc‐cur and may not be covered byyour vehicle warranty.
•When starting the vehicle in win‐ter, set the wiper switch in theOFF (O) position. Otherwise, wipersmay operate and ice may damagethe windshield wiper blades. Al‐ways remove all snow and ice anddefrost the windshield properlyprior to operating the windshieldwipers.
•When tinting the windshield, becareful of any fluid getting intothe sensor located in the top cen‐ter of the front windshield. It maydamage the related parts.

AUTONOMOUS EMERGENCY BRAKING (AEB) (IF EQUIPPED)
The AEB system is to reduce or to
avoid accident risk. It recognizes the
distance from the vehicle ahead or the pedestrian through the sensors (i.e. ra‐
dar and camera), and, if necessary,
warns the driver of accident risk with the warning message or the warning
alarms.
WARNING
Take the following precautions whenusing the Autonomous EmergencyBraking (AEB):•This system is only a supplemen‐tal system and it is not intendedto, nor does it replace the need forextreme care and attention of thedriver. The sensing range and ob‐jects detectable by the sensors arelimited. Pay attention to the roadconditions at all times.
•NEVER drive too fast in accordancewith the road conditions or whilecornering.
(Continued)
(Continued)
•Always drive cautiously to preventunexpected and sudden situationsfrom occurring. AEB does not stopthe vehicle completely and doesnot avoid collisions.

Driving your vehicle

• The AEB provides additional brakingpower for optimum braking perform‐
ance, when the driver depresses the brake pedal.
• The braking control is automatically deactivated, when the driver sharply
depresses the brake pedal, or when
the driver abruptly operates the
steering wheel.
• The braking control is automatically canceled, when risk factors disappear.
CAUTION
The driver should always pay greatcaution to vehicle operation, eventhough there is no warning messageor warning alarm.
WARNING
The AEB cannot avoid all collisions.The AEB might not completely stopthe vehicle before collision, due toambient, weather and road condi‐tions. The driver has the responsibili‐ty to drive safely and control the ve‐hicle.
WARNING
The AEB operates in accordance withthe risk levels, such as the distancefrom the vehicle/passer-by in front,the speed of the vehicle/passer-byin front, and the driver's vehicle op‐eration.
Sensor to detect the distance
from the vehicle in front (front
radar)
0+')1
The sensor is to maintain a certain dis‐
tance from the vehicle in front. Howev‐ er, the smudged sensor lens with for‐
eign substances, such as snow and rain,
adversely affects the sensing perform‐ ance. It may even temporarily cancel
the AEB. Always keep the sensor lens
clean.
