Anti-lock brake system (ABS)
WARNING
ABS (or ESC) will not prevent acci‐dents due to improper or dangerousdriving maneuvers. Even though ve‐hicle control is improved duringemergency braking, always maintaina safe distance between you and ob‐jects ahead. Vehicle speeds shouldalways be reduced during extremeroad conditions.The braking distance for vehicleequipped with an anti-lock brakingsystem (or Electronic Stability Con‐trol) may be longer than for thosewithout it in the following road con‐ditions.During these conditions the vehicleshould be driven at reduced speeds:•Rough, gravel or snow-coveredroads.
•With tire chains installed.
•On roads where the road surface ispitted or has different surfaceheight.
(Continued)
(Continued)
The safety features of an ABS (orESC) equipped vehicle should not betested by high speed driving or cor‐nering. This could endanger thesafety of yourself or others.
The ABS continuously senses the speed
of the wheels. If the wheels are going to lock, the ABS system repeatedly
modulates the hydraulic brake pressure
to the wheels.
When you apply your brakes under conditions which may lock the wheels,
you may hear a L

•After an engine start, if any ob‐jects are not detected or the sen‐sor cover is obscured with foreignsubstances, there is a possibilitythat the SCC system may notwork.
•Below conditions are not allowed:over baggage loading in a trunk,suspension remodeling, tire re‐placement with unauthorized tiresor tires with different worn-outand pressure levels.
CAUTION
The advanced smart cruise controlsystem may not operate temporari‐ly due to electrical interference.

•The detection area differs accord‐ing to the roads width. If the roadis narrow the system may detectother vehicles in the second nextlane.
•On the contrary, if the road is verywide the system may not detectother vehicles in the next lane.
•The system might be turned offdue to strong electromagneticwaves.
Non-operating condition
Outside rearview mirror may not alert
the driver when:
- The outside rearview mirror housing
is damaged or covered with debris.

a foreign matter such as a sticker, a bumper guard, a bicycle stand, etc.
- The rear bumper is damaged, or the
sensor is out of the original default
position.
- The vehicle height gets lower or high‐
er due to heavy loading in a trunk,
abnormal tire pressure, etc.
- The vehicle drives in a bad weather
such as heavy rain or snow.
- There is a fixed object near the vehi‐
cle, such as a guardrail.

Driving off-road
Drive carefully off-road because your
vehicle may be damaged by rocks or roots of trees. Become familiar with
the off-road conditions where you are
going to drive before you begin driving.
Highway driving
Tires
Adjust the tire inflation pressures to
specification. Low tire inflation pres‐ sures will result in overheating and pos‐
sible failure of the tires.
Avoid using worn or damaged tires
which may result in reduced traction or tire failure.
NOTICE
Never exceed the maximum tire in‐
flation pressure shown on the tires.
WARNING
•Underinflated or overinflated tirescan cause poor handling, loss ofvehicle control, and sudden tirefailure leading to accidents, inju‐ries, and even death. Always checkthe tires for proper inflation be‐fore driving. For proper tire pres‐sures, refer to L
