Prerequisite for activation
The AEB system is on and ready
when AEB is selected on the LCD
display and when the following pre-
requisites are satisfied:
- The ESC (Electronic StabilityControl) is on.
- Driving speed exceeds approxi- mately 6 mph (10 km/h). (The AEB
is only activated within a certain
speed range.)
- The system detects a pedestrian or a vehicle in front, which may col-
lide with your vehicle. (The AEB
may not be activated or may sound
a warning alarm in accordance
with the driving situation or vehicle
condition.)
AEB Warning Message and
System Control
The AEB produces warning mes-
sages and warning alarms in accor-
dance with the collision risk levels,
such as abrupt stopping of the vehi-
cle in front, insufficient braking dis-
tance, or pedestrian detection. Also,
it controls the brakes in accordance
with the collision risk levels.Completely stop the vehicle
on a safe location before
operating the switch on the
steering wheel to activate/
deactivate the AEB system.
The AEB automatically acti-
vates when the Engine Start/
Stop button is in the ON posi-
tion. The driver can deactivate
the AEB by canceling the sys-
tem setting on the LCD dis-
play.
If you cancel the ESC
(Electronic Stability Control)
when the AEB system is
turned on, the AEB automati-
cally deactivates and the AEB
warning light illuminates.
When the ESC is cancelled
the AEB cannot be activated
on the LCD display. The AEB
warning light will illuminate
which is normal.

Brake operation
In an urgent situation, the brakingsystem enters into the ready status
for prompt reaction against the dri-
ver's depressing the brake pedal.
The AEB provides additional brak- ing power for optimum braking per-
formance, when the driver
depresses the brake pedal.
The braking control is automatical- ly deactivated, when the driver
sharply depresses the accelerator
pedal, or when the driver abruptly
operates the steering wheel.
The AEB brake control is automat- ically canceled, when risk factors
disappear.
AEB Sensor
In order for the AEB system to oper-
ate properly, always make sure the
radar sensor cover is clean and free
of dirt, snow, and debris. Dirt, snow,
or foreign substances on the lens
may adversely affect the sensing
performance of the sensor.
The driver should always use
extreme caution while operating
the vehicle, whether or not there
is a warning message or alarm
from the AEB system.
CAUTION
The braking control cannot
completely stop the vehicle nor
avoid all collisions. The driver
should hold the responsibility
to safely drive and control the
vehicle.
WARNING
Never deliberately drive danger-
ously to activate the system.
WARNING
The AEB system logic operates
within certain parameters, such
as the distance from the vehicle
or pedestrian ahead, the speed
of the vehicle ahead, and the
driver's vehicle speed. Certain
conditions such as inclement
weather and road conditions
may affect the operation of the
AEB system.
WARNING

5-48
Driving your vehicle
Do not apply license plate frame or foreign objects such as a
bumper sticker or a bumper
guard near the radar sensor.
Doing so may adversely affect
the sensing performance of the
radar.
Always keep the radar sensor and cover clean and free of dirt
and debris.
Use only a soft cloth to wash the vehicle. Do not spray pressur-
ized water directly on the sensor
or sensor cover.
Be careful not to apply unneces- sary force on the radar sensor or
sensor cover. If the sensor is
forcibly moved out of proper
alignment, the AEB system may
not operate correctly. In this
case, a warning message may
not be displayed. Have the vehi-
cle inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
(Continued)(Continued)
If the front bumper becomes
damaged in the area around the
radar sensor, the AEB system
may not operate properly. Have
the vehicle inspected by author-
ized HYUNDAI.
Use only genuine parts to repair or replace a damaged sensor or
sensor cover. Do not apply paint
to the sensor cover. NEVER install any accessories
or stickers on the front wind-
shield, nor tint the front wind-
shield.
NEVER locate any reflective objects (i.e. white paper, mirror)
over the dashboard. Any light
reflection may cause a malfunc-
tion of the system.
Pay extreme caution to keep the camera out of water.
NEVER disassemble the camera assembly, nor apply any impact
on the camera assembly.
Playing the vehicle audio sys- tem at high volume may offset
the system warning sounds.
Information
Have the system checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer when:
• The windshield glass is replaced.
• The front bumper is replaced.
• The sensor cover or sensor getsdamaged or replaced.

When the sensor cover is blocked
with dirt, snow, or debris, the AEB
system operation may stop tem-
porarily. If this occurs, a warning
message will appear on the LCD dis-
play.
Remove any dirt, snow, or debris and
clean the radar sensor cover before
operating the AEB system. The sys-
tem will operate normally when such
dirt, snow or debris is removed. The AEB may not properly operate in
an area (e.g. open terrain), where
any substances are not detected
after turning ON the vehicle.

Driving your vehicle(Continued)
Even if there is any problem
with the brake control func-
tion of the AEB system, the
vehicle's basic braking per-
formance will operate normal-
ly. However, brake control
function for avoiding collision
will not activate.
If the vehicle in front stops
suddenly, you may have less
control of the brake system.
Therefore, always keep a safe
distance between your vehicle
and the vehicle in front of you.
The AEB system may activate
during braking and the vehi-
cle may stop suddenly shift-
ing loose objects toward the
passengers. Always keep
loose objects secured.
The AEB system may not acti-
vate if the driver applies the
brake pedal to avoid a colli-
sion.(Continued)
(Continued)
The brake control may be
insufficient, possibly causing
a collision, if a vehicle in front
abruptly stops. Always pay
extreme caution.
Occupants may get injured, if
the vehicle abruptly stops by
the activated AEB system. Pay
extreme caution.
The AEB system operates
only to help detect vehicles or
pedestrians in front of the
vehicle.
The AEB system does not
operate when the vehicle is in
reverse.
The AEB system is not
designed to detect other
objects on the road such as
animals.
The AEB system does not
detect vehicles in the oppo-
site lane.(Continued)
WARNING
The AEB is only a supplemen-
tal system for the driver's con-
venience. The driver should
hold the responsibility to con-
trol the vehicle operation. Do
not solely depend on the AEB
system. Rather, maintain a
safe braking distance, and, if
necessary, depress the brake
pedal to reduce the driving
speed.
In certain instances and
under certain driving condi-
tions, the AEB system may
activate unintentionally. This
initial warning message
appears on the LCD display
with a warning chime.
Also, in certain instances the
front radar sensor or camera
recognition system may not
detect the vehicle or pedestri-
an ahead. The AEB system
may not activate and the
warning message will not be
displayed.(Continued)
WARNING

The AEB system may recognize a
vehicle in the next lane when driving
on a curved road.
In this case, the system may unnec-
essarily alarm the driver and apply
the brake.
Always pay attention to road and
driving conditions, while driving. If
necessary, depress the brake pedal
to reduce your driving speed in order
to maintain a safe distance.
Also, when necessary depress the
accelerator pedal to prevent the sys-
tem from unnecessarily decelerating
your vehicle.
Check the surrounding traffic condi-
tions before use.- Driving on a slope
The performance of the AEB decreas-
es while driving upward or downward
on a slope, not recognizing the vehi-
cle in front in the same lane. It may
unnecessarily produce the warning
message and the warning alarm, or it
may not produce the warning mes-
sage and the warning alarm at all.
When the AEB suddenly recognizes
the vehicle in front while passing
over a slope, you may experience
sharp deceleration.
Always keep your eyes forward while
driving upward or downward on a
slope, and, if necessary, depress the
brake pedal to reduce your driving
speed in order to maintain distance.- Changing lanes
When a vehicle changes lanes in
front of you, the AEB system may not
immediately detect the vehicle, espe-
cially if the vehicle changes lanes
abruptly. In this case, you must main-
tain a safe braking distance, and if
necessary, depress the brake pedal
to reduce your driving speed in order
to maintain a safe distance.
