Driving your vehicle
When the system is turned on from
the User Settings mode, but the front
radar doesn't recognize the vehicle
in front, 'AUTO' is displayed in white. If the front radar recognizes the vehi-
cle in front, 'AUTO' is displayed in
blue. The regenerative braking level
is automatically controlled depend-
ing on the driving condition of the
vehicle in front and the level is indi-
cated with arrows.
However, current regenerative brak-
ing level is maintained if the driver
depresses the brake pedal while the
system is in activation. Also, the sys-
tem is cancelled temporarily if the
accelerator pedal is depressed.

The Smart Regeneration
System which automatically
controls the regenerative brak-
ing level when coasting is only
a supplemental system for the
driver's convenience. The sys-
tem cannot completely stop the
vehicle nor avoid all collisions.
The brake control may be insuf-
ficient depending on the speed
of the vehicle in front and when
the vehicle in front suddenly
stops, a vehicle cuts in sudden-
ly or there is a steep slope.
Always look ahead cautiously
to prevent unexpected and sud-
den situations from occurring.

Vehicle-to-Vehicle Front
Recognition - Front Radar
Sensor
In order for the Smart Regeneration
System to operate properly, always
make sure the radar sensor cover is
clean and free of dirt, snow, and
debris. Dirt, snow, or foreign sub-
stances on the lens may adversely
affect the sensing performance of
the sensor. In this case, the system
operation may stop temporarily and
not operate normally.
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 adverse-
ly affect the sensing perform-
ance of the radar.
Always keep the radar sensor
and lens cover clean and free
of dirt and debris.
CAUTION
When the Smart Regeneration
System is cancelled automati-
cally, adjust the vehicle speed
directly by depressing the
accelerator or brake pedal
according to the road condition
ahead and driving condition.

Using ABS
To obtain the maximum benefit from
your ABS in an emergency situation,
do not attempt to modulate your
brake pressure and do not try to
pump your brakes. Depress your
brake pedal as hard as possible.
When you apply your brakes under
conditions which may lock the
wheels, you may hear sounds from
the brakes, or feel a corresponding
sensation in the brake pedal. This is
normal and it means your ABS is
active.
ABS does not reduce the time or dis-
tance it takes to stop the vehicle.
Always maintain a safe distance from
the vehicle in front of you.
ABS will not prevent a skid that
results from sudden changes in
direction, such as trying to take a
corner too fast or making a sudden
lane change. Always drive at a safe
speed for the road and weather con-
ditions.ABS cannot prevent a loss of stabili-
ty. Always steer moderately when
braking hard. Severe or sharp steer-
ing wheel movement can still cause
your vehicle to veer into oncoming
traffic or off the road.
On loose or uneven road surfaces,
operation of the anti-lock brake sys-
tem may result in a longer stopping
distance than for vehicles equipped
with a conventional brake system.
The ABS warning light ( ) will stay
on for several seconds after the
POWER button is in the ON position.
During that time, the ABS will go
through self-diagnosis and the light
will go off if everything is normal. If
the light stays on, you may have a
problem with your ABS. Contact an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon
as possible.
If the ABS warning light ( ) is
on and stays on, you may have
a problem with the ABS. Your
power brakes will work normal-
ly. To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death, contact your
HYUNDAI dealer as soon as
possible.

ESC OFF usage
When Driving
The ESC OFF mode should only be
used briefly to help free the vehicle if
stuck in snow or mud, by temporarily
stopping operation of the ESC, to
maintain wheel torque.
To turn ESC off while driving, press
the ESC OFF button while driving on
a flat road surface. Do not allow wheel(s) of one
axle to spin excessively while
the ESC, ABS, and parking brake
warning lights are displayed.
The repairs would not be cov-
ered by the vehicle warranty.
Reduce vehicle power and do
not spin the wheel(s) excessive-
ly while these lights are dis-
played.
When operating the vehicle on a dynamometer, make sure the
ESC is turned off (ESC OFF light
illuminated).
Information
Turning the ESC off does not affect
ABS or standard brake system opera-
tion.
Vehicle Stability Management
(VSM)
The Vehicle Stability Management
(VSM) is a function of the Electronic
Stability Control (ESC) system. It
helps ensure the vehicle stays stable
when accelerating or braking sud-
denly on wet, slippery and rough
roads where traction over the four
tires can suddenly become uneven.
i
NOTICE
Take the following precautions
when using the Vehicle Stability
Management (VSM):
ALWAYS check the speed and
the distance to the vehicle
ahead. The VSM is not a substi-
tute for safe driving practices.
Never drive too fast for the
road conditions. The VSM sys-
tem will not prevent acci-
dents. Excessive speed in bad
weather, slippery and uneven
roads can result in severe
accidents.

FCA Warning Message and
System Control
The FCA 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, or insufficient braking dis-
tance detection. Also, it controls the
brakes in accordance with the colli-
sion risk levels.
The driver can select the initial warn-
ing activation time in the User
Settings in the LCD display. The
options for the initial Forward
Collision Warning include Late,
Normal or Early initial warning time.
Collision Warning (First warning)
This warning message appears on
the LCD display with a warning
chime. Additionally, some vehicle
system intervention occurs to help
decelerate the vehicle.
- Your vehicle speed may deceler-ate moderately.
- The FCA system limitedly con- trols the brakes to preemptively
mitigate impact in a collision.
Emergency braking (Second warning)
This warning message appears on
the LCD display with a warning
chime.
Additionally, some vehicle system
intervention occurs to help deceler-
ate the vehicle.
- The FCA system limitedly con-trols the brakes to preemptively
mitigate impact in a collision. The
brake control is maximized just
before a collision.

Second stage alert
A warning chime to alert the driver will activate when:
1. A vehicle has been detected in the blind spot area by the radar system
(the warning light will illuminate on the outer side view mirror and/or the
head up display (if equipped) (i.e, in the first stage alert)) AND
2. The turn signal is applied (same side as where the vehicle is being detected).
When this alert is activated, the warning light on the outer side view mir-
ror and/or the head up display (if equipped) will also blink.
If you turn off the turn signal indicator, the second stage alert (warning
chime and blinking warning light on the outer side view mirror) will be
deactivated.
Once the detected vehicle is no longer within the blind spot area, the warn-
ing will turn off according to the driving conditions of the vehicle.
