If the vehicle in front stops sudden-
ly, you may have less control of the
brake system.
Therefore, always keep safe dis-
tance between your vehicle and
the vehicle in front of you.
The FCA system may activate dur- ing braking and the vehicle may
stop suddenly. And the load in the
vehicle may endanger passengers.
Therefore, always be mindful of the
load volume in the vehicle.
The FCA system may not activate if the driver applies the brake pedal
to avoid risk of collision.
The FCA system does not operate when the vehicle is in reverse. In
these cases, you must maintain a
safe braking distance, and if nec-
essary, depress the brake pedal to
reduce the driving speed in order
to maintain a safe distance. The regular braking function will
operate normally even if There is a
problem with the FCA brake control
system or other functions. In this
case, the braking control will not
operate in the risk of a collision.
The FCA system may not activate according to driving condition, traf-
fic on the road, weather, road con-
dition, etc.
The FCA system may not activate to all types of vehicles.Limitation of the system
The FCA is an assistant system for a
driver in a certain risky driving condi-
tion and it does not take every
responsibility for all risks from driving
condition.
The FCA monitors the driving situa-
tions through the radar and the cam-
era sensor. Thus, for a situation out
of the sensing range, the FCA may
not operate normally. The driver
should use caution in the following
situations. The FCA operation may
be limited.

Driving your vehicle
The cruise control system allows you
to program the vehicle to maintain a
constant speed without depressing
the accelerator pedal.
This system is designed to function
above approximately 30 km/h (20
mph).
If the cruise control is left on,
(CRUISE indicator light in the instru-
ment cluster illuminated) the cruise
control can be switched on acciden-
tally. Keep the cruise control system
off (CRUISE indicator light OFF)
when the cruise control is not in use,
to avoid inadvertently setting a speed.
Use the cruise control system only
when traveling on open highways in
good weather.
Do not use the cruise control when
driving in heavy or varying traffic, or
on slippery (rainy, icy or snow-cov-
ered) or winding roads or over 6%
up-hill or down-hill roads.✽ ✽NOTICE
• During normal cruise control
operation, when the SET switch is
activated or reactivated after
applying the brakes, the cruise
control will energize after approx-
imately 3 seconds. This delay is
normal.
• To activate cruise control, depress the brake pedal at least once after
turning the ignition switch to the
ON position or starting the engine.
This is to check if the brake switch
which is important part to cancel
cruise control is in normal condi-
tion.
To set cruise control speed:
1.Press the CRUISE button on the
steering wheel to turn the system
on. The CRUISE indicator light in the
instrument cluster will illuminate.
2.Accelerate to the desired speed, which must be more than 30 km/h
(20 mph).
CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM
WARNING - Misuse of
Cruise Control
Do not use cruise control if the
traffic situation does not allow
you to drive safely at a constant
speed and with sufficient dis-
tance to the vehicle in front.

3.Move the lever down (to SET-), and
release it at the desired speed. The
set speed in the instrument cluster
will display. Release the accelera-
tor at the same time. The desired
speed will automatically be main-
tained.
On a steep grade, the vehicle mayslow down or speed up slightly whilegoing downhill.To increase cruise control set
speed:
Follow either of these procedures:
Move the lever up (to RES+) and hold it. Your vehicle will accelerate.
Release the lever at the speed you
want.
Move the lever up (to RES+) and release it immediately. The cruising
speed will increase by 2 km/h (1.0
mph) each time the lever is operat-
ed in this manner.

To decrease the cruising
speed:
Follow either of these procedures:
Move the lever down (to SET-) andhold it. Your vehicle will gradually
slow down. Release the lever at the
speed you want to maintain.
Move the lever down (to SET-) and release it immediately. The cruising
speed will decrease by 2 km/h (1.0
mph) each time the lever is operat-
ed in this manner.
To temporarily accelerate with
the cruise control on:
If you want to speed up temporarily
when the cruise control is on,
depress the accelerator pedal.
Increased speed will not interfere
with the cruise control operation or
change the set speed.
To return to the set speed, take your
foot off the accelerator.
To cancel cruise control, do
one of the following:
Depress the brake pedal.
Shift into N (Neutral) with an auto- matic transmission.
Press the CANCEL switch.
Decrease the vehicle speed lower than the memory speed by 20
km/h (12 mph).
Decrease the vehicle speed to less than approximately 25 km/h (15
mph).

Each of these actions will cancel
cruise control operation (The setspeed in the instrument cluster willgo off), but it will not turn the systemoff. If you wish to resume cruise con-trol operation, move the lever up (toRES+). You will return to your previ-ously preset speed.To resume cruising speed at
more than approximately 30
km/h (20 mph):
If any method other than the
CRUISE ON-OFF switch was used
to cancel cruising speed and the sys-
tem is still activated, the most recent
set speed will automatically resume
when you move the lever up.
It will not resume, however, if the
vehicle speed has dropped below
approximately 30 km/h (20 mph).
To turn cruise control off, do
one of the following:
Press the CRUISE button (the CRUISE indicator light in the
instrument cluster will go off).
Turn the ignition off.
Both of these actions will cancel the cruise control operation. If you wantto resume the cruise control opera-tion, repeat the steps provided in “Toset cruise control speed” on the pre-vious page.

SMART CRUISE CONTROL WITH STOP & GO SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
➀Cruise indicator
➁ Set speed
➂ Vehicle-to-vehicle distance
The smart cruise control system
allows you to program the vehicle to
maintain constant speed and dis-
tance detecting the vehicle ahead
without depressing the accelerator or
brake pedal.
WARNING
- Smart cruise control sys- tem Inadvertent Activation
If the smart cruise control systemis left on (CRUISE indi-
cator in the instrument cluster
illuminated), it can be activat-
ed inadvertently. Keep the
smart cruise control syste off
(CRUISE indicator turn off)
when the smart cruise control
systemis not in use to avoid
setting a speed which the
driver is not aware of.
The smart cruise control sys- temis a supplemental system
and is not a substitute for safe
driving practices. It is the
responsibility of the driver to
always check the speed and
distance to the vehicle ahead.

Use the smart cruise controlsystem only when traveling
on open highways in good
weather.
Do not use the smart cruise control when it may not be
safe to keep the car at a con-
stant speed. For instance.
- Highway interchange andtollgate
- Road surrounded by abnor- mally multiple steel con-
structions (subway con-
struction, steel tunnel, etc)
- Parking lot
- Lanes beside guard rail on a road
- Slippery road with rain, ice, or snow covered
- Abrupt curved road
- Steep hills
- Windy roads
- Off roads (Continued)

ing level difference of the
vehicle's front and rear
- When driving in heavy traffic or when traffic conditions
make it difficult to drive at a
constant speed
- When driving on rainy, icy, or snow covered roads
- When driving with limited view (possibly due to bad
weather, such as fog, snow,
rain or sandstorm)
(Continued)(Continued)
The smart cruise control sys-tem cannot recognize a
stopped vehicle, pedestrians
or an oncoming vehicle.
Always look ahead cautiously
to prevent unexpected and
sudden situations from occur-
ring.
Pay particular attention to the driving conditions whenever
using the smart cruise control
system.
Be careful when driving downhill using the SCC.
Limited visibility (rain, snow, smog, etc.)
Cruise function should not be used when the vehicle is
being towed to prevent any
damage.
Always set the vehicle speed under the speed limit in your
country.
(Continued)(Continued)
Unexpected situations maylead to possible accidents.
Pay attention continuously to
road conditions and driving
even when the smart cruise
control system is being oper-
ated.
