Starting the Vehicle
Information
• The vehicle will start by pressing the
POWER button, only when the
smart key is in the vehicle.
• Even if the smart key is in the vehi-
cle, and when it is far away from the
driver, the vehicle may not start.
• When the POWER button is in the
ACC or ON position, any door is
open, the system checks for the
smart key. When the smart key is
not in the vehicle, the " " indica-
tor will blink and the warning "Key
not in vehicle" will come on. When
all doors are closed, the chime will
also sound for about 5 seconds.
Keep the smart key in the vehicle
when in the ACC position or if the
vehicle is in the ready ( ) mode.1. Always carry the smart key with
you.
2. Make sure the gear is in P (Park).
3. Depress the brake pedal.
4. Press the POWER button. If the
vehicle starts, the " " indicator
will come on.
Information
• Always start the vehicle with your
foot on the brake pedal.
• If ambient temperature is low, the
" " indicator may remain illumi-
nated longer than the normal amount
of time.

Always wear appropriate shoes
when operating your vehicle.
Unsuitable shoes, such as high
heels, ski boots, sandals, flip-
flops, etc., may interfere with
your ability to use the brake
and accelerator pedals.
Do not start the vehicle with the
accelerator pedal depressed.
The vehicle can move and
lead to an accident.
WARNING

5-17
Driving your vehicle
Initial setting of the regenerative
braking level and adjustable range
vary according to the selected Drive
mode.
For more details, refer to "Drive
Mode Integrated Control System"
in this chapter.One Pedal Driving
The driver can stop the vehicle by
pulling and holding the left side pad-
dle shifter.
Operating Conditions
The system enters the operating
condition when the conditions below
are met:
The driver's door is closed.
The driver's seat belt is fastened.
To operate:
Pull and hold the left side paddle
shifter while coasting.
When the vehicle speed is above 3
km/h, release the paddle shifter to
return to the previously set level.
When the vehicle speed is below 3
km/h, the function maintains con-
trol to stop the vehicle even though
the paddle shifter is released.
While the One pedal driving is in
activation, the driver can control
the vehicle stopping position using
the accelerator pedal.
Automatic engagement of
Electronic Parking Brake
After the vehicle is stopped by the
One Pedal Driving function,
Electronic Parking Brake is automat-
ically engaged when any of these
conditions occur:
The driver's door is open
The driver's seatbelt is unfastened.
The hood is open
The tailgate is open.
5 minutes have passed after the
vehicle has stopped.
The system operation is limited
due to other reasons.

necessary.
WARNING

The Smart Regeneration System
controls the regenerative braking
automatically according to the road
gradient and driving condition of the
vehicle in front. The system mini-
mizes the unnecessary operation of
the brake and acceleration pedal,
improving the fuel efficiency and
assisting the driver.System Setting
The Smart Regeneration System is
enabled when:
The gear is in P (Park) and select
'User settings →Convenience →
Smart Regeneration' on the User
Settings mode.
The setting is maintained when the
vehicle is restarted.
Activating the Smart
Regeneration System
With 'AUTO' for the regenerative
braking level displayed on the clus-
ter, the regenerative braking level is
controlled automatically when vehi-
cle speed is above 6 mph (10 km/h)
and one of the condition below is
met.
- The road gradient changes
- Distance from the vehicle ahead
reduces or increases
- Speed of the vehicle ahead
reduces or increases

Driving your vehicle
When vehicle speed is under 6
mph (10 km/h), the Smart
Regeneration System is can-
celled. The driver must adjust
the vehicle speed by depress-
ing the accelerator or brake
pedal according to the road
condition ahead and driving
condition.
WARNING

5-19
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.
WARNING

5-26
Driving your vehicle
Power Brakes
Your vehicle has power-assisted
brakes that adjust automatically
through normal usage.
If the vehicle is not in the ready
( ) mode or the vehicle is turned
off while driving, the power assist for
the brakes will not work. You can still
stop your vehicle by applying greater
force to the brake pedal than typical.
The stopping distance, however, will
be longer than with power brakes.
When the vehicle is not in the ready
( ) mode, the reserve brake
power is partially depleted each time
the brake pedal is applied. Do not
pump the brake pedal when the
power assist has been interrupted.
Pump the brake pedal only when
necessary to maintain steering con-
trol on slippery surfaces.

Take the following precautions:
Do not drive with your foot
resting on the brake pedal.
This will create abnormal high
brake temperatures, exces-
sive brake lining and pad
wear, and increased stopping
distances.
When descending down a
long or steep hill, use the pad-
dle shifter (left side lever) to
increase regenerative braking
control in order to control
your speed without using the
brake pedal excessively.
Applying the brakes continu-
ously will cause the brakes to
overheat and could result in a
temporary loss of braking per-
formance.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Wet brakes may impair the
vehicle's ability to safely slow
down; the vehicle may also
pull to one side when the
brakes are applied. Applying
the brakes lightly will indicate
whether they have been
affected in this way. Always
test your brakes in this fash-
ion after driving through deep
water. To dry the brakes, light-
ly tap the brake pedal to heat
up the brakes while maintain-
ing a safe forward speed until
brake performance returns to
normal. Avoid driving at high
speeds until the brakes func-
tion correctly.
WARNING

Driving your vehicle
However, if the EPB switch is
pressed within 1 second after the
vehicle is turned off, the EPB will not
be applied.
Releasing the parking brake
To release EPB (Electronic Parking
Brake):
Have the POWER button in the ON
position.
Depress the brake pedal.
Press the EPB switch.
Make sure the Parking Brake
Warning Light goes off.
To release EPB (Electronic Parking
Brake) automatically:
Shifted to P (Park)
With the vehicle in the ready ( )
mode depress the brake pedal and
shift out of P (Park) to R (Reverse),
D (Drive).
Shifted to N (Neutral)
With the vehicle in the ready ( )
mode depress the brake pedal and
shift out of N (Neutral) to R
(Reverse) or D (Drive).
Under the following conditions
1. Start the vehicle.
2. Fasten the driver's seat belt.
3. Close the driver's door, hood
and liftgate.
4. Depress the accelerator pedal
while the gear is in D (Drive) or
R (Reverse).
The Parking Brake Warning Light
should be turned off when the EPB is
released.
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS
INJURY or DEATH, do not oper-
ate the parking brake while the
vehicle is moving except in an
emergency situation. It could
damage the brake system and
lead to an accident.
