On curves
The Smart Cruise Control System
may not detect a moving vehicle in
your lane, and then your vehicle
could accelerate to the set speed.
Also, the vehicle speed will
decrease when the vehicle ahead
is recognised suddenly.
Select the appropriate set speed
on curves and apply the brakes or
accelerator pedal if necessary.Your vehicle speed can be reduced
due to a vehicle in the adjacent lane.
Apply the accelerator pedal and
select the appropriate set speed.
Check to be sure that the road con-
ditions permit safe operation of the
Smart Cruise Control.
On inclines
During uphill or downhill driving,
the Smart Cruise Control System
may not detect a moving vehicle in
your lane, and cause your vehicle
to accelerate to the set speed.
Also, the vehicle speed will rapidly
decrease when the vehicle ahead
is recognised suddenly.
Select the appropriate set speed
on inclines and apply the brake or
accelerator pedal if necessary.

Driving your vehicle
Lane changing
A vehicle which moves into your
lane from an adjacent lane cannot
be recognised by the sensor until it
is in the sensor's detection range.
The radar may not detect immedi-
ately when a vehicle cuts in sud-
denly. Always pay attention to the
traffic, road and driving conditions.
If a slower vehicle moves into your
lane, your speed may decrease to
maintain the distance to the vehicle
ahead.
If a faster vehicle which moves into
your lane, your vehicle will acceler-
ate to the set speed.
Vehicle recognition
Some vehicles in your lane cannot
be recognised by the sensor:
- Narrow vehicles such as motorcy-
cles or bicycles
- Vehicles offset to one side
- Slow-moving vehicles or sudden-
decelerating vehicles
- Stopped vehicles
- Vehicles with small rear profile
such as trailers with no loadsA vehicle ahead cannot be recog-
nised correctly by the sensor if any of
following occurs:
- When the vehicle is pointing
upwards due to overloading in the
luggage compartment
- Whilst the steering wheel is operat-
ing
- When driving to one side of the
lane
- When driving on narrow lanes or
on curves
Apply the brake or accelerator pedal
if necessary.

Your vehicle may accelerate when
a vehicle ahead of you disappears.
When you are warned that the
vehicle ahead of you is not detect-
ed, drive with caution. When driving in stop-and-go traffic,
and a vehicle in front of you
merges out of the lane, the system
may not immediately detect the
new vehicle that is now in front of
you. 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 dis-
tance. Always look out for pedestrians
when your vehicle is maintaining a
distance with the vehicle ahead.

Always be cautious for vehicles
with higher height or vehicles car-
rying loads that sticks out from the
back of the vehicle.

When using the Smart Cruise
Control take the following pre-
cautions:
If an emergency stop is nec-
essary, you must apply the
brakes. The vehicle cannot be
stopped at every emergency
situation by using the Smart
Cruise Control System.
Keep a safe distance accord-
ing to road conditions and
vehicle speed. If the vehicle to
vehicle distance is too close
during a high-speed driving, a
serious collision may result.
Always maintain sufficient
braking distance and deceler-
ate your vehicle by applying
the brakes if necessary.

WARNING (Continued)
The Smart Cruise Control
System cannot recognize a
stopped vehicle, pedestrians
or an oncoming vehicle.
Always look ahead cautiously
to prevent unexpected and
sudden situations from occur-
ring.
Vehicles moving in front of
you with a frequent lane
change may cause a delay in
the system's reaction or may
cause the system to react to a
vehicle actually in an adjacent
lane. Always drive cautiously
to prevent unexpected and
sudden situations from occur-
ring.

may not operate temporarily due
to:
Electrical interference
Modifying the suspension
Differences of tyre abrasion or
tyre pressure
Installing different type of tyres
NOTICE5
(Continued)
Always be aware of the select-
ed speed and vehicle to vehi-
cle distance. The driver
should not solely rely on the
system but always pay atten-
tion to driving conditions and
control your vehicle speed.
The Smart Cruise Control
System may not recognize
complex driving situations so
always pay attention to driv-
ing conditions and control
your vehicle speed.
The Smart Cruise Control sys-
tem may recognize a pedestri-
an, bicycle, motorcycle, etc. as
a vehicle. Always, look ahead
cautiously to prevent unex-
pected and sudden situations
from occurring.
(Continued)(Continued)
Turn off the Smart Cruise
Control system when the
vehicle is being towed.
The Smart Cruise Control sys-
tem may operate limitedly
when towing a trailer or vehi-
cle so always drive cautiously
to prevent unexpected and
sudden situations from occur-
ring.

The Leading Vehicle
Departure Alert system is
only a convenient auxiliary for
the driver. The system can’t
announce the alarm when a
leading vehicle departs in real
time.
The driver must check and
determine real conditions and
then start to drive even if the
system notified the leading
vehicle departure.
WARNING
The Leading Vehicle
Departure Alert (LVDA) sys-
tem is quite related with the
front camera in the vehicle for
the better performance. For
more information of front
camera, refer to "Lane
Keeping Assist (LKA)".
It may not provide Vehicle
Departure Alert or not proper-
ly operate in the following sit-
uations:
- Leading pedestrian(s) or
bicycle(s) in front of vehicle
- Leading cut-in vehicle(s)
- Leading vehicle’s quick
departure
- Stop on speed bump or
steep hill
- Stop on a right-turn junction
or a curved road
- Stop on shoulder road, rest
area, parking lot

Hazardous driving conditions
When hazardous driving elements
are encountered such as water,
snow, ice, mud and sand, take the
bellow suggestions:
Drive cautiously and keep a longer
braking distance.
Avoid abrupt braking or steering.
When your vehicle is stuck in snow,
mud, or sand, use second gear.
Accelerate slowly to avoid unnec-
essary wheel spin.
Put sand, rock salt, tyre chains or
other non-slip materials under the
wheels to provide additional trac-
tion whilst the vehicle becomes
stuck in ice, snow, or mud.
Rocking the vehicle
If it is necessary to rock the vehicle
to free it from snow, sand, or mud,
first turn the steering wheel right and
left to clear the area around your
front wheels. Then, shift back and
forth between R (Reverse) and a for-
ward gear.
Try to avoid spinning the wheels, and
do not race the engine.
To prevent transmission wear, wait
until the wheels stop spinning before
shifting gears. Release the accelera-
tor pedal whilst shifting, and press
lightly on the accelerator pedal whilst
the transmission is in gear. Slowly
spinning the wheels in forward and
reverse directions causes a rocking
motion that may free the vehicle.

Downshifting with a dual clutch
transmission whilst driving on
slippery surfaces can cause an
accident. The sudden change in
tyre speed could cause the
tyres to skid. Be careful when
downshifting on slippery sur-
faces.
WARNING
If the vehicle is stuck and
excessive wheel spin occurs,
the temperature in the tyres can
increase very quickly. If the
tyres become damaged, a tyre
blow out or tyre explosion can
occur. This condition is danger-
ous - you and others may be
injured. Do not attempt this pro-
cedure if people or objects are
anywhere near the vehicle.
If you attempt to free the vehi-
cle, the vehicle can overheat
quickly, possibly causing an
engine compartment fire or
other damage. Try to avoid spin-
ning the wheels as much as
possible to prevent overheating
of either the tyres or the engine.
DO NOT allow the vehicle to
spin the wheels above 56 km/h.
