Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance
Assist
Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance
Assist may apply braking power,
when an approaching vehicle is
detected within a certain distance
next to/behind your vehicle.It gently applies braking power on the
tire, which is located in the opposite
side of the possibly-colliding point.
The instrument cluster will inform the
driver of the system activation.
Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist
is automatically deactivated when:
- When the vehicle is deviated over
a certain distance from its driving
lane.
- The vehicle direction is changed
against the possible-colliding point
- The steering wheel is abruptly
moved
- The brake pedal is depressed
- After a certain period of time
The driver should drive the vehicle in
the middle of the vehicle lanes to
keep the system in the ready status.
When the vehicle drives too close to
one side of the vehicle lanes, the
system may not properly operate.
In addition, the system may not prop-
erly control your vehicle in accordance
with driving situations. Thus, always
pay close attention to road situations.

your speed when a curved road is
ahead by receiving road information
from the navigation while the Smart
Cruise Control is operating.✽ ✽

NOTICE
• Navigation-based Smart Cruise
Control is available only on con-
trolled access road of certain high-
ways.
❈ ❈
Controlled access road indicates
roads with limited entrances
and exits that allow uninter-
rupted high speed traffic flow.
Only passenger cars and motor-
cycles are allowed on controlled
access roads.
• Additional highways may be
expanded by navigation updates.
System Setting and Operation

Driving your vehicle
The higher the driving speed, the
faster the vehicle is decelerated.
The system responds to curves
located on the destination set in
the navigation. If the destination is
not set, the system will respond to
road information of the expected
route.✽ ✽
NOTICE
• Navigation-based Smart Cruise
Control is limited in other coun-
tries.
• The system may not operate due to
the existence of leading vehicles
and the driving situations of the
vehicle.
• The system operates regardless of
whether the sharp curve warning
appears on the navigation, but the
time gap could occur between the
warning and system operation.
• The navigation only provides
curve information within permit-
ted speed ranges so that the system
may not decrease its speed during
extreme over speed driving.
• The system is not designed to work
on highways other than mentioned
as a controlled access road.
• The system automatically cancels
when you leave the highway
(Continued)(Continued)
• Highway Driving Assist and
Navigation-based Smart Cruise
Control uses the same “AUTO”
symbol that indicates the status of
the system. Therefore, even if
Navigation-based Cruise Control
is off, the “AUTO” symbol may be
displayed.
• If there is a problem with
Navigation based Smart Cruise
Control, the system cannot be acti-
vated in the AVN system screen,
and the “AUTO” symbol will turn
off. However, if Highway Driving
Assist is activated, the “AUTO”
symbol will be displayed.
• After you pass through a tollgate
on a highway, the system operates
based on the first lane. If you enter
one of the other lanes, the system
might not properly decelerate.
• If you over speed, the system may
not decelerate the vehicle in a
curve.
