The Navigation-based Smart Cruise
Control system will help automatical-
ly adjust your speed when a curved
road is ahead by receiving road infor-
mation from the navigation while the
Smart Cruise Control is operating.✽ ✽NOTICE 
• The Navigation-based Smart
Cruise Control system is only
available on controlled access road
of certain highways.❈ ❈    
Controlled access road  indi-
cates roads with limited
entrances and exits that allow
uninterrupted high speed traf-
fic flow. Only passenger cars
and motorcycles are allowed on
controlled access roads.
• Available highways may be expanded by navigation updates.
System Setting and Operation
System setting
 With the Engine Start/Stop button in
the ON or START position, the
Navigation-based Smart Cruise
Control can be activated by select-
ing 'AVN → Setup →Vehicle  →
Driver Assistance → Highway Auto

NAVIGATION-BASED SMART CRUISE CONTROL (IF EQUIPPPED)
WARNING 
 The Navigation-based SmartCruise Control system is not a
substitute for safe driving
practices, but a convenience
function. It is the responsibili-
ty of the driver to always be
aware of the surroundings
and drive safely.
 The Navigation-based Smart Cruise Control system relies
entirely on the road informa-
tion provided by the naviga-
tion and may accelerate
above speed limit. It is the
responsibility of the driver to
follow traffic laws and avoid
accidents.
 For your safety, please read the owner's manual before
using the system.

 The system responds to curveslocated 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 the
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. 
• Deceleration by the system may not be sufficient if the driver accel-
erates while the system is operat-
ing,  (Continued)
