STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS
STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS
Smart Cruise Control is designed to maintain a predetermined distance from
vehicles detected ahead by automatically adjusting the driving speed as
needed. When traffic is detected, the vehicle will slow down to maintain a set
distance behind traffic without depressing the accelerator or brake pedal.
With SCC on and activated, the vehicle distance set, and the system detects
a vehicle slowing or stopping, the system can bring the vehicle to a complete
stop. When the vehicle ahead starts to move forward, SCC re-engages. If the
vehicle ahead stops for more than 3 seconds, the accelerator pedal or the
RES+ button must be pressed to start moving the vehicle.
To set/adjust the SCC speed:
§ Press the Driving Assist CRUISE button A to turn the system ON.
The CRUISE indicator will illuminate on the instrument cluster
§ Accelerate/decelerate to the desired speed
§ Press the SE T– button B to set the speed. Press the RES+/SET– button B up/down to increase/decrease the set speed
To set the vehicle distance:
§ Press the Vehicle Distance button C on the steering wheel.
§ Each time you press C the vehicle distance will change D, indicated by the number of bars that
appear on the display E
To cancel SCC operation: Press the CANCEL button F or press the brake pedal.
To turn SCC OFF: Press the Driving Assist CRUISE button A. The CRUISE indicator on the instrument
cluster will turn OFF.
To adjust the sensitivity of SCC: Press the mode button G on the Steering Wheel. With the OK button H,
select Drive Assistance, then SCC Response. Then select Fast, Normal or Slow.

§ Volume level between different audio modes:
§ When switching between audio modes (AM, FM, Bluetooth® Audio, etc.), the audio system saves the previous volume level you were listening to. For example, if you were listening to FM radio at volume level 20 then switched to BT Audio and adjusted the volume level to 30, the volume level will be at 20 when you switch back to FM radio
§ When using Bluetooth® Audio, the overall volume is dependent on your device’s volume. If the volume is turned down low on your device it will remain low even if the system volume is turned up
§ Navigation may be available when connected to Android Auto or Apple CarPlay supported smartphones
§ When using the voice command feature, wait for the system to BEEP before speaking the command
§ A warning screen may appear periodically to remind users that the UVO eServices should be operated when the engine is running to prevent battery discharge
