Driving up or down hills
• Driving uphill
-Before starting off, check if it is
possible to drive uphill.
-Drive as straight as possible.
• Driving downhill
-Do not change gear while driving
downhill. Select gear before driving
downhill.
-Drive as slowly using engine braking
while driving downhill.
-Drive straight as possible.
WARNING
Exercise extreme caution driving up or
down steep hills. The vehicle may flip
depending on the grade, terrain and
water/ mud conditions.
OLMB053018
WARNING
Do not drive across the contour of steep
hills. A slight change in the wheel angle
can destabilize the vehicle, or a stable
vehicle may lose stability if the vehicle
stops its forward motion. Your vehicle
may roll over and lead to a serious injury
or death.
Driving through water
• Try to avoid driving in deep standing
water. It may stall your engine and
clog your exhaust pipes.
• If you need to drive in water, stop
your vehicle, set the vehicle in AWD
LOCK mode and drive under 8 km/h
(5 mph).
• Do not change gear while driving in
water.
Additional driving conditions
• Become familiar with the off-road
conditions before driving.
• Always pay attention when driving off-
road and avoid dangerous areas.
• Drive slowly when driving in heavy
wind.
• Reduce vehicle speed when
cornering. The center of gravity
of AWD vehicles is higher than
conventional 2WD vehicles, making
them more likely to roll over when you
rapidly turn corners.

WINTER DRIVING
The severe weather conditions of winter
quickly wear out tires and cause other
problems. To minimize winter driving
problems, you should take the following
suggestions:
Snow or icy conditions
You need to keep sufficient distance
between your vehicle and the vehicle in
front of you.
Apply the brakes gently. Speeding, rapid
acceleration, sudden brake applications,
and sharp turns are potentially
very hazardous practices. During
deceleration, use engine braking to the
fullest extent. Sudden brake applications
on snowy or icy roads may cause the
vehicle to skid.
To drive your vehicle in deep snow, it
may be necessary to use snow tires or to
install tire chains on your tires.
Always carry emergency equipment.
Some of the items you may want to carry
include tire chains, tow straps or chains,
a flashlight, emergency flares, sand, a
shovel, jumper cables, a window scraper,
gloves, ground cloth, coveralls, a blanket,
etc.
Snow tires
WARNING
Snow tires should be equivalent in size
and type to the vehicle’s standard tires.
Otherwise, the safety and handling of
your vehicle may be adversely affected.
We recommend that you use snow tires
when road temperature is below 45°F
(7°C). Refer to the below chart, and
mount the recommended snow tire for
your vehicle.
If you mount snow tires on your vehicle,
make sure to use the same Inflation
pressure as the original tires. Mount
snow tires on all four wheels to balance
your vehicle’s handling in all weather
conditions. The traction provided by
snow tires on dry roads may not be as
high as your vehicle’s original equipment
tires. Check with the tire dealer for
maximum speed recommendations.

This may result in unnecessary
warning or braking assist, or no
warning or braking assist when
necessary.
Also, vehicle speed may rapidly
decrease when a vehicle, pedestrian
or cyclist ahead is suddenly
detected.
Always have your eyes on the road
while driving uphill or downhill and
if necessary, steer the vehicle and
depress the brake pedal to reduce
your driving speed in order to
maintain a safe distance.•

• After you pass through a tollgate on a
highway (or motorway), Navigation-
based Smart Cruise Control will
operate based on the first lane. If
you enter one of the other lanes,
Navigation-based Smart Cruise
Control may not operate properly.
• The vehicle will accelerate if the
driver depresses the accelerator
pedal while Navigation-based Smart
Cruise Control is operating, and
the function will not decelerate the
vehicle. However, if the accelerator
pedal is depressed insufficiently, the
vehicle may decelerate.
• If the driver accelerates and
releases the accelerator pedal while
Navigation-based Smart Cruise
Control is operating, the vehicle may
not decelerate sufficiently or may
rapidly decelerate to a safe speed.
• If the curve is too large or too small,
Navigation-based Smart Cruise
Control may not operate.
Information
• The time gap could occur between
the navigation’s guidance and when
Navigation-based Smart Cruise Control
operation starts and ends.
• The speed information on the cluster
and navigation may differ.
• Even if you are driving at a speed lower
than Smart Cruise Control set speed,
acceleration may be limited by the
curve sections ahead.
• If Navigation-based Smart Cruise
Control is operating while leaving the
main road to enter an interchange,
junction, rest area, etc., the function
may operate for a certain period of
time.
• Deceleration by Navigation-based
Smart Cruise Control may feel it is not
sufficient due to road conditions such
as uneven road surfaces, narrow lanes,
etc.
