OCN7070032L
When the front windshield where the
front view camera is located or the
sensor is covered with foreign material,
such as snow or rain, it can reduce the
detecting performance and temporarily
limit or disable Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist.
If this occurs the ‘Forward Safety system

message, and the
and warning
lights will illuminate on the cluster.
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist will
operate properly when such snow, rain or
foreign material is removed.
If Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
does not operate properly after
obstruction (snow, rain, or foreign
material) is removed, have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
WARNING

[ Even though the warning message or
warning light does not appear on the
cluster, Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist may not properly operate.

[ Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
may not properly operate in an area
(for example, open terrain), where
any objects are not detected after
turning ON the engine.

[Detecting vehicle
OTM070003
If the vehicle in front of you has
cargo that extends rearward from
the cab, or when the vehicle in front
of you has higher ground clearance,
additional special attention is
required. Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist may not be able
to detect the cargo extending from
the vehicle. In these instances,
you must maintain a safe braking
distance from the rearmost object,
and if necessary, steer the vehicle
and depress the brake pedal to
reduce your driving speed in order to
maintain distance.
WARNING

[ If the vehicle is driven at high speed,
the steering wheel will not be
controlled. The driver must always
follow the speed limit when using
Lane Keeping Assist.

[ If any other system’s warning
message is displayed or audible
warning is generated, Lane Keeping
Assist warning message may not be

Collision Warning
While Smart Cruise Control is operating,
when the collision risk with the v

T
warning message will appear on the
cluster, and an audible warning will
sound to warn the driver. Always have
your eyes on the road while driving, and
if necessary, depress the brake pedal to
reduce your driving speed in order to
maintain a safe distance.
WARNING
In the following situations, Smart Cruise
Control may not warn the driver of a
collision.
- The distance from the front vehicle
is near, or the vehicle speed of the
front vehicle is faster or similar to
your vehicle
- The speed of the front vehicle is very
slow or is at a standstill
- The accelerator pedal is depressed
right after Smart Cruise Control is
turned on
WARNING
Take the following precautions when
using Smart Cruise Control:

[ Smart Cruise Control does not
substitute for proper and safe
driving. It is the responsibility of the
driver to always check the speed and
distance to the vehicle ahead.

[ Smart Cruise Control may not
recognize unexpected and sudden
situations or complex driving
situations, so always pay attention to
driving conditions and control your
vehicle speed.

[ Keep Smart Cruise Control off when
the function is not in use to avoid
inadvertently setting a speed.

[ Do not open the door or leave the
vehicle when Smart Cruise Control
is operating, even if the vehicle is
stopped.

[ Always be aware of the selected
speed and vehicle distance.

[ Keep a safe distance according to
road conditions and vehicle speed.
If the vehicle distance is too close
during high-speed driving, a serious
collision may result.

[ When maintaining distance with
the vehicle ahead, if the front
vehicle disappears, Smart Cruise
Control may suddenly accelerate to
the set speed. Always be aware of
unexpected and sudden situations
from occurring.

[ Vehicle speed may decrease on an
upward slope and increase on a
downward slope.

[ Always be aware of situations such
as when a vehicle cuts in suddenly.

[ When you are towing a trailer or
another vehicle, we recommend that
Smart Cruise Control is turned off
due to safety reasons.

[ Turn off Smart Cruise Control when
your vehicle is being towed.
