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.
