windshield and to run the wipers 1-3
cycles. The spray and wiper operation will
continue until you release the lever. If the
washer does not work, you may need to
add washer fluid to the washer fluid
reservoir.
Recirculating air when washer fluid
is used
When washer fluid is used, in order to
reduce any objectionable scent of the
washer fluid from entering the cabin,
recirculation mode and air conditioning
are automatically activated depending on
the outside temperature. If you select
fresh mode while the function is
operating, the function will resume after a
certain amount of time. It may not work in
some conditions such as cold weather or
vehicle off.
For more information, refer to the
“Climate Control Additional Features”
section in this chapter.
WARNING When the outside temperature is below
freezing, ALWAYS warm the windshield
using the defroster to help prevent the
washer fluid from freezing on the
windshield and obscuring your vision
which could result in an accident and
serious injury or death.

smart regeneration system can be
adjusted to match the driver’s
preference. Adjust the braking intensity
makes the decelerating faster or slower.
B6001903
To adjust the regenerative braking level of
the smart regeneration system, go to
Setup > EV > Smart Regeneration
System from the infotainment system.
Pausing Smart Regeneration
System
The smart regeneration system is
temporarily turned off in the following
conditions. While the system is turned off,
the driver must keep eyes on the road and
depress the brake pedal to decelerate.
• The gear is shifted to N (Neutral), R
(Reverse) or P (Park)
• Smart Cruise Control is ON
• ESC (Electronic Stability Control) is operating
• ABS is operating
Front Sensors
B6003001(1) Front radar
(2) Front corner radar
Front sensors recognize the distance
from the vehicle ahead to control the
regenerative braking intensity. If the
sensor is covered with snow, rain, or other
foreign substances, the performance of
the sensors may deteriorate, and the
smart regeneration system may turn off.
Always keep the sensors clean.
System Check Message
B6003101
When the front radar is covered or
blocked, the smart regeneration system
may be temporarily disabled. The 'Check
Smart Regeneration System' warning
message may appear, and the
regenerative braking level is displayed on
the instrument cluster.

holding the right paddle shifter ( ) for
over one second.
If the smart regeneration system does not
operate normally after the sensor has
been uncovered or unblocked, have the
vehicle inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Smart Regeneration System
Precautions
• Always monitor the distance to vehicles ahead on the road. The smart
regeneration system is not a substitute
for safe driving practices, but a
supplemental function only.
• Always maintain a safe distance from the vehicles ahead and adjust your
vehicle speed to the road conditions.
The smart regeneration system may not
recognize unexpected and sudden
situations or complex driving
situations.
General precautions
• Always maintain a safe distance from the vehicles ahead and adjust your
vehicle speed depending on the road
conditions.
• Always prepare for unexpected situations and depress the brake pedal
to decelerate when necessary. The
smart regeneration system cannot
react to pedestrians, vehicles making a
sudden stop and vehicles coming from
the opposite lane.
• If the vehicle ahead frequently changes the lane, keep your eyes forward to be
prepared for hazardous situations. In
this case, the smart regeneration
system may respond late and may
inappropriately respond to vehicle
movements from the side lanes.
• The driver must depress the brake pedal when stopping the vehicle.
• Depress the brake pedal to decelerate in the following conditions when: - The front part of the vehicle is lifted
up because of the cargo loaded on
the rear part of the vehicle.
- You are operating the steering wheel.
- You are not driving in the center of the lane.
- You are driving on a narrow or curved road.
• The smart regeneration system may be temporarily turn off when exposed to
strong electromagnetic waves.
• If the vehicle starts coasting near the speed camera and engages the brake
with the smart regeneration system,
the vehicle may not be able to keep the
speed limit. Always comply with the
road and traffic law.
Sensor precautions
• Never disassemble the radar or radar assembly, and never apply any impact
on it.
• If there is impact on or near the radar, the sensors may be damaged or not be
properly aligned near the radar, even
though a warning message does not
appear on the instrument cluster, the
Smart Regeneration System may not
operate properly. Have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
• If the radars have been replaced or repaired, have the vehicle inspected by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
• Use only genuine parts to repair the bumper where the radar is located.
• Do not install a license plate frame or other objects such as bumper sticker,
film, bumper guard, or bumper wrap
near the radar.
• The Smart Regeneration System may not work properly if the bumper has
been replaced, or the surroundings of
the radar has been damaged or
painted.
Hyundai_CE_en_US.book Page 20

• Do not spray the sensors or the surrounding area directly with high
pressure water.
Detecting vehicle
• The front sensors may not detect the vehicle ahead or may suddenly detect
the vehicle ahead, such as when the
smart regeneration system responds
slowly, when driving on a hill ends, or
when driving through a curve. The
regenerative braking intensity may
increase and decelerate your vehicle.
• Some vehicles in your lane may not be detected by the sensors:
B6003201
- Narrow vehicles such as motorcycles or bicycles
- Vehicles offset to one side
- Slow-moving vehicles or sudden decelerating vehicles
- Vehicles with small rear profile such as trailers with no loads
• When a vehicle in front of you merges out of the lane, the front sensors may
not detect the new stopped vehicle that
is now in front of your vehicle. Driving on curves
• The front sensors may not detect the
vehicle ahead if you are coasting on a
curve. The regenerative braking
intensity may automatically decrease
and accelerate the vehicle.
B6003202
• On curves, if a vehicle is detected in an adjacent lane, the regenerative braking
intensity may increase and decelerate
your vehicle.
B6003203
• If the front sensors suddenly detect the vehicle ahead, the regenerative braking
intensity may increase and decelerate
your vehicle.
Hyundai_CE_en_US.book Page 21

Driving Your Vehicle
6-22
Driving on hills
B6003204
When coasting uphill or downhill, the
front sensors may not detect the vehicle
ahead or suddenly detect the vehicle
ahead at the end of the incline or at the
point where the incline changes. The
regenerative braking intensity is adjusted
automatically changing your vehicle
speed. Brake as needed to reduce your
driving speed.
Changing lanes
B6003205
• When a vehicle moves into your lane from an adjacent lane, it cannot be
detected by the sensors until it is in the
sensor's detection range.
• The smart regeneration system may not immediately detect the vehicle when
your vehicle changes lanes abruptly.
Braking System
Power-Assist Brakes
Your vehicle has power-assisted brakes
that adjust automatically through normal
usage.
In the event of a vehicle power failure, the
power assist for the brakes will not work.
You can still stop your vehicle, but it will
require greater force and increased pedal
travel than normal. The stopping
distance, however, will be longer than
with power brakes.
Information • When the brake pedal is depressed under certain driving conditions or weather
conditions, you may temporarily hear a
noise. This is normal and does not indicate
a problem with your brakes.
• While driving on a road with deicing chemicals, brake noise or abnormal tire
wear may occur due to deicing chemicals.
In a safe traffic condition, additionally
apply the brakes to remove deicing
chemicals on the brake discs and pads.

WARNING Take the following precautions:
• Do not drive with your foot resting on the brake pedal. This will create
abnormal high brake temperatures,
excessive brake lining and pad wear,
and increased stopping distances. So
increase the regeneration braking level
with the left paddle shifter to decrease
the speed.
• When descending down a long or steep hill, use the paddle shifter to increase
the regeneration braking level in order
to decrease your speed without using
the brake pedal excessively. Applying
the brakes continuously will cause the
