The Smart Recuperation System controls
the regenerative braking automatically
according to the road gradient and
driving condition of the vehicle in front.
The system minimizes the unnecessary
operation of the brake and acceleration
pedal, improving the electric energy
efficiency and assisting the driver.
System setting
OOSEV040545L
The Smart Recuperation System enters
the ready status when:
The gear is in P (Park) and select 'User
settings → ECO vehicle → Smart
recuperation' on the User Settings mode.
The setting is maintained when the
vehicle is restarted.
To activate Smart Recuperation
System
With 'AUTO' for the regenerative braking
level displayed on the cluster, the
regenerative braking level is controlled
automatically when vehicle speed is
above 10 km/h (6 mph) and one of the
condition below is met.
- The road gradient changes
- Distance from the vehicle ahead reduces or increases
- Speed of the vehicle ahead reduces or increases
WARNING
When vehicle speed is under 10 km/h (6
mph), the Smart Recuperation System
is cancelled. The driver must adjust
the vehicle speed by depressing the
accelerator or brake pedal according to
the road condition ahead and driving
condition.

Information
VSM does not operate when: • Driving on a banked road such as
gradient or incline.
• Driving in reverse.
• The ESC OFF indicator light is on.
• The EPS (Electric power steering) warning light (
) is on or blinks.
WARNING
If the ESC indicator light (
) or EPS
warning light () stays illuminated
or blinks, your vehicle may have
a malfunction with VSM. When
the warning light illuminates we
recommend that the vehicle be
checked by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon as possible.
NOTICE
Driving with wheels and tires with
different sizes may cause VSM to
malfunction. Before replacing tires,
make sure all four tires and wheels are
the same size. Never drive the vehicle
with different sized tires and wheels
installed.
Hill-Start Assist Control (HAC)
Hill-Start Assist Control (HAC) helps
prevent the vehicle from rolling
backwards when starting a vehicle from
a stop on a hill. The system operates the
brakes automatically for approximately
3 seconds and releases the brake after 3
seconds or when the accelerator pedal is
depressed.
WARNING
Always be ready to depress the
accelerator pedal when starting off on
a incline. The HAC activates only for
approximately 5 seconds.
Information
• HAC does not operate when the shift
lever is in P (Park) or N (Neutral).
• HAC activates even when ESC
(Electronic Stability Control) is off.
However, it does not activate, when
ESC does not operate normally.

Good braking practices
WARNING
Whenever leaving the vehicle or
parking, always come to a complete
stop and continue to depress the brake
pedal. Move the shift lever into the P
(Park) position, then apply the parking
brake, and place the START/STOP
button in the LOCK/OFF position.
Vehicles parked with the parking brake
not applied or not fully engaged may
roll inadvertently and may cause injury
to the driver and others. ALWAYS apply
the parking brake before exiting the
vehicle. Wet brakes can be dangerous! The
brakes may get wet if the vehicle is
driven through standing water or if it
is washed. Your vehicle will not stop as
quickly if the brakes are wet. Wet brakes
may cause the vehicle to pull to one side.
To dry the brakes, apply the brakes
lightly until the braking action returns
to normal, taking care to keep the
vehicle under control at all times. If the
braking action does not return to normal,
stop as soon as it is safe to do so. We
recommend that you call an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer for assistance.
DO NOT drive with your foot resting on
the brake pedal. Even light, but constant
pedal pressure can result in the brakes
overheating, brake wear, and possibly
even brake failure.
If a tire goes flat while you are driving,
apply the brakes gently and keep the
vehicle pointed straight ahead while you
slow down. When you are moving slowly
enough for it to be safe to do so, pull off
the road and stop in a safe location.
Keep your foot firmly on the brake pedal
when the vehicle is stopped to prevent
the vehicle from rolling forward

Stopping vehicle and ending brake control • When the vehicle is stopped due
to emergency braking, the ‘Drive
carefully’ warning message will
appear on the cluster.
For your safety, the driver should
depress the brake pedal immediately
and check the surroundings.
• Brake control will end after the vehicle
is stopped by emergency braking for
approximately 2 seconds.
warning
• For your safety, change the Settings
after parking the vehicle at a safe
location.
• With ‘Active Assist’ or ‘Warning Only’
selected, when esC is turned off by
pressing and holding the esC oFF
button, Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist will turn off automatically.
In this case, Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist cannot be set
from the Settings menu and the

warning light will illuminate on the
cluster which is normal. if esC is
turned on by pressing the esC oFF
button, Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist will maintain the last setting.
• Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
does not operate in all situations or
cannot avoid all collisions. •
The driver should hold the
responsibility to control the vehicle.
Do not solely depend on Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist. Rather,
maintain a safe braking distance, and
if necessary, depress the brake pedal
to reduce driving speed or to stop
the vehicle.
• Never deliberately operate Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist on people,
objects, etc. It may cause serious
injury or death.
• Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist may not operate if the driver
depresses the brake pedal to avoid
collision.
• Depending on the road and driving
conditions, Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist may warn the driver
late or may not warn the driver.
• During Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist operation, the vehicle may
stop suddenly injuring passengers
and shifting loose objects. Always
have the seat belt on and keep loose
objects secured.
• If any other system’s warning
message is displayed or audible
warning is generated, Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist warning
message may not be displayed
and audible warning may not be
generated.
• You may not hear the warning sound
of Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist if the surrounding is noisy.
• Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist may turn off or may not
operate properly or may operate
unnecessarily depending on the road
conditions and the surroundings.
