Smart Cruise Control system allows you
to program the vehicle to help maintain
the desired speed and minimum distance
between the vehicle ahead.
Smart Cruise Control system will
automatically adjust your vehicle speed
to maintain your programmed speed
and following distance without requiring
you to depress the accelerator or brake pedals.
WARNING
For your safety, please read the owner's
manual before using Smart Cruise
Control system.
WARNING
Smart Cruise Control system is not a
substitute for safe driving practices, but
a convenience function only. It is the
responsibility of the driver to always
check the speed and distance to the
vehicle ahead.
WARNING
Take the following precautions: • Always set the vehicle speed under
the speed limit in your country.
• If Smart Cruise Control is left on,
(cruise (
) indicator
light in the instrument cluster is
illuminated) Smart Cruise Control
can be activated unintentionally.
Keep Smart Cruise Control system
off (cruise (
) indicator
light OFF) when Smart Cruise Control
is not in use, to avoid inadvertently
setting a speed.
• Use Smart Cruise Control system only
when traveling on open highways in
good weather.

Distance on the LCD display will
illuminate.
4. Release the accelerator pedal. The
desired speed will automatically be
maintained.
If there is a vehicle in front of you, the
speed may decrease to maintain the
distance to the vehicle ahead.
On a steep grade, the vehicle may slow
down or speed up slightly while going
uphill or downhill.
Information
• Vehicle speed may decrease on an
upward slope and increase on a downward slope.
• When you are setting the cruise control
speed, with a vehicle in front and your vehicle speed is between 0 ~ 30 km/h (0 ~ 20 mph), the speed will set to 30 km/h (20 mph).

when Smart Cruise Control is on, depress
the accelerator pedal. Increased speed
will not interfere with Smart Cruise
Control operation or change the set speed.
To return to the set speed, take your foot
off the accelerator pedal.
If you push the toggle switch down
(SET-) at increased speed, the set speed
is updated.
Information

When there is a vehicle ahead of you
in your lane:
Distance 4 Distance 3ODN8069051ODN8069053
Distance 2 Distance 1ODN8069052a
Your vehicle speed will slow down or
speed up to maintain the selected
distance.
If the vehicle ahead speeds up, your
vehicle will travel at a steady cruising
speed after accelerating to the set speed.
If distance from the front vehicle has
been changed due to accelerating or
decelerating of the front vehicle, the
distance on the LCD display may change.
WARNING
ODN8H069205L
When using Smart Cruise Control
system: • The warning message appears and
warning chime sounds if the vehicle
is unable to maintain the selected
distance from the vehicle ahead.
• If the warning message appears and
warning chime sounds, depress the
brake pedal to actively adjust the
vehicle speed, and the distance to
the vehicle ahead.
• Even if the warning message does
not appear and warning chime does
not sound, always pay attention to
the driving conditions to prevent
dangerous situations from occurring.
• Playing the vehicle audio system at
high volume may prevent occupants
from hearing the system warning sounds.

Sensor to detect distance to the
vehicle ahead (Front view camera
and Front Radar)
„„Front view camera
ODN8A069024
Front view camera
The front view camera is a sensor
detecting the lane. If the sensors are
covered with snow, rain or foreign
substance, the system may temporarily
be cancelled and not work properly
until the system is cancelled due to the
degradation of the sensor’s detection
performance. Always keep the sensor clean. 
Refer to “Lane Keeping Assist (LKA)”
for cautions for the front camera.
„„Front radar
ODN8A069023
Front radar
The front radar is a sensor detecting
vehicles in front and maintains the
distance between them. If the sensors are covered with snow, rain
or foreign substance, the system may
temporarily be cancelled and not work
properly until the system is cancelled
due to the degradation of the sensor’s
detection performance. Always keep the sensor clean.
CAUTION
• Do not apply license plate frame or
foreign objects such as a bumper
sticker or a bumper guard near the
radar sensor. Doing so may adversely
affect the sensing performance of
the radar.
• Always keep the radar sensor and
lens cover clean and free of dirt and debris.
• Use only a soft cloth to wash the
vehicle. Do not spray pressurized
water directly on the sensor or
sensor cover.
• Be careful not to apply unnecessary
force on the radar sensor or sensor
cover. If the sensor is forcibly
moved out of proper alignment,
Smart Cruise Control system
may not operate correctly. In this
case, a warning message may not
be displayed. Have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
• If the front bumper becomes
damaged in the area around the
radar sensor, Smart Cruise Control
system may not operate properly.
Have the vehicle inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
• Use only genuine HYUNDAI parts to
repair or replace a damaged sensor
or sensor cover. Do not apply paint to
the sensor cover.

Warning message
OTM058061L
Smart Cruise Control disabled.
Radar blocked
When the sensor lens cover is blocked
with dirt, snow, or debris, Smart Cruise
Control system operation may stop
temporarily. If this occurs, a warning
message will appear on the cluster LCD
display. Remove any dirt, snow, or debris
and clean the radar sensor lens cover
before operating Smart Cruise Control
system. Smart Cruise Control system
may not properly activate, if the radar is
totally covered, or if any substance is not
detected after turning on the engine
(e.g. in an open terrain).
Information
For the SCC operation is temporarily
stopped if the radar is blocked, but you
wish to use cruise control mode (speed
control function), you must convert to the
cruise control mode (refer to "To convert
to Cruise Control mode" in the following page.
OIK057109L
Check Smart Cruise Control System
The message will appear when the
vehicle to vehicle distance control
system is not functioning normally.
Have the vehicle inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

Information
• Navigation-based Smart Cruise Control
is limited in other countries.
• The system may not operate due to the existence of leading vehicles and the driving situations of the vehicle.
• The system operates regardless of
whether the sharp curve warning appears on the navigation, but the time
gap could occur between the warning and system operation.
• The navigation only provides curve information within permitted speed ranges so that the system may not
decrease its speed during extreme over-speed driving.
• The system is not designed to work on
highways other than mentioned as a
controlled access road.
• The system automatically cancels when
you leave the highway. •
Highway Driving Assist and Navigation-based Smart Cruise
Control uses the same
symbol
that indicates the status of the system.
Therefore, even if Navigation-based
Cruise Control is off, the
symbol
may be displayed.
• If there is a problem with Navigation-
based Smart Cruise Control, the system
cannot be activated in the AVN system
screen, and the
symbol will turn
off. However, if Highway Driving Assist is activated, the
symbol will be
displayed.
• After you pass through a tollgate on a
highway, the system operates based
on the first lane. If you enter one of
the other lanes, the system might not
properly decelerate.
• If you over speed, the system may not decelerate the vehicle in a curve.
• Deceleration by the system may not be
sufficient if the driver accelerates while the system is operating,
• Deceleration by the system may not be
sufficient due to road conditions such
as uneven road surfaces, narrow lanes, etc.
• If the road is controlled, due to
construction or holiday events, the
system might not work properly.
