Contents:

➀ Cruise indicator
➁ Set speed
➂ Vehicle-to-vehicle distance

The smart cruise control system allows you to program the vehicle to maintain a constant speed and a predetermined distance to the vehicle ahead without depressing the accelerator or brake pedal.

WARNING - Smart cruise control system Inadvertent Activation

If the smart cruise control system is left on (CRUISE indicator in the instrument cluster illuminated), it can be activated inadvertently. Keep the smart cruise control system off (CRUISE indicator off) when the smart cruise control system is not in use to avoid setting a speed which the driver is not aware of.

WARNING - Smart cruise control system Limitations

The smart cruise control system is a supplemental system and is not a substitute for safe driving practices. It is the responsibility of the driver to always check the speed and distance to the vehicle ahead.
Use the smart cruise control system only when traveling on open highways in good weather.
Do not use the smart cruise control when it may not be safe to keep the car at a constant speed. For instance.
- Highway interchange and tollgate
- Road surrounded by multiple steel constructions (subway construction, steel tunnel, etc)
- Parking lot
- Lanes beside guard rail on a road
- Slippery road with rain, ice, or snow
- Abrupt curved road
- Steep hills
- Windy roads
- Off roads
- Roads under construction
- Rumble strip
- When driving near crash barriers
- When driving on a sharp curve
- When the vehicle sensing ability decreases due to vehicle modification resulting level difference of the vehicle's front and rear
- When driving in heavy traffic or when traffic conditions make it difficult to drive at a constant speed
Limited visibility (rain, snow, smog, etc.)
The smart cruise control system cannot recognize a stopped vehicle, pedestrians or an oncoming vehicle. Always look ahead cautiously to prevent unexpected and sudden situations from occurring.
Pay particular attention to the driving conditions whenever using the smart cruise control system.
Be careful when driving downhill using the SCC.
Cruise function should not be used when the vehicle is being towed to prevent any damage.
Always set the vehicle speed under the speed limit.
Always pay continuous attention to road and driving even when the smart cruise control system is being operated.

To adjust the sensitivity of smart cruise control system

The sensitivity of vehicle speed when following the front vehicle to maintain the set distance can be adjusted. Go to the User Settings Mode (Driver Assistance) and select SCC (Smart Cruise Control). You may select one of the three stages you prefer.

• Slow:

Vehicle speed to the vehicle ahead to maintain the set distance is slower than normal speed.

• Normal:

Vehicle speed to the vehicle ahead to maintain the set distance is normal

• Fast:

Vehicle speed to the vehicle ahead to maintain the set distance is faster than normal speed.

✽ NOTICE

The system remembers the last selected mode.

To convert to cruise control mode

The driver may choose to only use the cruise control mode (speed control function) by doing as follows:

1.Turn the smart cruise control system on (the cruise indicator light will be on but the system will not be activated).

2.Push the distance to distance switch for more than 2 seconds.

3.Choose between "Smart cruise control (SCC) mode" and "Cruise control (CC) mode".

When using the cruise control mode, you must manually assess the distance to other vehicles as the system will not automatically brake to slow down for other vehicles.

When the system is canceled using the CRUISE button or the CRUISE button is used after the engine is turned on, the Smart Cruise Control mode will turn on.

WARNING

When using the cruise control mode, you must manually assess the distance to other vehicles as the system will not automatically brake to slow down for other vehicles.
