Smart Cruise Control may have limits to its ability to detect distance to the vehicle ahead due to road and traffic conditions.

• Driving on a curved load

  

  On curves, Smart Cruise Control may not detect a vehicle in the same lane, and may accelerate to the set speed. Also, vehicle speed may rapidly decrease when the vehicle ahead is detected suddenly.

  Select the appropriate set speed on curves and apply the brake pedal or accelerator pedal according to the road and driving conditions ahead.

  

  Your driving speed can be reduced due to a vehicle in the adjacent lane. Apply the accelerator pedal and select the appropriate set speed. Check to be sure that the road conditions permit safe operation of the Smart Cruise Control.

• Driving on an inclined road

  

  During uphill or downhill driving, the Smart Cruise Control may not detect a moving vehicle in your lane, and cause your vehicle to accelerate to the set speed. Also, vehicle speed will rapidly decrease when the vehicle ahead is detected suddenly.

  Select the appropriate set speed on inclines and apply the brake pedal or accelerator pedal according to the road and driving conditions ahead.

• Changing lanes

  

  [A] : Your vehicle [B] : Lane changing

  When a vehicle moves into your lane from an adjacent lane, it cannot be detected by the sensor until it is in the sensor's detection range. Smart Cruise Control may not immediately detect the vehicle when the vehicle changes lanes abruptly.

  In this case, you must maintain a safe braking distance, and if necessary, depress the brake pedal to reduce your driving speed in order to maintain a safe distance.

• Detecting vehicle

  

  In the following cases, some vehicles in your lane cannot be detected by the sensor. If necessary, adjust your driving speed :

  • Vehicles offset to one side

  • Slow-moving vehicles or sudden decelerating vehicles

  • Oncoming vehicles

  • Stopped vehicles

  • Vehicles with small rear profile, such as trailers

  • Narrow vehicles, such as motorcycles or bicycles

  • Special vehicles

  • Animals and pedestrians

  Adjust your driving speed by depressing the brake pedal according to the road and driving conditions ahead.

  

  In the following cases, the vehicle in front cannot be detected by the sensor. If necessary, adjust your driving speed :

  • Vehicles with higher ground clearance or vehicles carrying loads that stick out of the back of the vehicle

  • Vehicles that has the front lifted due to heavy loads

  • You are steering your vehicle

  • Driving on narrow or sharply curved roads

  Adjust your driving speed by depressingthe brake pedal according to theroad and driving conditions ahead.

• When a vehicle ahead disappears at an intersection, your vehicle may accelerate.

  Always pay attention to road and driving conditions while driving.

  

• When a vehicle in front of you merges out of the lane, Smart Cruise Control may not immediately detect the new vehicle that is now in front of you. Always pay attention to road and driving conditions while driving.

  

• Always look out for pedestrians when your vehicle is maintaining a distance with the vehicle ahead.

  Always pay attention to road and driving conditions while driving.
