Driving your vehicle

The Smart Cruise Control system
may not properly activate, if the radar
is totally contaminated, or if any sub-
stance is not detected after turning ON
the engine (e.g. in an open terrain).

Check Smart Cruise Control System

The message will appear when the
vehicle to vehicle distance control
system is not functioning normally.
We recommend that you take your
vehicle to an authorized retailer of
Genesis Branded products and have
the system checked.

• Do not apply 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 pres-
surized water directly on the
sensor or sensor cover.

• Be careful not to apply unnec-

essary force on the radar sen-
sor or sensor cover. If the sen-
sor is forcibly moved out of
proper alignment, the 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
retailer of Genesis Branded
products.

• If the front bumper becomes

damaged in the area around
the radar sensor, the Smart
Cruise Control System may not
operate properly. We recom-
mend you to have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized

Limitations of the system

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

On curves

• The Smart Cruise Control System

may not detect a moving vehicle in
your lane, and then your vehicle
could accelerate to the set speed.
Also, the vehicle speed will
decrease when the vehicle ahead
is recognized suddenly.

• Select the appropriate set speed

on curves and apply the brakes or
accelerator pedal if necessary.

Your vehicle 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 condi-
tions permit safe operation of the
Smart Cruise Control.

On inclines

• During uphill or downhill driving,

the Smart Cruise Control System
may not detect a moving vehicle in
your lane, and cause your vehicle
to accelerate to the set speed.
Also, the vehicle speed will rapidly
decrease when the vehicle ahead
is recognized suddenly.

• Select the appropriate set speed

on inclines and apply the brake or
accelerator pedal if necessary.

Driving your vehicle

Lane changing

• A vehicle which moves into your

lane from an adjacent lane cannot
be recognized by the sensor until it
is in the sensor's detection range.

• The radar may not detect immedi-

ately when a vehicle cuts in sud-
denly. Always pay attention to the
traffic, road and driving conditions.

• If a slower vehicle moves into your

lane, your speed may decrease to
maintain the distance to the vehicle
ahead.

• If a faster vehicle which moves into

your lane, your vehicle will acceler-
ate to the set speed.

Vehicle recognition

Some vehicles in your lane cannot
be recognized by the sensor:
- Narrow vehicles such as motorcy-

cles or bicycles

- Vehicles offset to one side
- Slow-moving vehicles or sudden-

decelerating vehicles 

- Stopped vehicles
- Vehicles with small rear profile such

as trailers with no loads

A vehicle ahead cannot be recog-
nized correctly by the sensor if any of
following occurs:
- 

When the vehicle is pointing

upwards due to overloading in the
trunk

- While the steering wheel is operat-

ing

- When driving to one side of the lane
- When driving on narrow lanes or on

curves

Apply the brake or accelerator pedal
if necessary.

OHI056208

OHI056203

• Your vehicle may accelerate when

a vehicle ahead of you disappears.

• When you are warned that the

vehicle ahead of you is not detect-
ed, drive with caution.

• When vehicles are at a standstill

and the vehicle in front of you
changes to the next lane, be care-
ful when your vehicle starts to
move because it may not recog-
nize the stopped vehicle in front of
you.

• Always look out for pedestrians

when your vehicle is maintaining a
distance with the vehicle ahead.

• Always be cautious for vehicles

with higher height or vehicles car-
rying loads that sticks out from the
back of the vehicle.

Driving your vehicle

The Smart Cruise Control System
may not operate temporarily due
to:
• Electrical interference
• Modifying the suspension
• Differences of tire abrasion or

tire pressure 

• Installing different type of tires

NOTICE

(Continued)
• The Smart Cruise Control

System may not recognize
complex driving situations so
always pay attention to driv-
ing conditions and control
your vehicle speed.

When using the Smart Cruise
Control take the following pre-
cautions:
• If an emergency stop is nec-

essary, you must apply the
brakes. The vehicle cannot be
stopped at every emergency
situation by using the Smart
Cruise Control System.

• Keep a safe distance accord-

ing to road conditions and
vehicle speed. If the vehicle to
vehicle distance is too close
during a high-speed driving, a
serious collision may result.

• Always maintain sufficient

braking distance and deceler-
ate your vehicle by applying
the brakes if necessary.

• 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 occur-
ring.

• Vehicles moving in front of

you with a frequent lane
change may cause a delay in
the system's reaction or may
cause the system to react to a
vehicle actually in an adjacent
lane. Always drive cautiously
to prevent unexpected and
sudden situations from occur-
ring.

• Always be aware of the select-

ed speed and vehicle to vehi-
cle distance.

Take the following precautions
when using the Lane Departure
Warning System (LDWS):
• ALWAYS check your sur-

roundings and the road condi-
tions before changing lanes.
The LDWS does not control
the vehicle to change lanes or
to stay in the current lane.

• Do not make abrupt maneu-

vers or turn the steering
wheel suddenly if the LDWS
alerts you that the vehicle is
departing from the lane.

• If the camera recognition sys-

tem does not properly detect
the lane, the LDWS may not
notify you if the vehicle
departs from the lane.

• The LDWS does not operate

until the vehicle speed reach-
es approximately 60 km/h (38
mph).
