~1min read
  • When the AEB system is turned off, the AEB warning lamp illuminates. (The warning message does not appear.)
  • If the sensor or cover is contaminated or blocked by foreign matter such as snow, the AEB warning lamp and message appear. In this case, the AEB system may not operate temporarily, but this does not indicate a malfunction of the AEB system. Clean the sensor or cover with a soft cloth.
  • If there is a malfunction in the AEB system, the AEB warning lamp and message will appear. Have your vehicle inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
  • When the ESC (Electronic Stability Control) or SCC (Smart Cruise Control) warning message appears, the AEB warning message may also appear, but this does not indicate a malfunction of the AEB system.
