On Slopes

- When driving uphill or downhill, the Smart Cruise Control system may not immediately detect a moving vehicle in your lane and may cause your vehicle to accelerate to the set speed. In addition, vehicle speed may decrease rapidly when a vehicle ahead is suddenly detected.
- Select an appropriate set speed on slopes and adjust your vehicle speed by depressing the accelerator pedal or the brake pedal according to the road and driving conditions ahead.
Lane Changes

- A vehicle moving into your lane from an adjacent lane cannot be detected by the sensor until it is within the sensor's detection range.
- The sensor may not immediately detect when a vehicle suddenly cuts in. Always pay attention to traffic, road, and driving conditions.
- If a vehicle approaching your lane is slower than your vehicle, your speed may decrease to maintain the distance to the vehicle ahead.
• If a vehicle approaching you in the adjacent lane is faster than your vehicle, your vehicle will accelerate to the set speed.

- Your vehicle may accelerate when a vehicle ahead of you leaves the sensor range and is no longer detected.
- When you are warned that a vehicle ahead is not detected, drive with caution.
