2C_DriverAssistanceMalfunction

When Smart Cruise Control is not working properly, the “Check driver assistance system.” warning message appears, and the warning light illuminates on the instrument cluster. We recommend that your vehicle be inspected by an authorised HYUNDAI dealer.

2C_DriverAssistanceLimitedRadar

When the front radar cover or sensor is covered with snow, rain, or foreign material, it can reduce the detecting performance and temporarily limit or disable Smart Cruise Control.

If this occurs the “Driver assistance system limited. Radar blocked.” warning message appears for a certain period of time on the instrument cluster.

Smart Cruise Control operates properly when snow, rain or foreign material is removed.

Smart Cruise Control may not operate properly, or it may operate unexpectedly under the following circumstances:

• The detecting sensor or the surroundings are contaminated or damaged

• Washer fluid is continuously sprayed, or the wipers are on

• The camera lens is contaminated due to tinted, filmed or coated windscreen, damaged glass, or sticky foreign material (sticker, bug, etc.) on the glass

• Moisture is not removed or frozen on the windscreen

• The field of view of the front view camera is obstructed by sun glare

• Street light or light from an oncoming vehicle is reflected on the wet road surface, such as a puddle on the road

• The temperature around the front view camera is high or low

• An object is placed on the instrument panel

• The surroundings are very bright

• The surroundings are very dark, such as in a tunnel, etc.

• The light level changes suddenly, for example when entering or exiting a tunnel

• The light levels outside are low, and the headlamps are not on or are not bright

• Driving in heavy rain or snow, or thick fog

• Driving through steam, smoke or shadow

• Only part of the vehicle is detected

• The vehicle in front has no tail lamps, tail lamps are located unusually, etc.

• The light levels outside are low, and the tail lamps are not on or are not bright

• The rear of the front vehicle is small or does not look normal (for example, tilted, overturned, etc.)

• The front vehicle’s ground clearance is low or high

• A vehicle suddenly cuts in front

• Your vehicle is being towed

• Driving through a tunnel or iron bridge

• Driving near areas containing metal substances, such as a construction zone, railroad, etc.

• An object reflecting off the front radar such as a guardrail, nearby vehicle, etc.

• The bumper around the front radar is impacted, damaged or the front radar is out of position

• The temperature around the front radar is high or low

• Driving in vast areas where there are few vehicles or structures (for example, desert, meadow, suburb, etc.)

• The vehicle in front is made of material that does not reflect on the front radar

• Driving near a highway (or motorway) interchange or tollgate

• Driving on a slippery surface due to snow, water puddle, ice, etc.

• Driving on a curved road

• The vehicle in front is detected late

• The vehicle in front is suddenly blocked by a obstacle

• The vehicle in front suddenly changes lane or suddenly reduces speed

• The vehicle in front is bent out of shape

• The front vehicle’s speed is fast or slow

• With a vehicle in front, your vehicle changes lane at low speed

• The vehicle in front is covered with snow

• Unstable driving

• You are on a roundabout and the vehicle in front is not detected

• You are continuously driving in a circle

• Driving in a car park

• Driving through a construction area, unpaved road, partial paved road, uneven road, speed bumps, etc.

• Driving on an incline road, curved road, etc.

• Driving on a road with trees or streetlights

• The adverse road conditions cause excessive vehicle vibrations whilst driving

• Your vehicle height is low or high due to heavy loads, abnormal tyre pressure, etc.

• Driving on a narrow road where trees or grass are overgrown

• There is interference from electromagnetic waves, such as driving in an area with strong radio waves or electrical noise

• Driving on a curved road

  

  2C_FCADrivingOnCurveLoad

  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.

  

  2C_SCCDrivingOnCurveLoad_3

  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 conditions permit safe operation of the Smart Cruise Control.

• Driving on a gradient

  

  2C_FCADrivingOnInclinedRoad

  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

  

  2C_FCAChangingLane

  1. Your vehicle
  2. Lane changing vehicle

  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, press the brake pedal to reduce your driving speed in order to maintain a safe distance.

• Situations when detecting are limited

  

  2C_SCCDetectingVehicle

  

  2C_FCADetectingVehicle

  In the following cases, some vehicles, pedestrians or animals in your lane cannot be detected by the sensor:

  • Vehicles offset to one side

  • Slow-moving vehicles or sudden decelerating vehicles

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

  • Vehicles that have the front lifted due to heavy loads

  • Vehicles within about 2 m from your vehicle

  • 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 vehicle speed by pressing the brake pedal according to the road and driving conditions ahead.

• Adjust your vehicle speed by pressing 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:

  • You are steering your vehicle

  • Driving on narrow or sharply curved roads

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

  Always pay attention to road and driving conditions whilst driving.

  

  2C_SCCDrivingNarrowRoad

• 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 whilst driving.

  

  2C_SCCVehicleAheadDisappears

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