When Driving

i-ACTIVSENSE

    NOTE

y

  Under the following conditions, the 

radar sensor (front) may not be able to 

detect vehicles ahead or obstructions 

correctly and each system may not 

operate normally.

y

  The rear surface of a vehicle 

ahead does not re

À

 ect radio waves 

effectively, such as an unloaded 

trailer or an automobile with a 

loading platform covered by a soft 

top, vehicles with a hard plastic 

tailgate, and round-shaped vehicles.

y

  Vehicles ahead with low vehicle 

height and thus less area for 

re

À

 ecting radio waves.

y

  Visibility is reduced due to a vehicle 

ahead casting off water, snow, or 

sand from its tires and onto your 

windshield.

y

  The luggage compartment is loaded 

with heavy objects or the rear 

passenger seats are occupied.

y

  Ice, snow, or soiling is on the front 

surface of the front emblem.

y

  During inclement weather such as 

rain, snow, or sand storms.

y

  When driving near facilities or 

objects emitting strong radio waves.

y

  Under the following conditions, the 

radar sensor (front) may not be able to 

detect vehicles ahead or obstructions.

y

  The beginning and end of a curve.

y

  Roads with continuous curves.

y

  Narrow lane roads due to road 

construction or lane closures.

y

  The vehicle ahead enters the radar 

sensor's blind spot.

y

  The vehicle ahead is running 

abnormally due to accident or 

vehicle damage.

y

  Roads with repeated up and down 

slopes

y

  Driving on poor roads or unpaved 

roads.

y

  The distance between your vehicle 

and the vehicle ahead is extremely 

short.

y

  A vehicle suddenly comes close such 

as by cutting into the lane.

y

  To prevent incorrect operation of the 

system, use tires of the same speci

¿

 ed 

size, manufacturer, brand, and tread 

pattern on all four wheels. In addition, 

do not use tires with signi

¿

 cantly 

different wear patterns or tire pressures 

on the same vehicle (Including the 

temporary spare tire).

y

  If the battery power is weak, the system 

may not operate correctly.

y

  If the vehicle is driven on a road with 

little traf

¿

 c and few vehicles ahead or 

obstructions for the radar sensor (front) 

to detect, the sensor detects that the 

radar sensor (front) is dirty and the 

Smart Brake Support/Smart City Brake 

Support (SBS/SCBS) Warning Light 

(amber) may be temporarily turned 

on. However, it does not indicate a 

malfunction.
