Smart Regeneration System
Precautions
• Always monitor the distance to vehicles
ahead on the road. The smart
regeneration system is not a substitute
for safe driving practices, but a
supplemental function only.
• Always maintain a safe distance from
the vehicles ahead and adjust your
vehicle speed to the road conditions.
The smart regeneration system may not
recognize unexpected and sudden
situations or complex driving
situations.
General precautions
• Always maintain a safe distance from
the vehicles ahead and adjust your
vehicle speed depending on the road
conditions.
• Always prepare for unexpected
situations and depress the brake pedal
to decelerate when necessary. The
smart regeneration system cannot
react to pedestrians, vehicles making a
sudden stop and vehicles coming from
the opposite lane.
• If the vehicle ahead frequently changes
the lane, keep your eyes forward to be
prepared for hazardous situations. In
this case, the smart regeneration
system may respond late and may
inappropriately respond to vehicle
movements from the side lanes.
• The driver must depress the brake
pedal when stopping the vehicle.
• Depress the brake pedal to decelerate
in the following conditions when:
- The front part of the vehicle is lifted
up because of the cargo loaded on
the rear part of the vehicle.
- You are operating the steering wheel.
- You are not driving in the center of
the lane.
- You are driving on a narrow or curved
road.
• The smart regeneration system may be
temporarily turn off when exposed to
strong electromagnetic waves.
• If the vehicle starts coasting near the
speed camera and engages the brake
with the smart regeneration system,
the vehicle may not be able to keep the
speed limit. Always comply with the
road and traffic law.
Sensor precautions
• Never disassemble the radar or radar
assembly, and never apply any impact
on it.
• If there is impact on or near the radar,
the sensors may be damaged or not be
properly aligned near the radar, even
though a warning message does not
appear on the instrument cluster, the
Smart Regeneration System may not
operate properly. Have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
• If the radars have been replaced or
repaired, have the vehicle inspected by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
• Use only genuine parts to repair the
bumper where the radar is located.
• Do not install a license plate frame or
other objects such as bumper sticker,
film, bumper guard, or bumper wrap
near the radar.
• The Smart Regeneration System may
not work properly if the bumper has
been replaced, or the surroundings of
the radar has been damaged or
painted.
