Smart regeneration system abnormalities and limitations
Smart regeneration system abnormalities
If a warning message like the one in the picture is displayed, the ‘AUTO’ wording is displayed as the regenerative braking stage and the smart regeneration system is automatically released.
Check the condition of the sensor cover as it may be due to foreign matter or obstruction of the front radar sensor. After removing the foreign matter and checking the condition, pull the right paddle shift lever for more than 1 second to use the system again.
If it does not operate properly even after removing the foreign matter, there is a problem with the sensor, so request inspection and maintenance from our direct service center or a service partner.
Smart regeneration system limitations (front radar)
The smart regeneration system may not operate properly in driving situations that exceed the performance of the front radar sensor.
In the following cases, the smart regeneration system may not respond properly or unexpected system operation may occur, so the driver must be careful.
When coasting on a curved road, the regenerative braking stage may automatically decrease because it does not recognize a vehicle in the same lane, which may increase the vehicle speed. On a curved road, check the road conditions and driving conditions ahead, and if necessary, step on the brake pedal to directly control the speed.
In addition, if a preceding vehicle is suddenly recognized, the regenerative braking stage may automatically increase, slowing down the vehicle.
On a curved road, check the road conditions and driving conditions ahead, and if necessary, step on the brake pedal to directly control the speed.
When driving on a curved road
Vehicles in other lanes may be detected and affect the speed. Check the road conditions and driving conditions ahead, and if necessary, step on the brake pedal to directly control the speed. In this case, you can prevent unnecessary deceleration by stepping on the accelerator pedal. Check the surrounding traffic conditions before use.
When driving on a sloped road
When coasting on an uphill or downhill road, the regenerative braking stage may automatically decrease because the vehicle in the same lane is not recognized, which may increase the vehicle speed.
In addition, if a preceding vehicle is suddenly recognized, the regenerative braking stage may automatically increase, slowing down the vehicle.
When going uphill or downhill, check the road conditions and driving conditions ahead, and if necessary, step on the brake pedal to directly control the speed.
When changing lanes
When a vehicle in the adjacent lane changes to the same lane, the vehicle ahead may not be recognized until it enters the detection range of the sensor.
Always be careful, as the sensor may detect vehicles that suddenly cut in late.
Vehicle recognition
Even if they are in the same lane, the sensor may not detect the following vehicles that are outside the detection range:
Small vehicles such as motorcycles, bicycles, and cultivators
Vehicles that are driving to one side
Vehicles that are very slow or decelerating rapidly
Stopped vehicles (if the vehicle in front moves away, the stopped vehicle is not recognized)
Vehicles with a small rear end (such as an unloaded trailer)
Warning
The smart regeneration system is a convenience feature, not a safety feature, and driving the vehicle must be done entirely at the driver’s discretion. Always be careful for the safety of the vehicle. If the front detection sensor or sensor cover is contaminated with foreign substances such as snow or rain, the sensor’s detection performance may deteriorate and the function may not operate properly. Always keep the sensor and the area around the sensor clean.
If the front safety warning light is on, the smart regeneration system may not operate properly. Watch the road conditions ahead and, if necessary, step on the brake pedal to directly control the vehicle speed.
The smart regeneration system is a convenience function that automatically controls the regenerative braking stage when coasting. This function does not stop the vehicle completely or avoid a collision. It may not be able to decelerate sufficiently due to a certain speed difference between the vehicles ahead, a sudden stop of the vehicle ahead, a sudden cut-in of the vehicle ahead, a steep slope, etc. Pay attention to the front and respond to dangerous situations. Depress the brake pedal as necessary to decelerate. Always use the brake pedal when you need to stop the vehicle.
Always be careful as the vehicle ahead may not be recognized accurately in the following situations: If the cargo area is overloaded and the front of the vehicle is lifted
If the steering wheel is being operated
If driving on one side of the lane
If driving on a narrow or curved road
Check the road conditions and driving conditions ahead, and if necessary, step on the brake pedal to directly control the speed.
When you need to stop the vehicle, always use the brake pedal.
Keep a safe distance according to the vehicle speed and road conditions.
The vehicle cannot respond to vehicles stopped in front, vehicles that stop suddenly, pedestrians, or oncoming vehicles. Always watch ahead and be careful to respond to unexpected situations.
If the vehicle ahead changes lanes frequently, the reaction speed may be slow and may react to vehicles in the adjacent lane. Watch ahead and be careful to respond to dangerous situations.
The smart regeneration system is a convenience device for the driver, not a safety device. The driver must use his or her own judgment to ensure vehicle safety and control.
Always secure a safe braking distance, and if necessary, step on the brake pedal to directly reduce the speed. The smart regeneration system cannot recognize complex traffic situations, so you must always pay attention to traffic conditions while it is in operation, and the driver must manually control the vehicle speed in dangerous situations.
In order to use the smart regeneration system more safely, you must read and practice the user manual thoroughly before using it.
If you start coasting at a close distance from a speed camera while driving at a speed limit exceeding the highway speed camera speed limit, you may not be able to comply with the speed limit. Drive safely by complying with traffic laws.
Caution
Do not arbitrarily attach accessories (license plate molding, stickers, etc.) or replace the grille within the detection area of the forward detection sensor. This may affect the performance of the sensor.
Keep the sensor or the area around the grille clean.
Wash the car with a soft cloth to prevent damage to the cover when washing the car. Also, do not spray water directly with a high-pressure car wash on the sensor mounted on the back of the grille.
Avoid impacts such as a frontal collision to the sensor or the area around the sensor. If the sensor moves out of its normal position due to impact, the system may not operate properly even if there is no warning on the cluster. Visit our direct service center or service partner for inspection. Be sure to use a sensor cover with suitable quality and performance.
Genuine parts are parts that the company guarantees for quality and performance. Do not arbitrarily paint or paint the sensor cover.
If the smart regeneration system is automatically released, watch the road conditions ahead and, if necessary, step on the brake pedal to directly control the vehicle speed.
The smart regeneration system may be momentarily released by strong electromagnetic waves.
