2022-2024 Hyundai MSLA Feature: Speed Limit Assist Guide

Hyundai is providing important information to owners of 2022-2024 Hyundai Tucson and Santa Cruz vehicles regarding the Manual Speed Limit Assist (MSLA) feature. This driver-assistance system is designed to help you set and maintain a maximum speed, assisting in avoiding unintended speeding.

Understanding the Hyundai MSLA Feature

The Hyundai MSLA feature allows drivers to set a specific maximum speed for their vehicle. This can be particularly useful for adhering to speed limits or managing speed in certain driving conditions. The system aims to provide a helpful tool for drivers to stay within desired speed parameters.

Activating the Manual Speed Limit Assist

To activate the Hyundai MSLA feature, locate the driving assist button on your steering wheel. Press and hold this button for approximately 1.5 to 3 seconds. Once activated, a "SPEED LIMIT" indicator will illuminate on your instrument cluster, displaying the set speed next to it, for example, "LIMIT 20 MPH".

Behavior When Exceeding the Set Speed

If you surpass the preset speed limit while the Hyundai MSLA feature is active, the "SPEED LIMIT" indicator will begin to blink, and an audible chime will sound. These warnings will continue until your vehicle's speed returns to within the set limit. It's important to note that this warning behavior will only occur if you depress the accelerator pedal beyond a specific pressure point, which activates the vehicle's kickdown function.

Disengaging and Turning Off MSLA

There are two ways to stop the Hyundai MSLA feature from actively limiting your speed. To temporarily disengage the system, press the pause/resume button. If you wish to completely turn off the MSLA feature, press the driving assist button again.

Special Operating Conditions

If the Hyundai MSLA feature is turned on while your vehicle is not moving or is traveling at a speed slower than 20 mph, the system will automatically set the maximum speed limit to 20 mph. This ensures a safe default setting when the vehicle is stationary or moving slowly.

Safe Steering Methods

For optimal control and safety while driving, Hyundai recommends the following safe steering practices:

• Adjust your driver's seat as far to the rear as possible while still maintaining full ability to control the vehicle.
• Place both hands on opposite sides of the steering wheel.
• Utilize one of the three recognized safe steering methods: hand-to-hand steering, hand-over-hand steering, or one-hand steering.
