The Blind Spot Detection System
(BSD) uses radar sensors in the rear
bumper to monitor and warn the driv-
er of an approaching vehicle in the
driver's blind spot area.
The system monitors the rear area of
the vehicle and provides information
to the driver with an audible alert and
an indicator on the outer side view
mirrors.(1) BSD (Blind Spot Detection)
The blind spot detection range
varies relative to vehicle speed.
Note that if your vehicle is travel-
ing much faster than the vehicles
around you, the warning will not
occur.
(2) LCA (Lane Change Assist) The Lane Change Assist feature
will alert you when a vehicle is
approaching in an adjacent lane
at a high rate of speed. If the driv-
er activates the turn signal when
the system detects an oncoming
vehicle, the system sounds an
audible alert.
(3) RCTA (Rear Cross Traffic Alert) The Rear Cross Traffic Alert fea-
ture monitors approaching cross
traffic from the left and right side
of the vehicle when your vehicle is
in reverse. The feature will operate
when the vehicle is moving in
reverse below about 6 mph (10
km/h). If oncoming cross traffic is
detected a warning chime will
sound. The time of alert varies
according to the speed difference
between you and the approaching
vehicle.

Blind spot area
Closing at high speed
Always be aware of road con-
ditions while driving and be
alert for unexpected situations
even though the Blind Spot
Detection System is operating.
The Blind Spot Detection
System (BSD) is not a substi-
tute for proper and safe driv-
ing. Always drive safely and
use caution when changing
lanes or backing up the vehi-
cle. The Blind Spot Detection
System (BSD) may not detect
every object alongside the
vehicle.
WARNING

5-58
Driving your vehicle
Detecting sensor
The sensors are located inside the
rear bumper.
Always keep the rear bumper clean
for the proper operation of the sys-
tem.
Warning message
Blind Spot Detection disabled.
Radar blocked
This warning message may appearwhen :
- One or both of the sensors on therear bumper is blocked by dirt or
snow or a foreign object.
- Driving in rural areas where the BSD sensor does not detect
another vehicle for an extended
period of time.
- When there is inclement weather such as heavy snow or rain. - A trailer or carrier is installed. To
use the BSD system, remove the
trailer or carrier from your vehicle.
If any of these conditions occur, the
light on the BSD switch and the sys-
tem will turn off automatically.
When the BSD cancelled warning
message is displayed in the cluster,
check to make sure that the rear
bumper is free from any dirt or snow
in the areas where the sensor is
located. Remove any dirt, snow, or
foreign material that could interfere
with the radar sensors.
After any dirt or debris is removed,
the BSD system should operate nor-
mally after about 10 minutes of driv-
ing the vehicle.
If the system still does not operate
normally have your vehicle inspected
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Information
Turn off the system by pressing the
BSD switch and deselecting Rear
Cross Traffic Alert from the User
Settings mode on the cluster, when
using a trailer or carrier behind your
vehicle.

Check BSD system
If there is a problem with the BSD
system, a warning message will
appear and the light on the switch will
turn off. The system will turn off auto-
matically. Have your vehicle inspect-
ed by an authorized HYUNDAI deal-
er.
RCTA (Rear Cross Traffic Alert)

from the left and right side of the vehi-
cle when your vehicle is in reverse.
Operating conditions
To operate:
Go to the 'User Settings →Driving
Assist and select Rear Cross Traffic
Alert' on the LCD display. (For more
information, refer to "LCD
Display" in chapter 3.) .
The system will turn on and standby
to activate. The system will activate
when vehicle speed is below 6 mph
(10 km/h) and with the shift lever in R
(Reverse).
Information
The Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA)
detecting range is approximately 1 - 65
ft (0.5 – 20 m). An approaching vehicle
will be detected if their vehicle speed is
within 2.5 - 22.5 mph (4 - 36 km/h).
Note that the detecting range may vary
under certain conditions. As always,
use caution and pay close attention to
your surroundings when backing up
your vehicle.

If the vehicle detected by the sensors
approaches your vehicle, the warn-
ing chime will sound, the warning
light on the outer side view mirror will
blink and a message will appear on
the LCD display.

Driving your vehicle
The Automatic Emergency Braking
(AEB) system is designed to help
detect and monitor the vehicle ahead
or detect a pedestrian (if equipped)
in the roadway through radar signals
and camera recognition to warn the
driver that a collision is imminent,
and if necessary, apply emergency
braking.
System Setting and Activation
System setting
The driver can activate the AEB by placing the ignition switch to the
ON position and by selecting:
'User Settings → Driving Assist →
Autonomous Emergency Braking'
The AEB deactivates, when the driv-
er deselects the system setting.

Take the following precautions
when using the Automatic
Emergency Braking (AEB):
This system is only a supple-
mental system and it is not
intended to, nor does it replace
the need for extreme care and
attention of the driver. The
sensing range and objects
detectable by the sensors are
limited. Pay attention to the
road conditions at all times.
NEVER drive too fast in accor-
dance with the road condi-
tions or while cornering.
Always drive cautiously to
prevent unexpected and sud-
den situations from occur-
ring. AEB does not stop the
vehicle completely and is not
a collision avoidance system.
WARNING

5-66
Driving your vehicle
AEB Sensor
In order for the AEB system to oper-
ate properly, always make sure the
sensor cover or sensor is clean and
free of dirt, snow, and debris. Dirt,
snow, or foreign substances on the
sensor cover or sensor may adverse-
ly affect the sensing performance of
the sensor. Do not apply license plate mold-
ing or foreign objects such as a
bumper sticker or a bumper
guard near the radar sensor.
Doing so may adversely affect
the sensing performance of the
radar.
Always keep the radar sensor and cover clean and free of dirt
and debris.
Use only a soft cloth to wash the vehicle. Do not spray pressur-
ized water directly on the sensor
or sensor cover.
Be careful not to apply unneces- sary force on the radar sensor or
sensor cover. If the sensor is
forcibly moved out of proper
alignment, the AEB system may
not operate correctly. In this
case, a warning message may
not be displayed. Have the vehi-
cle inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
(Continued)
NOTICE
The AEB system logic operates
within certain parameters, such
as the distance from the vehicle
or pedestrian ahead, the speed
of the vehicle ahead, and the
driver's vehicle speed. Certain
conditions such as inclement
weather and road conditions
may affect the operation of the
AEB system.
WARNING
The AEB braking control cannot
completely stop the vehicle nor
avoid all collisions. The driver
should hold the responsibility
to safely drive and control the
vehicle.
WARNING
Never deliberately drive danger-
ously to activate the system.

(Continued)
If the front bumper becomesdamaged in the area around the
radar sensor, the AEB system
may not operate properly. Have
the vehicle inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Use only genuine HYUNDAI parts to repair or replace a dam-
aged sensor or sensor cover. Do
not apply paint to the sensor
cover. NEVER install any accessories
or stickers on the front wind-
shield, nor tint the front wind-
shield.
NEVER locate any reflective objects (i.e. white paper, mirror)
over the dashboard. Any light
reflection may cause a malfunc-
tion of the system.
Pay extreme caution to keep the camera out of water.
NEVER disassemble the camera assembly, nor apply any impact
on the camera assembly.
Playing the vehicle audio sys- tem at high volume may offset
the system warning sounds.
Information
Have the system checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer when:
• The windshield glass is replaced.
• The sensor cover or sensor getsdamaged or replaced.
Warning message and warninglight
Auto Emergency Braking disabled.
Radar blocked
When the sensor cover is blocked
with dirt, snow, or debris, the AEB
system operation may stop tem-
porarily. If this occurs, a warning
message will appear on the LCD dis-
play. Remove any dirt, snow, or
debris and clean the radar sensor
cover before operating the AEB sys-
tem.
The AEB may not properly operate in
an area (e.g. open terrain), where
any substances are not detected
after turning ON the engine.
