•When BCW is activated, the
warning light on the outside
rearview mirror will illuminate
whenever a vehicle is detect-
ed at the rear side by the sys-
tem.
To avoid accidents, do not
focus only on the warning
light and neglect to see the
surrounding of the vehicle.
•Drive safely even though the
vehicle is equipped with a
Blind-spot Collision Warning
(BCW) system and Rear Cross
Traffic Alert (RCTA). Do not
solely rely on the system but
check your surrounding
before changing lanes or
backing the vehicle up.
The system may not alert the
driver in some conditions so
always check your surround-
ings whilst driving.
WARNING

Driving your vehicle- A trailer or carrier is installed. Touse the BCW system, remove the
trailer or carrier from your vehicle.
If any of these conditions occur, the
light on the BCW switch and the sys-
tem will turn off automatically.
When the BCW 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 BCW 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 a HYUNDAI authorised repairer.
Information
Turn off the system by pressing the
BCW switch and deselecting Rear
Cross-Traffic Collision warning
(RCCW) from the User Settings mode
on the cluster, when using a trailer or
carrier behind your vehicle.

system, a warning message will
appear and the light on the switch
will turn off. The system will turn off
automatically. We recommend that
you have your vehicle inspected by a
HYUNDAI authorised repairer.
Limitations of the system
The driver must be cautious in the
below situations, because the sys-
tem may not detect other vehicles or
objects in certain circumstances.
• When a trailer or carrier is installed.
• The vehicle drives in inclement weather such as heavy rain or
snow.
• The sensor is polluted with rain, snow, mud, etc.
• The rear bumper where the sensor is located is covered with a foreign
object such as a bumper sticker, a
bumper guard, a bike rack, etc.
• The rear bumper is damaged, or the sensor is out of the original
default position.
• The vehicle height gets lower or higher due to heavy loading in the
luggage compartment, abnormal
tyre pressure, etc.
• When the temperature near the rear bumper area is high or low.

The Forward Collision-avoidance
Assist (FCA) 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 FCA by placing the ignition switch to the
ON position and by selecting:
"User Settings → Driver assistance
→ Forward Collision-avoidance
Assist (FCA)"
The FCA deactivates, when the driv-
er cancels the system setting. The warning light illumi-
nates on the LCD display,
when you cancel the FCA
system. The driver can
monitor the FCA ON/OFF status on
the LCD display. Also, the warning
light illuminates when the ESC
(Electronic Stability Control) is
turned off. If the warning light
remains ON when the FCA is acti-
vated, we recommend that you have
the system checked by a HYUNDAI
authorised repairer.
FORWARD COLLISION-AVOIDANCE ASSIST (FCA) SYSTEM
- SENSOR FUSION TYPE (FRONT RADAR + FRONT CAMERA) (
II F EQUIPPED)
Take the following precautions
when using the Forward
Collision-avoidance Assist
(FCA) system:
•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 driv-
er. The sensing range and
objects detectable by the sen-
sors are limited. Pay attention
to the road conditions at all
times.
•NEVER drive too fast in accor-
dance with the road condi-
tions or whilst cornering.
•Always drive cautiously to
prevent unexpected and sud-
den situations from occur-
ring. FCA does not stop the
vehicle completely and is not
a collision avoidance system.

• The driver can select the initial warn-ing activation time on the LCD dis-
play.
Go to the "User Settings → Driver
assistance →Forward Collision
Warning →Late/Normal/Early".
The options for the initial Forward
Collision Warning includes the fol-
lowing:
- Early: When this condition is selected,
the initial Forward Collision
Warning is activated earlier than
normal. This setting maximises the
amount of distance between the
vehicle or pedestrian ahead before
the initial warning occurs.
Even though, 'Early' is selected if
the front vehicle suddenly stops
the initial warning activation time
may not seem fast.
If you feel the warning activates too
early, set the Forward Collision
Warning to "Normal". - Normal:
When 'Normal' is selected, the ini-
tial Forward Collision Warning is
activated normally. This setting
allows for a nominal amount of dis-
tance between the vehicle or
pedestrian ahead before the initial
warning occurs.
- Late: When 'Late' is selected, the initial
Forward Collision Warning is acti-
vated later than normal. This set-
ting reduces the amount of dis-
tance between the vehicle or
pedestrian ahead before the initial
warning occurs.
Select 'Late' when traffic is light
and when driving speed is slow.Prerequisite for activation
The FCA gets ready to be activated,
when the FCA is selected on the
LCD display, and when the following
prerequisites are satisfied.
- The ESC (Electronic Stability Control) is on.
- Vehicle speed is over 6 mph (10 km/h). (The FCA is only activated
within a certain speed range.)
- The system detects a pedestrian or a vehicle in front, which may col-
lide with your vehicle. (The FCA
may not be activated or may sound
a warning alarm in accordance
with the driving situation or vehicle
condition.)

FCA warning message and
system control
The FCA produces warning mes-
sages and warning alarms in accor-
dance with the collision risk levels,
such as abrupt stopping of the vehi-
cle in front, insufficient braking dis-
tance, or pedestrian detection. Also,
it controls the brakes in accordance
with the collision risk levels.
The driver can select the initial warn-
ing activation time in the User
Settings in the LCD display. The
options for the initial Forward
Collision Warning include Early,
Normal or Late initial warning time.
Collision warning (First warning)
This warning message appears on
the LCD display with a warning
chime. Additionally, some vehicle
system intervention occurs by the
engine management system to help
decelerate the vehicle.
- Your vehicle speed may decelerate moderately.
- The FCA system limitedly controls the brakes to preemptively mitigate
impact in a collision.
•Completely stop the vehicle
on a safe location before
operating the switch on the
steering wheel to activate/
deactivate the FCA system.
•The FCA automatically acti-
vates upon placing the Engine
Start/Stop button to the ON
position. The driver can deac-
tivate the FCA by cancelling
the system setting on the LCD
display.
•The FCA automatically deacti-
vates upon cancelling the
ESC (Electronic Stability
Control). When the ESC is
cancelled, the FCA cannot be
activated on the LCD display.
The FCA warning light will
illuminate which is normal.

Driving your vehicle
• The FCA warning message may appear along with the illumination
of the ESC (Electronic Stability
Control) warning light.
•The FCA is only a supplemen-
tal system for the driver's con-
venience. The driver should
hold the responsibility to con-
trol the vehicle operation. Do
not solely depend on the FCA
system. Rather, maintain a
safe braking distance, and, if
necessary, depress the brake
pedal to reduce the driving
speed.
•In certain instances and
under certain driving condi-
tions, the FCA system may
activate unintentionally. This
initial warning message
appears on the LCD display
with a warning chime.
Also, in certain instances the
front radar sensor or camera
recognition system may not
detect the vehicle or pedestri-
an ahead. The FCA system
may not activate and the
warning message will not be
displayed.
•Even if there is any problem
with the brake control func-
tion of the FCA system, the
vehicle's basic braking per-
formance will operate normal-
ly. However, brake control
function for avoiding collision
will not activate.
•If the vehicle in front stops
suddenly, you may have less
control of the brake system.
Therefore, always keep a safe
distance between your vehicle
and the vehicle in front of you.
•The FCA system may activate
during braking and the vehi-
cle may stop suddenly shift-
ing loose objects toward the
passengers. Always keep
loose objects secured.
WARNING
•The FCA system may not acti-
vate if the driver applies the
brake pedal to avoid a colli-
sion.
•The brake control may be
insufficient, possibly causing
a collision, if a vehicle in front
abruptly stops. Always pay
extreme caution.
•Occupants may get injured, if
the vehicle abruptly stops by
the activated FCA system. Pay
extreme caution.
•The FCA system operates
only to detect vehicles or
pedestrians in front of the
vehicle.
