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 warninglight 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 while driving.

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 byplacing 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 warninglight illuminates when the ESC(Electronic Stability Control) is
turned off. If the warning lightremains ON when the FCA is acti-
vated, we recommend that you have
the system checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.

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 extremecare 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 alltimes.
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. FCA does not stop the
vehicle completely and is not
a collision avoidance system.
WARNING

5-64
Driving your vehicle
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 maximizes 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 this condition is selected,the initial Forward Collision
Warning is activated normally. This
setting allows for a nominal
amount of distance between the
vehicle or pedestrian ahead before
the initial warning occurs.
- Late: When this condition is selected,the initial Forward Collision
Warning is activated later than nor-
mal. This setting reduces the
amount of distance 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 followingprerequisites are satisfied.
- The ESC (Electronic Stability Control) is on.
- Vehicle speed is over 10 km/h (6 mph). (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 vehiclecondition.)

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 theengine management system to help
decelerate the vehicle. - Your vehicle speed may deceler-ate moderately.
- The FCA system limitedly con- trols the brakes to preemptivelymitigate 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 cancelingthe system setting on the LCD
display.
The FCA automatically deacti-
vates upon canceling the ESC
(Electronic Stability Control).When the ESC is canceled,
the FCA cannot be activated
on the LCD display. The FCAwarning light will illuminate
which is normal.

Emergency braking (Second warning)
This warning message appears on
the LCD display with a warning
chime.
Additionally, some vehicle system
intervention occurs by the enginemanagement system to help decel-
erate the vehicle.
- The FCA system limitedly con-trols the brakes to preemptively
mitigate impact in a collision. The
brake control is maximized just
before a collision.
Brake operation
In an urgent situation, the braking system enters into the ready status
for prompt reaction against the dri-
ver's depressing the brake pedal.
The FCA provides additional brak- ing power for optimum braking per-
formance, when the driver
depresses the brake pedal.
The braking control is automatical- ly deactivated, when the driver
sharply depresses the accelerator
pedal, or when the driver abruptly
operates the steering wheel.
The FCA brake control is automat- ically canceled, when risk factors
disappear.
OOS057017L
The driver should always use
extreme caution while operating
the vehicle, whether or not there
is a warning message or alarm
from the FCA system.
CAUTION
The braking control cannot
completely stop the vehicle nor
avoid all collisions. The drivershould hold the responsibility
to safely drive and control the
vehicle.
WARNING
Never deliberately drive danger-
ously to activate the system.
WARNING
The FCA 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 theFCA system.

FCA sensor
In order for the FCA 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 lens may adversely 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 dirtand 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 FCA 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.
If the front bumper becomes damaged in the area around the
radar sensor, the FCA system
may not operate properly. We
recommend that you have the
vehicle inspected by authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Use only genuine parts to repair or replace a damaged sensor or
sensor cover. Do not apply paint
to the sensor cover.

System malfunction
Check Forward Collision Avoidance
Assist system
When the FCA is not working prop-erly, the FCA warning light ( )
will illuminate and the warning
message will appear for a few sec-
onds. After the message disap-
pears, the master warning light
( ) will illuminate. In this case, we
recommend that you have the vehi-
cle inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
The FCA warning message may appear along with the illuminationof the ESC (Electronic Stability
Control) warning light.
The FCA is only a supplemen-
tal system for the driver's con-
venience. The driver shouldhold 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 brakepedal to reduce the drivingspeed.
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 function
of the FCA system, the vehi-
cle's basic braking perform-
ance will operate normally.
However, brake control func-
tion 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 keeploose objects secured.
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.
