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.
WARNING

Driving your vehicle
The system may not work prop-erly when the bumper has been
damaged, or if the rear bumperhas been replaced or repaired.
The sensing range differs some- what according to the width of
the road. When the road is nar-
row, the system may detect
other vehicles in the next lane
OR when the road is wide, the
system may not detect other
vehicles in the next lane.
The system may turn off due to strong electromagnetic waves.
Detecting sensor
The sensors are located inside the
rear bumper.
Always keep the rear bumper clean
for proper operation of the system.

Detecting vehicles
The sensor may be limited when:
The radar sensor or camera isblocked with a foreign object or
debris
The camera lens is contaminated due to tinted, filmed or coated
windshield, damaged glass, or
stuck of foreign matter (sticker,
bug, etc.) on the glass
Inclement weather such as heavy rain or snow obscures the field of
view of the radar sensor or camera
There is interference by electro- magnetic waves
There is severe irregular reflection from the radar sensor
The radar/camera sensor recogni- tion is limited
The vehicle in front is too small to be detected (for example a motor-
cycle or a bicycle, etc.)
The vehicle in front is an oversize vehicle or trailer that is too big to
be detected by the camera recog-
nition system (for example a tractor
trailer, etc.) The driver's field of view is not well
illuminated (either too dark or too
much reflection or too much back-
light that obscures the field of view)
The vehicle in front does not have their rear lights properly turned ON.
The outside brightness changes suddenly, for example when enter-
ing or exiting a tunnel
When light coming from a street light or an oncoming vehicle is
reflected on a wet road surfacesuch as a puddle in the road
The field of view in front is obstruct- ed by sun glare
The windshield glass is fogged up; a clear view of the road is obstruct-ed
The vehicle in front is driving errati- cally
The vehicle is on unpaved or uneven rough surfaces, or road
with sudden gradient changes.
The vehicle is driven near areas containing metal substances as a
construction zone, railroad, etc.
The vehicle drives inside a building, such as a basement parking lot The adverse road conditions cause
excessive vehicle vibrations while
driving
The sensor recognition changes suddenly when passing over a
speed bump
The vehicle in front is moving verti- cally to the driving direction
The vehicle in front is stopped ver- tically
The vehicle in front is driving towards your vehicle or reversing
You are on roundabouts and the vehicle in front circles

Driving your vehicle
- Detecting the vehicle in front of you
If the vehicle in front of you has cargo
that extends rearward from the cab,
or when the vehicle in front of you
has higher ground clearance, addi-tional special attention is required.
The FCA system may not be able to
detect the cargo extending from the
vehicle. In these instances, you must
maintain a safe braking distance
from the rearmost object, and if nec-
essary, depress the brake pedal to
reduce your driving speed in order to
maintain distance.
Detecting pedestrians
The sensor may be limited when:
The pedestrian is not fully detectedby the camera recognition system,
for example, if the pedestrian is
leaning over or is not fully walking
upright
The pedestrian is moving very quickly or appears abruptly in the
camera detection area
The pedestrian is wearing clothing that easily blends into the back-
ground, making it difficult to be
detected by the camera recogni-tion system
The outside lighting is too bright (e.g. when driving in bright sunlight
or in sun glare) or too dark (e.g.
when driving on a dark rural roadat night)
It is difficult to detect and distin- guish the pedestrian from other
objects in the surroundings, for
example, when there is a group of
pedestrians or a large crowd
There is an item similar to a per- son's body structure
The pedestrian is small The pedestrian has impaired
mobility
The sensor recognition is limited
The radar sensor or camera is blocked with a foreign object or
debris
Inclement weather such as heavy rain or snow obscures the field of
view of the radar sensor or camera
When light coming from a street light or an oncoming vehicle is
reflected on a wet road surfacesuch as a puddle in the road
The field of view in front is obstructed by sun glare

Driving on a steep grade, over ahill, or when driving on a curved road.
The adverse road conditions cause excessive vehicle vibrations while
driving.
The surrounding of the inside rear view mirror temperature is highdue to direct sunlight, etc.
When front visibility is poor
The windshield or the LKAS cam- era lens is blocked with dirt or
debris.
The windshield glass is fogged up; a clear view of the road is obstruct-ed.
Placing objects on the dashboard, etc.
The sensor cannot detect the lane because of fog, heavy rain or snow.LKA system function change
The driver can change LKA to Lane
Departure Warning (LDW) system orchange the LKA system mode
between Standard LKA and Active
LKA from the LCD display. Go to the"User Settings Driver Assistance
Lane Keeping Assist Lane
Departure Warning/Standard
LKA/Active LKA". The system is automatically set to Standard LKA if a function is notselected.
Lane Departure Warning
LDW system alerts the driver with a
visual warning and a warning alarm
when the system detects the vehicle
departing the lane. The steeringwheel will not be controlled.
Standard LKA
The Standard LKA mode guides the
driver to help keep the vehicle within
the lanes. It rarely controls the steer-
ing wheel, when the vehicle drives
well inside the lanes. However, it
starts to control the steering wheel,
when the vehicle is about to deviate
out of the lanes.
Active LKA
The Active LKA mode provides more
frequent steering wheel control in
comparison with the Standard LKA
mode. Active LKA can reduce the dri-
ver’s fatigue to assist the steering for
maintaining the vehicle in the middle
of the lane.

Tire chains
Since the sidewalls of radial tires are
thinner than other types of tires, they
may be damaged by mounting sometypes of tire chains on them.
Therefore, the use of snow tires is
recommended instead of tire chains.
Do not mount tire chains on vehicles
equipped with aluminum wheels; if
unavoidable use a wire type chain. If
tire chains must be used, use gen-
uine HYUNDAI parts and install the
tire chain after reviewing the instruc-
tions provided with the tire chains.
Damage to your vehicle caused by
improper tire chain use is not cov-
ered by your vehicle manufacturer’s
warranty.Information
 Install tire chains on the front tires. It should be noted that installing tire
chains on the tires will provide a
greater driving force, but will not
prevent side skids.
 Do not install studded tires without first checking local and municipal
regulations for possible restrictions
against their use.
Chain Installation
When installing tire chains, follow the
manufacturer's instructions and
mount them as tightly possible. Drive
slowly (less than 30 km/h (20 mph))
with chains installed. If you hear thechains contacting the body or chas-
sis, stop and tighten them. If they still
make contact, slow down until the
noise stops. Remove the tire chains
as soon as you begin driving on
cleared roads.
When mounting snow chains, park
the vehicle on level ground away
from traffic. Turn on the vehicle
Hazard Warning Flasher and place a
triangular emergency warning device
behind the vehicle (if available).
Always place the vehicle in P (Park),
apply the parking brake and turn off
the engine before installing snow
chains.
i
OOS057008 The use of tire chains may
adversely affect vehicle han-dling:
Drive less than 30 km/h (20
mph) or the chain manufactur-
er’s recommended speed
limit, whichever is lower.
Drive carefully and avoid
bumps, holes, sharp turns,
and other road hazards, which
may cause the vehicle to
bounce.
Avoid sharp turns or locked wheel braking.
