Never try to test the operation
of the FCA system. Doing so
may cause severe injury ordeath.
If the front bumper, front
glass, radar or camera have
been replaced or repaired, we
recommend that you have
your vehicle inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Do not use the Forward
Collision avoidance Assist
(FCA) system when towing a
vehicle. Application of the
FCA system while towing may
adversely affect the safety of
your vehicle or the towing
vehicle.
Use extreme caution when 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.
The FCA system is designed to detect and monitor the
vehicle ahead or detect a
pedestrian in the roadway
through radar signals and
camera recognition. It is not
designed to detect bicycles,
motorcycles, or smaller
wheeled objects such as lug-
gage bags, shopping carts, or
strollers.

The Lane Keeping Assist (LKA) sys-
tem with a camera at the front wind-
shield, helps detect lane markers on
the road, and assists the driver's
steering to help keep the vehicle
between lanes.
When the system detects the vehicle
straying from its lane, it alerts the
driver with a visual and audible warn-ing, while applying a slight counter-
steering torque, trying to prevent the
vehicle from moving out of its lane.
OOS057033 The Lane Keeping Assist (LKA)
system is not a substitute for safe
driving practices, but a conven-
ience function. It is the responsi-
bility of the driver to always be
aware of the surrounding and
steer the vehicle.
WARNING
Take the following precautions
when using the Lane KeepingAssist (LKA) system:
Do not steer the steering
wheel suddenly when thesteering wheel is being assist-
ed by the system.
LKA system helps to prevent
the driver from moving out of
the lane unintentionally byassisting the driver's steering.
However, the driver should
not solely rely on the system
but always pay attention on
the steering wheel to stay in
the lane.
WARNING
The operation of the LKA sys- tem can be canceled or not
work properly according to
road condition and surround-
ings. Always be cautiouswhen driving.
Do not disassemble the LKA
system camera temporarily to
tint the window or attach anytypes of coatings and acces-
sories. If you disassemble the
camera and assemble it again,
we recommend that you take
your vehicle to an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer and have the
system checked for calibra-tion.
When you replace the wind-
shield glass, LKA system
camera or related parts of the
steering wheel, we recom-
mend that you take your vehi-
cle to an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer and have the system
checked for calibration.

LKA operation
To activate/deactivate the LKA sys- tem:
With the ignition switch in the ON
position, press the LKA system but-
ton located on the instrument panel
on the left hand side of the steering
wheel. (Right hand side of the steer-
ing wheel for RHD vehicles.)
The indicator in the cluster display
will initially illuminate white. This indi-cates the LKA system is in the
READY but NOT ENABLED state.
The system detects lane
markers and controls the
steering wheel by a camera,
therefore, if the lane markers
are hard to detect, the system
may not work properly.
Please refer to "Limitations of the system".
Do not remove or damage the
related parts of LKA system.
You may not hear a warning sound of LKA system
because of excessive audiosound.
Do not place objects on the
dashboard that reflects light
such as mirrors, white paper,
etc. The system may malfunc-tion if the sunlight is reflected.
Always have your hands on the steering wheel while the
LKA system is activated. If
you continue to drive with
your hands off the steering
wheel after the "Keep handson steering wheel" warning
message appears, the system
will turn off automatically.
The steering wheel is not con-
tinuously controlled so if the
vehicle speed is at a higher
rate when leaving a lane the
vehicle may not be controlled
by the system. The driver
must always follow the speedlimit when using the system.
If you attach objects to the
steering wheel, the system
may not assist steering or the
hands off alarm may not work
properly.
When you tow a trailer, make
sure that you turn off the LKAsystem.

Note that the vehicle speed must be
at least approximately 60 km/h (40mph) to ENABLE the LKA system.
The indicator in the cluster display
will illuminate green.The color of indicator willchange depending on thecondition of LKA system.
- White : Sensor does not detect
lane markers or vehiclespeed is under 60 km/h(40mph).
- Green : Sensor detects lane mark- ers and the system is able
to control vehicle steering.
Information
If the indicator (white) is activated
from the previous ignition cycle, the
system will turn ON without any addi-
tional control. If you press the LKA
button again, the indicator on the
cluster goes off. LKA activation
To see the LKA system screen on the LCD display in the cluster,
select ASSIST mode ( ). For
more details, refer to "LCD DisplayModes" in chapter 3.
When both lane markers are detected and all the conditions to
activate the LKA system are satis-
fied, a green steering wheel indica-tor will illuminate and the LKA sys-tem indicator light will change from
white to green. This indicates thatthe LKA system is in the
ENABLED state and the steering
wheel will be able to be controlled.
i
OOS057035L The Lane Keeping Assist (LKA)
system is a system to prevent

will change from gray to white.
If the system detects the right lane marker, the right lane marker color
will change from gray to white.
Both lane markers must be detect- ed for the system to fully activate.
If your vehicle speed exceeds 60 km/h (40 mph) and the LKA sys-
tem button is ON, the system is
enabled. If your vehicle departsfrom the projected lane in front of
you, theLKA system operates as
follows: A visual warning appears on the
cluster LCD display. Either the left
lane marker or the right lane marker
in the cluster LCD display will blinkdepending on which direction the
vehicle is veering.
If the steering wheel appears, the
system will control the vehicle's
steering to prevent the vehicle from
crossing the lane marker.Keep hands on steering wheel
If the driver takes their hands off the
steering wheel for several seconds
while the LKA system is activated,
the system will warn the driver.
Information
If the steering wheel is held very light-
ly the message may still appear
because the LKA system may not rec-
ognize that the driver has their hands
on the wheel.

maturely even if the vehicle does not
depart from the intended lane, OR,
the LKA system may not assist your
steering or warn you if the vehicle
leaves the intended lane under the
following circumstances:
When the lane and road condi- tions are poor
It is difficult to distinguish the lanemarking from the road surface or
the lane marking is faded or not
clearly marked.
It is difficult to distinguish the color of the lane marker from the road.
There are markings on the road surface that look like a lane marker
that is inadvertently being detected
by the camera.
The lane marker is merged or divided. (e.g. tollgate) The lane number increases or
decreases or the lane marker are
crossing complicatedly.
There are more than two lane markers on the road in front of you.
The lane marker is very thick or thin.
The lanes ahead are not visible due to rain, snow, water on theroad, damaged or stained road
surface, or other factors.
The shadow is on the lane marker by a median strip, trees, etc.
The lanes are incomplete or the area is in a construction zone.
There are crosswalk signs or other symbols on the road.
The lane marker in a tunnel is stained with oil, etc.
The lane suddenly disappears such as at the intersection. When external condition is inter-vened
The brightness outside changes
suddenly such as when entering or
exiting a tunnel, or when passing
under a bridge.
The brightness outside is too low such as when the headlamps are
not on at night or the vehicle isgoing through a tunnel.
There is a boundary structure in the roadway such as a concrete
barrier, guardrail and reflector post
that is inadvertently being detected
by the 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.
There is not enough distance between you and the vehicle in
front to be able to detect the lane
marker or the vehicle ahead is driv-
ing on the lane marker.
