The Lane Keeping Assist System
helps detect the lane markers on the
road with a camera at the front wind-
shield, and assists the driver's steer-
ing to help keep the vehicle in the
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.

Driving your vehicle
OLF057510
Driver is responsible for being
aware of surroundings and
steering the vehicle for safe
driving practices.
Do not steer the steering
wheel suddenly when the
steering wheel is being assist-
ed by the system.
LKAS helps prevent the driver
from moving out of the lane
unintentionally by assisting
the driver's steering. However,
the system is just a conven-
ience function and the steer-
ing wheel is not always con-
trolled. While driving, the driv-
er should pay attention to the
steering wheel.
The operation of the LKAS
can be cancelled or not work
properly according to road
condition and surroundings.
Always be cautious when
driving.
WARNING
Do not disassemble LKAS
camera temporarily for tinted
window or attaching any
types of coatings and acces-
sories. If you disassemble a
camera and assemble it again,
take your vehicle to an author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer and
have the system checked for a
calibration.
When you replace the wind-
shield glass, LKAS camera or
related parts of the steering,
take your vehicle to an author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer and
have the system checked for a
calibration.
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.
Always be cautious when
using the system.
