Do not apply license plate frameor 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 dirt
and 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.
(Continued)(Continued)
If the front bumper becomes
damaged in the area around the
radar sensor, the FCA system
may not operate properly. Have
the vehicle inspected by author-
ized HYUNDAI.
Use only genuine parts to repair or replace a damaged sensor or
sensor cover. Do not apply paint
to the sensor cover. NEVER install any accessories
or stickers on the front wind-
shield, nor tint the front wind-
shield.
NEVER locate any reflective objects (i.e. white paper, mirror)
over the dashboard. Any light
reflection may cause a malfunc-
tion of the system.
Pay extreme caution to keep the camera out of water.
NEVER arbitrarily disassemble the camera assembly, nor apply
any impact on the camera
assembly.
Playing the vehicle audio sys- tem at high volume may offset
the system warning sounds.

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
unintentionally activate. 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.

Limitations of the System
The Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist (FCA) system is designed to
help monitor the vehicle ahead or a
pedestrian in the roadway through
radar signals and camera recognition
to warn the driver that a collision is
imminent, and if necessary, apply
emergency braking.
In certain situations, the radar sen-
sor or the camera may not be able to
detect the vehicle or pedestrian
ahead. In these cases, the FCA sys-
tem may not operate normally. The
driver must pay careful attention in
the following situations where the
FCA operation may be limited.
Detecting vehicles
The sensor may be limited when:
The radar sensor or camera isblocked 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
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
Light coming from a street light or an oncoming vehicle is reflected on
a wet road surface such as a pud-
dle in the road
The field of view in front is obstructed by sun glare
The windshield glass is fogged up; a clear view of the road is obstructed
The vehicle in front is driving errat- ically
The vehicle is on unpaved or uneven rough surfaces, or roads
with sudden gradient changes
The adverse road conditions cause excessive vehicle vibrations while
driving
The vehicle is moving under ground level or inside a building
The vehicle is driven near areas containing metal substances such
as a construction zone, railroad,
etc.

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
- Driving on a curve
The performance of the FCA system
may be limited when driving on a
curved road.
In certain instances on a curved
road, the FCA system may activate
prematurely.
Also, in certain instances the front
radar sensor or camera recognition
system may not detect the vehicle
traveling on a curved road.
In these cases, the driver must main-
tain a safe braking distance, and if
necessary, depress the brake pedal
to reduce your driving speed in order
to maintain a safe distance. The FCA system may recognize a
vehicle in the next lane when driving
on a curved road.
In this case, the system may unnec-
essarily alarm the driver and apply
the brake.
Always pay attention to road and
driving conditions, while driving. If
necessary, depress the brake pedal
to reduce your driving speed in order
to maintain a safe distance.
Also, when necessary depress the
accelerator pedal to prevent the sys-
tem from unnecessarily decelerating
your vehicle.
Check the surrounding traffic condi-
tions before use.

- 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 (if equipped)
The sensor may be limited when:
The pedestrian is not fully detected
by 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
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
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 road
at night)
When light coming from a street light or an oncoming vehicle is
reflected on a wet road surface
such as a puddle in the road
The field of view in front is obstructed by sun glare
The windshield glass is fogged up; a clear view of the road is obstruct-
ed
The adverse road conditions cause excessive vehicle vibrations while
driving
