Blind-Spot Collision-AvoidanceAssist (BCA) system
The Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance
Assist (BCA) system may apply brak-
ing power, when an approaching
vehicle is detected within a certain
distance next to or behind your vehi-
cle.
It gently applies braking power on
the tire, which is located in the oppo-
site side of the possibly-colliding
point. The instrument cluster will
inform the driver of the system acti-
vation.
The warning light on the outer
side view mirror will illumi-
nate whenever a vehicle is
detected at the rear side by
the system.
To avoid accidents, do not
focus only on the warning
light and neglect to see the
surrounding of the vehicle.
Drive safely even though the
vehicle is equipped with a
Blind-Spot Collision Warning
(BCA) system. 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
The driver should always use
extreme caution while operat-
ing the vehicle, whether or not
the warning light on the outer
side view mirror illuminates or
there is a warning alarm.
Playing the vehicle audio sys-
tem at high volume may offset
the Blind-Spot Collision
Warning system warning
sounds.
If any other warning sound
such as seat belt warning
chime is already generated,
the Blind-Spot Collision
Warning (BCW) system warn-
ing may not sound.

Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist
(BCA) system is automatically deacti-
vated when:
- The vehicle drives a certain dis-tance away
- The vehicle direction is changed against the possible-colliding point
- The steering wheel is abruptly moved
- The brake pedal is depressed
- After a certain period of time
The driver should drive the vehicle in
the middle of the vehicle lanes to
keep the system in the ready status.
When the vehicle drives too close to
one side of the vehicle lanes, the
system may not properly operate.
In addition, the system may not prop-
erly control your vehicle in accor-
dance with driving situations. Thus,
always pay close attention to road
situations.Detecting Sensor
(Front View Camera and Rear
Corner Radar)

The driver is responsible for
accurate steering.
Do not unnecessarily operate
the steering wheel, when the
Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance
Assist System is in operation.
Always pay extreme caution
while driving. The Blind-Spot
Collision-Avoidance Assist
system may not operate or
unnecessarily operate in
accordance with your driving
situations.
The Blind-Spot Collision-
Avoidance Assist system is
not a substitute for safe driv-
ing practices, but a conven-
ience function only. It is the
responsibility of the driver to
always drive cautiously to
prevent unexpected and sud-
den situations from occur-
ring. Pay attention to the road
conditions at all times.
WARNING

Driving your vehicle
Front view camera
The front camera is a sensor detect-
ing the lane. If the sensor is covered
with snow, rain or foreign substance,
the system may temporarily be can-
celed. The system is canceled due to
the degradation of the sensor's
detection performance. Always keep
the sensor clean.
* Refer to Lane Keeping Assist(LKA) System for cautions for the
front camera sensor.
Rear corner radar
The rear radars are the sensors
inside the rear bumper for detecting
the side and rear areas. Always keep
the rear bumper clean for proper
operation of the system.
The system may not work
properly when the bumper
has been damaged, or if the
rear bumper has been
replaced or repaired.
The sensing range differs
somewhat according to the
width of the road. When the
road is narrow, the system
may detect other vehicles in
the next lane.
The system may turn off due
to strong electromagnetic
waves.
Always keep the sensors
clean.
NEVER arbitrarily disassem-
ble the sensor component nor
apply any impact on the sen-
sor component.
Be careful not to apply unnec-
essary force on the radar sen-
sor or sensor cover. If the sen-
sor is forcibly moved out of
proper alignment, the system
may not operate correctly. In
this case, a warning message
may not be displayed. Have
the vehicle inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Do not apply foreign objects
such as a bumper sticker or a
bumper guard near the radar
sensor or apply paint to the
sensor area. Doing so may
adversely affect the perform-
ance of the sensor.
NEVER install any acces-
sories or stickers on the front
windshield, nor tint the front
windshield.
Pay extreme caution to keep
the camera sensor out of
water.
NEVER locate any reflective
objects (i.e. white paper, mir-
ror) over the crash pad. Any
light reflection may cause a
malfunction of the system.
