Driving your vehicle
Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance
Assist System (BCA) is automatical-
ly deactivated 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
(Camera and 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
whilst 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.

Front 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-
celled and not work properly until the
cancellation due to the degradation
of the sensor's detection perform-
ance. Always keep the sensor clean.
* Refer to Lane Keeping Assist (LKA)
System for cautions for the front
camera sensor.
Rear radar
The rear radars are the sensors
inside the rear bumper for detecting
the side/rear areas. Always keep the
rear bumper clean for proper opera-
tion 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 a
HYUNDAI authorised repairer.
•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
windscreen, nor tint the front
windscreen.
•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.

• This warning message may appear
when :
- One or both of the sensors on the
rear bumper is blocked by dirt or
snow or a foreign object.
- Driving in rural areas where the
sensor does not detect another
vehicle for an extended period of
time.
- When there is inclement weather
such as heavy snow or rain.If any of these conditions occur, the
light on the BCW switch and the sys-
tem will turn off automatically.
Turn off the BCW, BCA and RCCW
system (if equipped) when a trailer or
carrier is installed.
- Press the BCW/BCA button (the
indicator on the button extinguish)
- Deactivate the RCCW system by
deselecting
"User Settings →Driver assistance

Warning)" (if equipped)
If you use BCW and BCA system,
remove a trailer or carrier.
When the BCW cancelled warning
message is displayed in the cluster,
check to make sure that the rear
bumper is free from any dirt or snow
in the areas where the sensor is
located. Remove any dirt, snow, or
foreign material that could interfere
with the radar sensors.
After any dirt or debris is removed,
the BCA should operate normally
after about 10 minutes of driving the
vehicle.If the system still does not operate
normally have your vehicle inspected
by a HYUNDAI authorised repairer.Check BCW (Blind-spot Collision
Warning) system
If there is a problem with the BCW
system, a warning message will
appear and the light on the switch
will turn off. The system will turn off
automatically. BCA will not operate
also if the BCW system turns off due
to malfunction. We recommend that
you have your vehicle inspected by a
HYUNDAI authorised repairer.

The Rear Cross-Traffic Collision
Warning (RCCW) System uses radar
sensors to monitor the approaching
cross traffic from the left and right
side of the vehicle when your vehicle
is in reverse.
The blind spot detection range varies
relative to the approaching vehicle
speed.
Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-
Avoidance Assist (RCCA)
System
The Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-
Avoidance Assist (RCCA) System
monitors approaching cross traffic
from the left and right side of the
