Exercise extreme caution when
driving up or down steep hills.
The vehicle may flip over
depending on the grade, the ter-
rain, and the trail conditions.
WARNING
Do not drive across the contour
of steep hills. A slight change in
the wheel angle can destabilize
the vehicle, or a stable vehicle
may lose stability if the vehicle
stops its forward motion. Your
vehicle may roll over and lead to
a serious injury or death.

you drive too fast, water may
get into the engine compart-
ment and wet the ignition sys-
tem causing your vehicle to
suddenly stop.

The ISG system is to help reduce the
fuel consumption by automatically
shutting down the engine, when the
vehicle is at a standstill (i.e. red stop
light, stop sign, and traffic jam).
The engine is automatically started
upon satisfying the starting condi-
tions.
The ISG system is always active,
when the engine is running.
Information
When the engine is automatically
started by the ISG system, some warn-
ing lights (i.e. ABS, ESC, ESC OFF,
EPS, and parking brake warning
light) may illuminate for a few sec-
onds due to the low battery voltage.
However, it does not indicate a mal-
function with the ISG system.

lowing situations.
- The driver's seatbelt is fastened.
- The driver's door and the hood areclosed.

- The battery is sufficiently charged.
- The outside temperature is between 14 °F and 95 °F (-10 °C and 35 °C).
- The engine coolant temperature is not too low.
- The system is not in the diagnostic mode.
Information
The ISG system is
not activated, when
the prerequisites to
activate the ISG sys-

- If you select "Warning Only", theFCA system activates and pro-
duces only warning alarms in
accordance with the collision risk
levels. You should control the
brake directly because the FCA
system do not control the brake.
- If you select "Off", the FCA sys- tem deactivates,
The warning light illu-
minates on the LCD
display, when you can-
cel the FCA system.
The driver can monitor the FCA
ON/OFF status on the LCD dis-
play. Also, the warning light illumi-
nates when the ESC (Electronic
Stability Control) is turned off. If
the warning light remains ON

the system checked by an author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer. The driver can select the initial
warning activation time on the LCD
display.

When this condition is selected,
the initial Forward Collision
Warning is activated sensitively. If
you feel the warning activates too
early, set the Forward Collision
Warning to 'Later'.
Even though, 'Normal' is selected if
the front vehicle suddenly stops
the initial warning activation time
may not seem fast.

- Later :When this condition is selected,
the initial Forward Collision
Warning is activated later than
normal. This setting reduces the
amount of distance between the
vehicle or pedestrian ahead
before the initial warning occurs.
Select 'Later' when traffic is light
and when driving speed is slow.
Information
If you change the warning timing, the
warning time of other systems may
change. Always be aware before

when FCA is selected on the LCD
display and when the following pre-
requisites are satisfied:
- The ESC (Electronic StabilityControl) is on.
- Driving speed exceeds approxi- mately 6mph (10km/h) (The FCA
is only activated within a certain
speed range.).
- The system detects a pedestrian or a vehicle in front, which may

sound a warning alarm in accor-
dance with the driving situation or
vehicle condition.)

Driving your vehicle
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 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.
Information
Have the system checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer when:
• The windshield glass is replaced.
• The radar sensor or cover gets damaged or replaced.
Warning message and warninglight
Forward Collision Avoidance Assist
(FCA) system disabled.
Radar blocked
When the sensor cover is blocked
with dirt, snow, or debris, the FCA
system operation may stop temporar-
ily. If this occurs, a warning message
will appear on the LCD display.
Remove any dirt, snow, or debris and
clean the radar sensor cover before
operating the FCA system. However, the FCA may not properly
operate in an area (e.g. open ter-
rain), where any substances are not
detected or the camera is blocked
with dirt, snow or debris after turning
ON the engine.
Also, even though a warning mes-
sage does not appear on the LCD
display, the FCA may not properly
operate.

System Malfunction
Check Forward Collision Avoidance
Assist system
When the FCA is not workingproperly, the FCA warning light
( ) will illuminate and the warn-
ing message will appear for a few
seconds. After the message dis-
appears, the master warning light
( ) will illuminate. In this case,
have the vehicle inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
The FCA warning message may appear along with the illumination
of the ESC (Electronic Stability
Control) warning light.
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
activate prematurely. This ini-
tial 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.
WARNING If there is a malfunction with
the FCA system, the Forward
Collision avoidance assist
system is not applied even
though the braking system is
operating normally.
If the vehicle in front stops
suddenly, you may have less
control of the brake system.
Therefore, always keep a safe
distance between your vehicle
and the vehicle in front of you.
The FCA system may activate
during braking and the vehi-
cle may stop suddenly shift-
ing loose objects toward the
passengers. Always keep
loose objects secured.
The FCA system may not acti-
vate if the driver applies the
brake pedal to avoid a colli-
sion.
The brake control may be
insufficient, possibly causing
a collision, if a vehicle in front
abruptly stops. Always pay
extreme caution.
