FCA Sensor
In order for the FCA system to oper-
ate properly, always make sure the
view on the windshield near the cam-
era is clean and free of dirt, snow,
and debris.
Dirt, snow, or foreign substances on
the front camera sensor may
adversely affect the performance of
the system.The sensing performance of the
sensor may be affected if the fol-
lowing instructions are not fol-
lowed.
Always keep the camera sensor
clean and free of dirt and debris.
Use only genuine parts to repair
or replace a damaged camera
sensor.
Be careful not to apply unneces-
sary force on the camera sensor. If
the sensor is forcibly moved out
of proper alignment, the FCA sys-
tem 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 tint the window or install
stickers, accessories around the
inside mirror where the camera
is installed.
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.
The FCA warning chime may be
difficult to hear if the audio sys-
tem volume is set to a high level.

Detecting vehicles
The sensor may be limited when:
The camera is blocked with a for-
eign object or debris
The camera lens is contaminated
due to tinted, filmed or coated
windshield, damaged glass, or
stuck of foreign matter (sticker,
bug, etc.) on the glass
Inclement weather such as heavy
rain or snow obscures the field of
view of the camera
The vehicle is on unpaved or
uneven rough surfaces, or road
with sudden gradient changes.
The camera sensor recognition is
limited
The vehicle in front is too small to
be detected (for example a motor-
cycle or a bicycle, etc.)
The camera does not recognize
the entire vehicle in front.
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 camera's field of view is not
well illuminated (either too dark or
too much reflection or too much
backlight 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 vehicle drives inside a build-
ing, such as a basement parking
lot
The adverse road conditions cause
excessive vehicle vibrations while
driving
The camera is damaged.
The brightness outside is too low
such as when the headlamps are
not on at night or the vehicle is
going through a tunnel. The shadow is on the road by a
median strip, trees, etc.
The vehicle drives through a toll-
gate.
The windshield glass is fogged up;
a clear view of the road is obstruct-
ed
The rear part of the vehicle in front
is not normally visible (for example,
the vehicle is spinning or the vehi-
cle is overturned)
The sensor recognition changes
suddenly when passing over a
speed bump
The vehicle in front is driving errat-
ically
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
You are on a roundabout and the
vehicle in front circles

FCA Sensor
In order for the FCA system to oper-
ate properly, always make sure the
view on the windshield near the cam-
era and front radar sensor are clean
and free of dirt, snow, and debris.Dirt, snow, or foreign substances on
the front radar sensor may adversely
affect the performance of the sys-
tem.
Do not apply license plate frame
or 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 sensor or sen-
sor 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. If the front bumper becomes
damaged in the area around the
sensor, the FCA system may not
operate properly. Have the vehi-
cle inspected by authorized
HYUNDAI.
Use only genuine parts to repair
or replace a damaged sensor or
sensor cover. Do not apply paint
to the sensor cover.

• The windshield glass is replaced.
• The front bumper is replaced.
• The radar sensor or cover gets dam-
aged or replaced.

(FCA) system disabled.
Radar blocked
When the sensor cover is blocked
with dirt, snow, or debris, the FCA
system operation may be temporarily
disabled. If this occurs, a warning
message will appear on the LCD dis-
play.
Remove any dirt, snow, or debris and
clean the radar sensor cover before
operating the FCA system.The FCA may not properly operate in
an area (e.g. open terrain), where
any substances are not detected
after turning ON the vehicle.

The FCA system may not acti-

tions, inclement weather, driv-
ing conditions or traffic condi-
tions.
WARNING

System Not Operating
Check Forward Collision Avoidance
Assist system
When the FCA is not working prop-
erly, the FCA warning light ( )
will illuminate and the warning
message will appear for a few sec-
onds. After the message disap-
pears, 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 and the FCA
is automatically deactivated.
OIK057091L
Even if there is any problem
with the brake control function
of the FCA system, the vehi-
cle's basic braking perform-
ance will operate normally.
However, brake control func-
tion for avoiding collision will
not activate.
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.
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.

- 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.
