FCA Warning Message and
System Control
The FCA produces warning mes-
sages and warning alarms in accor-
dance with the collision risk levels,
such as abrupt stopping of the vehi-
cle in front, or insufficient braking dis-
tance detection. Also, it controls the
brakes in accordance with the colli-
sion risk levels.
The driver can select the initial warn-
ing activation time in the User
Settings in the LCD display. The
options for the initial Forward
Collision Warning include Late,
Normal or Early initial warning time.
Collision Warning
(First warning)
This warning message appears on
the LCD display with a warning
chime. Additionally, some vehicle
system intervention occurs to help
decelerate the vehicle.
- Your vehicle speed may deceler-
ate moderately.
- The FCA system limitedly con-
trols the brakes to preemptively
mitigate impact in a collision.
Emergency braking
(Second warning)
This warning message appears on
the LCD display with a warning
chime.
Additionally, some vehicle system
intervention occurs to help deceler-
ate the vehicle.
- The FCA system limitedly con-
trols the brakes to preemptively
mitigate impact in a collision. The
brake control is maximized just
before a collision.

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.

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 camera recognition sys-
tem may not detect the vehi-
cle ahead. The FCA system
may not activate and the
warning message will not be
displayed.

The Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist (FCA) system is designed to
help detect and monitor the vehicle
ahead or detect a pedestrian in the
roadway through radar signals and
camera recognition to warn the driv-
er that a collision is imminent, and if
necessary, apply emergency brak-
ing.System Setting and Activation
System setting
The Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist (FCA) system is enabled
whenever the vehicle is turned on.
To turn off the system, go to the
'User Settings →Driver
Assistance' and deselect 'Forward
Collision Avoidance Assist' on the
cluster LCD display.
The FCA deactivates, when the
driver deselects the system set-
ting.

Take the following precautions
when using the Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist
(FCA) system:
This system is only a supple-
mental system and it is not
intended to, nor does it
replace the need for extreme
care and attention of the driv-
er. The sensing range and
objects detectable by the sen-
sors are limited. Pay attention
to the road conditions at all
times.
NEVER drive too fast in accor-
dance with the road condi-
tions or while cornering.
Always drive cautiously to
prevent unexpected and sud-
den situations from occur-
ring. FCA does not stop the
vehicle completely and is not
a collision avoidance system.
WARNING

5-74
Driving your vehicle
The warning light illumi-
nates on the LCD display,
when you cancel the FCA
system. The driver can
monitor the FCA ON/OFF status on
the LCD display. Also, the warning
light illuminates when the ESC
(Electronic Stability Control) is
turned off (Traction & Stability control
disabled).
If the warning light remains ON when
the FCA is activated, have the sys-
tem checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer. The driver can select the initial warn-
ing activation time on the LCD dis-
play.
Go to the 'User Settings →Driver
Assistance →Forward Collision
Warning →Late/Normal/Early'.The options for the initial Forward
Collision Warning includes the fol-
lowing:
- Late:
When this condition is selected,
the initial Forward Collision
Warning is activated later than nor-
mal. This setting reduces the
amount of distance between the
vehicle or pedestrian ahead before
the initial warning occurs.
Even though, 'Late' is selected if
the front vehicle suddenly stops
the initial warning activation time
may not seem late.
Select 'Late' when traffic is light
and when driving speed is slow.
- Normal:
When this condition is selected, the
initial Forward Collision Warning is
activated normally. This setting
allows for a nominal amount of dis-
tance between the vehicle or
pedestrian ahead before the initial
warning occurs.

- Early:
When this condition is selected, the
initial Forward Collision Warning is
activated earlier than normal. This
setting maximizes the amount of
distance between the vehicle or
pedestrian ahead before the initial
warning occurs.
Even though, 'Early' is selected if
the front vehicle suddenly stops the
initial warning activation time may
not seem fast.
If you feel the warning activates too
early, set the Forward Collision
Warning to "Normal".Prerequisite for activation
The FCA system is on and ready
when FCA is selected on the LCD
display and when the following pre-
requisites are satisfied:
- The ESC (Electronic Stability
Control) on.
- Driving speed exceeds approxi-
mately 6 mph (10 km/h). (The FCA
is only activated within a certain
speed range.)
- The system detects a pedestrian or
a vehicle in front, which may collide
with your vehicle. (The FCA may
not be activated or may sound a
warning alarm in accordance with
the driving situation or vehicle con-
dition.)
Completely stop the vehicle
on a safe location before
operating the switch on the
steering wheel to activate/
deactivate the FCA system.
The FCA automatically acti-
vates upon placing the igni-
tion switch to the ON position.
The driver can deactivate the
FCA by canceling the system
setting on the LCD display.
If you cancel the ESC
(Electronic Stability Control)
when the FCA system is
turned on the FCA automati-
cally deactivates and the FCA
warning light illuminates.
When the ESC is canceled the
FCA cannot be activated on
the LCD display. The FCA
warning light will illuminate
which is normal.
