Limitation of the system
The FCA system is designed to mon-
itor the vehicle ahead or a pedestrian
on the roadway through radar signals
and camera recognition to warn the
driver that a collision is imminent,
and if necessary, apply emergency
braking. In certain situations, the
radar sensor or the camera may not
be able to detect the vehicle or
pedestrian ahead. In these cases,
the FCA system may not operate.
The driver must pay careful attention
in the following situations where the
FCA operation may be limited.
Recognizing vehicles
The sensor may be limited when:
- The radar or the camera is con-taminated with foreign substances.
- It heavily rains or snows.
- There is electromagnetic interfer- ence
- Something in the path of travel deflects the radar waves
- The vehicle in front has a narrow body. (i.e. motor cycle and bicycle)
- The driver's view is not clear due to backlight, reflected light, or dark-
ness
- The camera cannot contain the full image of the vehicle in front.
- The vehicle in front is a special vehicle, such as a heavily-loaded
truck or a trailer.
- The outside brightness is greatly changed, such as entering/exiting
a tunnel. - The vehicle driving is unstable.
- The radar/camera sensor recogni-
tion is limited.
- The vehicle in front is driving errat- ically
- The vehicle is driven near areas containing metal substances such
as a construction zone, railroad,
etc.
- Moisture on the windshield is not completely removed or frozen.
- The weather is misty.
- The vehicle in front does not turn ON the rear lights, does not have
rear lights, has asymmetric rear
lights, or has rear lights out of
angle.
- The vehicle is on unpaved or uneven rough surfaces, or roads
with sudden gradient changes.
- The vehicle is moving under ground level or inside a building.

The Blind-Spot Collision Warning
(BCW) system uses radar sensors in
the rear bumper to monitor and warn
the driver of an approaching vehicle
in the driver's blind spot area.
The system monitors the rear area of
the vehicle and provides information
to the driver with an audible alert and
a indicator on the outside rearview
mirrors (1) Blind spot area
The BCW range varies relative tovehicle speed. Note that if your
vehicle is traveling much faster
than the vehicles around you, the
warning will not occur.
(2) Closing at high speed The BCW-Closing at high speedfeature will alert you when it
detects a vehicle is approaching
in an adjacent lane at a high rate
of speed. If the driver activates
the turn signal when the system
detects an oncoming vehicle, the
system sounds an audible alert.
(3) RCCW (Rear Cross-Traffic Collision Warning)
The RCCW feature monitors approaching cross traffic from the
left and right side of the vehicle
when your vehicle is in reverse.
The feature will operate when the
vehicle is moving in reverse
below about 6 mph (10 km/h). If
oncoming cross traffic is detected
a warning chime will sound.

WARNING
- BCW Limitations
The Blind-Spot Collision Warning System (BCW) is a
supplemental system. Do not
solely rely on the system and
always pay attention to drive
safely.
The Blind-Spot Collision Warning System may not
detect every object alongside
the vehicle and is not a sub-
stitute for proper and safe
lane changing procedures.
Always drive safely and use
caution when changing lanes.

If a vehicle is detected within the
boundary of the system, a warning
light will illuminate on the outside
rearview mirror.
If the detected vehicle is not in
detecting range, the warning will turn
off. The second stage alarm will activate
when:
1.The first stage alert is on
2.The turn signal is on to change a
lane
When the second stage alert is acti-
vated, a warning light will blink on the
outside rearview mirror and an alarm
will sound.
If you move the turn signal switch to
the original position, the second
stage alert will be deactivated. To activate the alarm:
Go to the User Settings Mode →
Driving Assist and select “BCW” on
the LCD display.
To deactivate the alarm: Go to the User Settings Mode →
Driving Assist and deselect “BCW”
on the LCD display.

NOTICE
• Even though the steering is assist-
ed by the system, the driver may
control the steering.
• The steering wheel may feel heav- ier when the steering wheel is
assisted by the system than when it
is not.
The system will be cancelled when:
You change lanes with the turn sig-
nal.
- Using the turn signal to change lanes.
- If you change lanes without the turn signal on, the steering wheel
might be controlled.
LKA SYSTEM can transit to steer- ing assist mode when the car is
near to middle of the lane after sys-
tem on or the lane was changed.
LKA SYSTEM can not assist steer-
ing if the vehicle follows lane mark-
er too close continuously before
transition to steering assist mode.
The control of ESC (Electronic Stability Control) or VSM (Vehicle
Stability Management) is activated.
The steering will not be assisted when your drive fast on a sharp
curve.
