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.

Driving your vehicle
Operating conditions
Select RCCW (Rear Cross-TrafficCollision Warning) in “User
Settings” under “Driver Assistance”
on the instrument cluster. The sys-
tem will turn on and standby to
activate.
Select RCCW again, to turn the system off.
If the vehicle is turned off, the RCCW system will remember the
last settings upon restart. Always
turn the RCCW system off when
not in use.
The system operates when the vehicle speed is below 10 km/h (6
mph) with the shift lever in R
(Reverse).
The RCCW (Rear Cross-Traffic Collision Warning) detecting range
is 1.6 feet ~ 65 feet based on the
side direction. If the approaching
vehicle speed is
4 km/h (2.5 mph) ~ 36 km/h (22
mph) within sensing range, it is
detected. However, the system
sensing range can vary based on
conditions. Always pay attention to
your surroundings.
Warning type If the vehicle detected by sensorsapproaches your vehicle, the warn-
ing chime will sound and the warn-
ing light will blink on the outside
rearview mirror.
If the detected vehicle is out of detection range, moving away in the
opposite direction or moving slow,
or if the vehicle is right behind your
vehicle, if the direction of the other
vehicle is not heading towards your
vehicle, the warning is cancelled.
The system may not operate prop- erly due to other factors or circum-
stances. Always pay attention to
your surroundings.

\b If your vehicle's left or right side
bumper is blinded by a barrier or
vehicles, the system sensing abili-
ty may be deteriorated.
When the BCW system is being acti-
vated, the warning light on the out-
side rearview mirror will illuminate
whenever a vehicle is detected at the
rear side by the system. To avoid
accidents, do not focus only on the
warning light and neglect to see the
surrounding of the vehicle.✽ ✽
NOTICE

ly if the bumper has been replaced
or if repair work has been done
near the sensor.

is narrow the system may detect
other vehicles in the next lane.
• If the road is very wide the system may not detect other vehicles.

ence.
