FCA is only a supplemental
system for the driver's con-
venience. The driver should
hold the responsibility to con-
trol the vehicle operation. Do
not solely depend on FCA
system. Rather, maintain a
safe braking distance, and, if
necessary, depress the brake
pedal to reduce the driving
speed or to stop the vehicle.
In certain instances and
under certain driving condi-
tions, FCA system may acti-
vate unintentionally. This ini-
tial warning message appears
on the LCD display with a
warning chime.
Also due to sensing limita-
tions, in certain situations, the
front radar sensor or front view
camera recognition system
may not detect the vehicle,
pedestrian or cyclist ahead.
FCA system may not activate
and the warning message may
not be displayed.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Even if there is any problem
with the brake control func-
tion of 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.
FCA system may activate dur-
ing braking and the vehicle
may stop suddenly shifting
loose objects toward the pas-
sengers. Always keep loose
objects secured.
FCA system may not activate
if the driver applies the brake
pedal to avoid collision.
(Continued)WARNING
FCA system does not operate
when the vehicle is in reverse.
FCA system is not designed
to detect other objects on the
road such as animals.
(Continued)
WARNING
(Continued)
If a vehicle in front abruptly
stops, the brake control may
not work possibly causing a
collision.
Occupants may get injured, if
the vehicle abruptly stops by
activated FCA system. Pay
extreme caution.
FCA system operates only
when the system detects vehi-
cles, pedestrian, or cyclist
directly in front of the vehicle.

Lane Keeping Assist system helps
detect lane markers on the road with
a front view camera at the front
windshield, and assists the driver's
steering to help keep the vehicle
between lanes.
When the system detects the vehicle
straying from its lane, it alerts the
driver with a visual and audible warn-
ing, while applying a slight counter-
steering torque, trying to help pre-
vent the vehicle from moving out of
its lane.

Lane Keeping Assist system is
not a substitute for safe driving
practices, but a convenience
function only. It is the responsi-
bility of the driver to always be
aware of the surroundings and
steer the vehicle.
WARNING
Take the following precautions
when using Lane Keeping
Assist system :
Do not turn the steering wheel
suddenly when the steering
wheel is being assisted by the
system.
LKA system helps to prevent
the driver from moving out of
the lane unintentionally by
assisting the driver's steering.
However, the driver should
not solely rely on the system
but always pay attention on
the steering wheel to stay in
the lane.
The operation of LKA system
can be cancelled or not work
properly according to road
condition and surroundings.
Always be cautious when
driving.

(Continued)
The system detects lane
markers and controls the
steering wheel by a front view
camera, therefore, if the lane
markers are hard to detect,
the system may not work
properly.
Please refer to "Limitations of
the System".
Do not remove or damage the
related parts of LKA system.
You may not hear a warning
sound of LKA system if the
audio volume is high.
Do not place objects on the
dashboard that reflects light
such as mirrors, white paper,
etc. This may prevent LKA
system from functioning
properly.
When the lane markers are
hard to detect, please refer to
"Driver's Attention".
(Continued)
(Continued)
Always have your hands on
the steering wheel while LKA
system is activated. If you
continue to drive with your
hands off the steering wheel
after the "Keep hands on
steering wheel" warning mes-
sage appears, the system will
stop controlling the steering
wheel.
The steering wheel is not con-
tinuously controlled so if the
vehicle speed is at a higher
rate when leaving a lane the
vehicle may not be controlled
by the system. The driver
must always follow the speed
limit when using the system.
If you attach objects to the
steering wheel, the system
may not assist steering or the
hands off alarm may not work
properly.
When you tow a trailer, make
sure that you turn off LKA
system.(Continued)
Do not disassemble LKA sys-
tem camera temporarily to
tint the window or attach any
types of coatings and acces-
sories. If you disassemble the
camera and assemble it again,
we recommend that you take
your vehicle to an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer and have the
system checked for calibra-
tion.
When you replace the wind-
shield glass, LKA system
camera or related parts of the
steering wheel, we recom-
mend that you take your vehi-
cle to an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer and have the system
checked for calibration.

Driving your vehicle
If vehicle speed is over 40 mph (64
km/h) and the system detects lane
markers, the color changes from
gray to white. If your vehicle speed exceeds 40
mph (64 km/h) and LKA system
button is ON, the system is
enabled. If your vehicle departs
from the projected lane in front of
you, LKA system operates as fol-
lows:
1. A visual warning appears on the
cluster LCD display. Either the left
lane marker or the right lane mark-
er in the cluster LCD display will
blink depending on which direction
the vehicle is veering.2. LKA system will help control the
vehicle's steering to prevent the
vehicle from crossing the lane
marker in below conditions.
- Vehicle speed is over 40 mph (64
km/h)
- The system detects both lane
markers
- When driving, the vehicle is locat-
ed between both lanes normally.
- The steering wheel is not turned
suddenly.
When lanes are detected and all the
conditions to activate LKA system
are satisfied, a LKA system indicator
light ( ) will change from white to
green. This indicates that LKA sys-
tem is in the ENABLED state and the
steering wheel will be controlled.

Keep hands on steering wheel
If the driver takes their hands off the
steering wheel for several seconds
while LKA system is activated, the
system will warn the driver.
Information
If the steering wheel is held very light-
ly the message may still appear
because LKA system may not recog-
nize that the driver has their hands on
the wheel.
Driver's hands not detected. LKA
system is disabled temporarily
If the driver still does not have their
hands on the steering wheel after the
message "Keep hands on steering
wheel", the system will not control
the steering wheel and warn the driv-
er only when the driver crosses the
lane markers.
However, if the driver has their hands
on the steering wheel again, the sys-
tem will start controlling the steering
wheel.
