Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance
Assist (BCA) system
The Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance
Assist (BCA) system may apply brak-
ing power, when an approaching
vehicle is detected within a certain
distance next to or behind your vehi-
cle.
It gently applies braking power on
the tire, which is located in the oppo-
site side of the possibly-colliding
point. The instrument cluster will
inform the driver of the system acti-
vation.
The warning light on the outer
side view mirror will illumi-
nate 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.
Drive safely even though the
vehicle is equipped with a
Blind-Spot Collision Warning
(BCA) system. Do not solely
rely on the system but check
your surrounding before
changing lanes or backing the
vehicle up.
The system may not alert the
driver in some conditions so
always check your surround-
ings while driving.
WARNING
The driver should always use
extreme caution while operat-
ing the vehicle, whether or not
the warning light on the outer
side view mirror illuminates or
there is a warning alarm.
Playing the vehicle audio sys-
tem at high volume may offset
the Blind-Spot Collision
Warning system warning
sounds.
If any other warning sound
such as seat belt warning
chime is already generated,
the Blind-Spot Collision
Warning (BCW) system warn-
ing may not sound.

Operating conditions
To operate:
Go to the 'Vehicle settings →Driver
Assistance →Blind-Spot Safety →
Rear Cross-Traffic Safety' on the
AVN screen. The system will turn on
and standby to activate.
The system will activate when vehi-
cle speed is below 10 mph (16 km/h)
and with the gear in R (Reverse).
* The system will not activate when
the vehicle speed exceeds 10 mph
(16 km/h). The system will activate
again when the speed is below 10
mph (16 km/h).
The system's detecting range is
approximately 1 – 65 ft. (0.5 – 20 m).
An approaching vehicle will be
detected if the vehicle speed is with-
in 5 – 22.5 mph (8 – 36 km/h).
Note that the detecting range may
vary under certain conditions. As
always, use caution and pay close
attention to your surroundings when
backing up your vehicle.
Warning and System Control
Rear Cross-Traffic Collision
Warning (RCCW) system
If the vehicle detected by the sensors
approaches from the rear left/right
side of your vehicle, the warning
chime will sound, the warning light
on the outer side view mirror will
blink and a message will appear on
the LCD display. If the rear view mon-
itor system is in activation, a mes-
sage will also appear on the AVN
screen.
The warning will stop when:
- The detected vehicle moves out of
the sensing area or
- when the vehicle is right behind
your vehicle or
- when the vehicle is not approach-
ing your vehicle or
- when the other vehicle slows
down.

Detecting Sensor
The rear corner radars are the sen-
sors inside the rear bumper for
detecting the side and rear areas.
Always keep the rear bumper clean
for proper operation of the system. The driver should always use
extreme caution while operat-
ing the vehicle, whether or not
the warning light on the outer
side view mirror illuminates or
there is a warning alarm.
Playing the vehicle audio sys-
tem at high volume may offset
the system's warning sounds.
If any other warning sound
such as seat belt warning
chime is already generated,
the Rear Cross-Traffic Collision
Warning system warning may
not sound.
Drive safely even though the
vehicle is equipped with a
Rear Cross-Traffic Collision
Warning system and Rear
Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance
Assist system. Do not solely
rely on the system but check
your surrounding when back-
ing the vehicle up.
The driver is responsible for
accurate brake control.
Always pay extreme caution
while driving. The Rear Cross-
Traffic Collision Warning sys-
tem and Rear Cross-Traffic
Collision-Avoidance Assist
system may not operate prop-
erly or unnecessarily operate
in accordance with your driv-
ing situations.
The Rear Cross-Traffic
Collision-Avoidance Assist
system is not a substitute for
safe driving practices, but a
convenience function only. It
is the responsibility of the
driver to always drive cau-
tiously to prevent unexpected
and sudden situations from
occurring. Pay attention to the
road conditions at all times.
WARNING
OFE058049

Driving your vehicle
The Blind-Spot View Monitor system
is designed to help safe driving by
providing broader view than the
outer side view mirror by displaying
rear/side area view on the cluster
when the driver turns on the turn sig-
nal to change lane.
The system shows the following
vehicle on the corresponding side
using the cameras at the outside
rearview mirrors when the driver
turns on the turn signal to change
lane.
Operating conditions
With the vehicle on, select the
"Driver assistance →Blind-spot
safety →Blind-spot view" from the
vehicle settings in the AVN screen.
Then the corresponding left or right
side of the vehicle will be displayed
on the cluster if the driver turns on
the turn signal while driving.
System operation
Operate the turn signal while driving
and the corresponding left or right
side rear view will be shown on the
cluster.

Limitations of the System
The LKA system may operate pre-
maturely even if the vehicle does not
depart from the intended lane, OR,
the LKA system may not warn you if
the vehicle leaves the intended lane
under the following circumstances:
When the lane and road condi-
tions are poor
It is difficult to distinguish the lane
marker from the road because the
lane marker is covered with dust or
sand.
It is difficult to distinguish the color
of the lane marker from the road.
There are markings on the road
surface that look like a lane marker
that is inadvertently being detected
by the camera.
damaged.
The lane marker is merged or
divided. (e.g. tollgate)
The lane number increases or
decreases or the lane marker are
crossing complicatedly.
There are more than two lane
markers on the road in front of you. The lane marker is very thick or
thin.
The lane marker ahead is not visible
due to rain, snow, water on the
road, damaged or stained road sur-
face, or other factors.
The shadow is on the lane marker
by a median strip, trees, guardrail,
noise barriers, etc.
The lane markers are complicated
or a structure substitutes for the
lines such as a construction area.
There are crosswalk signs or other
symbols on the road.
The lane marker in a tunnel is
stained with oil, etc.
The lane suddenly disappears
such as at the intersection.
When external condition is inter-
vened
The brightness outside changes
suddenly such as when entering or
exiting a tunnel, or when passing
under a bridge. The brightness outside is too low
such as when the headlamps are
not on at night or the vehicle is
going through a tunnel.
There is a boundary structure in
the roadway such as a concrete
barrier, guardrail and reflector post
that is inadvertently being detected
by the camera.
When light coming from a street
light or an oncoming vehicle is
reflected on a wet road surface
such as a puddle in the road.
The field of view in front is
obstructed by sun glare.
There is not enough distance
between you and the vehicle in
front to be able to detect the lane
marker or the vehicle ahead is driv-
ing on the lane marker.
Driving on a steep grade, over a
hill, or when driving on a curved
road.
The adverse road conditions cause
excessive vehicle vibrations while
driving.
The surrounding of the inside rear
view mirror temperature is high
due to direct sunlight, etc.
