Driving your vehicle
FCA Sensor
(Front Radar/Front Camera)
In order for the FCA system to oper-
ate properly, always make sure the
sensor cover or sensor is clean and
free of dirt, snow, and debris.
The driver should always use
extreme caution while operat-
ing the vehicle, whether or not
there is a warning message or
alarm from the FCA system.
After the brake control is acti-
vated, the driver must immedi-
ately depress the brake pedal
and check the surroundings.
The brake activation by the
system lasts for about 2 sec-
onds.
If any other warning sound
such as seat belt warning
chime is already generated,
the Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist (FCA) sys-
tem warning may not sound.
Playing the vehicle audio sys-
tem at high volume may pre-
vent occupants from hearing
the system warning sounds.
CAUTION
The FCA system logic operates
within certain parameters, such
as the distance from the vehi-
cle, pedestrian ahead, the speed
of the vehicle ahead, and the
driver's vehicle speed. Certain
conditions such as inclement
weather and road conditions
may affect the operation of the
FCA system.
WARNING
The FCA braking control cannot
completely stop the vehicle nor
avoid all collisions. The driver
should hold the responsibility
to safely drive and control the
vehicle.
WARNING
Never deliberately drive danger-
ously to activate the system.

Dirt, snow, or foreign substances on
the sensor cover or sensor may
adversely affect the sensing perform-
ance of the sensor.
Do not apply license plate frameor foreign objects such as a
bumper sticker or a bumper
guard near the sensor. Doing so
may adversely affect the sens-
ing performance of the radar.
Always keep the sensor and cover clean and free of dirt and
debris.
Use only a soft cloth to wash the vehicle. Do not spray pressur-
ized water directly on the sensor
or sensor cover.
Be careful not to apply unneces- sary force on the sensor or sen-
sor cover. If the sensor is
forcibly moved out of proper
alignment, the FCA system may
not operate correctly. In this
case, a warning message may
not be displayed. Have the vehi-
cle inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer. If the front bumper becomes
damaged in the area around the
sensor, the FCA system may not
operate properly. Have the vehi-
cle inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Use only genuine HYUNDAI parts to repair or replace a dam-
aged sensor or sensor cover. Do
not apply paint to the sensor
cover.
NEVER install any accessories or stickers on the front wind-
shield, or tint the front wind-
shield.
NEVER place any reflective objects (i.e. white paper, mirror)
over the crash pad. Any light
reflection may prevent the sys-
tem from functioning properly.
Pay extreme caution to keep the camera dry.
NEVER disassemble the camera assembly, or apply any impact
on the camera assembly. If the sensor is forcibly moved
out of proper alignment, the FCA
system may not operate correct-
ly. In this case, a warning mes-
sage may not be displayed. Have
the vehicle inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Information
Have the system checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer when:
• The windshield glass is replaced.
• The radar sensor or cover gets dam-aged or replaced.

Warning message and warninglight
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
(FCA) system disabled.
Radar blocked
When the sensor cover is covered
with dirt, snow, or debris, the FCA
system operation may not be able to
detect other vehicles. If this occurs, a
warning message will appear on the
LCD display.
The system will operate normally
when such dirt, snow or debris is
removed.
FCA may not properly operate in an
area (e.g. open terrain) where any
objects or vehicles are not detected
after turning on the engine.
System Malfunction
Check Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist system
When FCA is not working properly,
the FCA warning light ( ) will illu-
minate and the warning message
will appear for a few seconds. After
the message disappears, the mas-
ter warning light ( ) will illumi-
nate. 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.
The FCA system may not acti-
vate according to road condi-
tions, inclement weather, driv-
ing conditions or traffic condi-
tions.

Both FCA warning light and warn-
ing message will disappear once
the ESC warning light issue is
resolved.The FCA system may not acti-
vate if the driver applies the
brake pedal to avoid collision.
The brake control may be
insufficient, possibly causing
a collision, if a vehicle in front
abruptly stops. Always pay
extreme caution.
The FCA system may not acti-
vate according to the road
conditions, inclement weath-
er, driving conditions or traffic
conditions.
Occupants may get injured, if
the vehicle abruptly stops by
the activated FCA system. Pay
extreme caution.
The FCA system operates
only to detect vehicles, pedes-
trian in front of the vehicle.
FCA is only a supplemental
system for the driver's con-
venience. It is the driver's
responsibility to control 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 or to stop the vehicle.
In certain instances and
under certain driving condi-
tions, the FCA system may
activate prematurely. This ini-
tial warning message appears
on the LCD display with a
warning chime.
WARNING
Also due to sensing limita-
tions, in certain situations, the
front radar sensor or camera
recognition system may not
detect the vehicle, pedestrian
ahead. The FCA system may
not activate and the warning
message may not be dis-
played.
If there is a malfunction with
the FCA system, the Forward
Collision avoidance assist
system is not applied even
though the braking system is
operating normally.
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.

Detecting vehicles
The sensor may be limited when:
The system may not operate for 15seconds after the engine is started
or the camera is initialized
The radar sensor or camera is cov- ered with a foreign object or debris
The camera lens is contaminated due to tinted, filmed or coated
windshield, damaged glass, or
stuck of foreign matter (sticker,
bug, etc.) on the glass
Inclement weather such as heavy rain or snow obscures the field of
view of the radar sensor or camera
There is interference by electro- magnetic waves
There is severe irregular reflection from the radar sensor
The radar/camera sensor recogni- tion is limited
The vehicle in front is too small to be detected (for example a motor-
cycle or a bicycle, etc.) The vehicle in front is an oversize
vehicle or trailer that is too big to
be detected by the camera recog-
nition system (for example a tractor
trailer, etc.)
The camera's field of view is not well illuminated (either too dark or
too much reflection or too much
backlight that obscures the field of
view)
The vehicle in front does not have their rear lights properly turned ON
or their rear lights are located
unusually
The outside brightness changes suddenly, for example when enter-
ing or exiting a tunnel
Light coming from a street light or an oncoming vehicle is reflected on
a wet road surface such as a pud-
dle in the road
The field of view in front is obstruct- ed by sun glare
The windshield glass is fogged up; a clear view of the road is obstruct-
ed
The vehicle in front is driving errati- cally The vehicle is on unpaved or
uneven rough surfaces, or road
with sudden gradient changes
The vehicle is driven near areas containing metal substances as a
construction zone, railroad, etc.
The vehicle drives inside a building, such as a basement parking lot
The camera does not recognize the entire vehicle in front
The camera is damaged
The brightness outside is too low such as when the headlamps are
not on at night or the vehicle is
going through a tunnel
The shadow is on the road by a median strip, trees, etc.
The vehicle drives through a toll- gate.
The rear part of the vehicle in front is not normally visible (the vehicle
turns in other direction or the vehi-
cle is overturned.)
The adverse road conditions cause excessive vehicle vibrations while
driving

Driving your vehicle
The sensor recognition changes suddenly when passing over a
speed bump
The vehicle in front is moving verti- cally to the driving direction
The vehicle in front is stopped ver- tically
The vehicle in front is driving towards your vehicle or reversing
You are on a roundabout and the vehicle in front circles Driving on a curve
The performance of the FCA sys-
tem may be limited when driving
on a curved road.
In certain instances on a curved
road, the FCA system may activate
prematurely.
Also, in certain instances the front
radar sensor or camera recognition
system may not detect the vehicle
traveling on a curved road.
In these cases, the driver must
maintain a safe braking distance,
and if necessary, depress the
brake pedal to reduce your driving
speed in order to maintain a safe
distance. The FCA system may recognize a
vehicle in the next lane when driv-
ing on a curved road.
In this case, the system may
unnecessarily alarm the driver and
apply the brake.
Always pay attention to road and
driving conditions, while driving. If
necessary, depress the brake
pedal to reduce your driving speed
in order to maintain a safe dis-
tance.
Also, when necessary depress the
accelerator pedal to prevent the
system from unnecessarily decel-
erating your vehicle.

Detecting the vehicle in front of you If the vehicle in front of you has
cargo that extends rearward from
the cab, or when the vehicle in
front of you has higher ground
clearance, additional special atten-
tion is required. The FCA system
may not be able to detect the cargo
extending from the vehicle. In
these instances, you must main-
tain a safe braking distance from
the rearmost object, and if neces-
sary, depress the brake pedal to
reduce your driving speed in order
to maintain distance.
Detecting pedestrians
The sensor may be limited when:
The pedestrian is not fully detectedby the camera recognition system,
for example, if the pedestrian is
leaning over or is not fully walking
upright
The pedestrian is moving very quickly or appears abruptly in the
camera detection area
The pedestrian is wearing clothing that easily blends into the back-
ground, making it difficult to be
detected by the camera recogni-
tion system
The outside lighting is too bright (e.g. when driving in bright sunlight
or in sun glare) or too dark (e.g.
when driving on a dark rural road
at night)
It is difficult to detect and distin- guish the pedestrian from other
objects in the surroundings, for
example, when there is a group of
pedestrians or a large crowd
There is an item similar to a per- son's body structure The pedestrian is small
The pedestrian has impaired mobil-
ity
