- If you select "Warning Only", theFCA system activates and pro-
duces only warning alarms in
accordance with the collision risk
levels. You should control the
brake directly because the FCA
system do not control the brake.
- If you select "Off", the FCA sys- tem deactivates,
The warning light illu-
minates on the LCD
display, when you can-
cel the FCA system.
The driver can monitor the FCA
ON/OFF status on the LCD dis-
play. Also, the warning light illumi-
nates when the ESC (Electronic
Stability Control) is turned off. If
the warning light remains ON
when the FCA is activated, have
the system checked by an author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer. The driver can select the initial
warning activation time on the LCD
display.
Go to the 'User Settings → Driver
Assistance →Warning Timing →
Normal/Later'. The options for the initial Forward
Collision Warning includes the fol-
lowing:
- Normal :
When this condition is selected,
the initial Forward Collision
Warning is activated sensitively. If
you feel the warning activates too
early, set the Forward Collision
Warning to 'Later'.
Even though, 'Normal' is selected if
the front vehicle suddenly stops
the initial warning activation time
may not seem fast.

- Later :When this condition is selected,
the initial Forward Collision
Warning is activated later than
normal. This setting reduces the
amount of distance between the
vehicle or pedestrian ahead
before the initial warning occurs.
Select 'Later' when traffic is light
and when driving speed is slow.
Information
If you change the warning timing, the
warning time of other systems may
change. Always be aware before
changing the warning timing.
Prerequisite for activation
The FCA system is on and ready
when FCA is selected on the LCD
display and when the following pre-
requisites are satisfied:
- The ESC (Electronic StabilityControl) is on.
- Driving speed exceeds approxi- mately 6mph (10km/h) (The FCA
is only activated within a certain
speed range.).
- The system detects a pedestrian or a vehicle in front, which may
collide with your vehicle. (The FCA
may not be activated or may
sound a warning alarm in accor-
dance with the driving situation or
vehicle condition.)
i
Driving your vehicle
Completely stop the vehicle
on a safe location before
operating the switch on the
steering wheel to activate
/deactivate the FCA system.
The FCA automatically acti-
vates upon placing the igni-
tion switch to the ON position.
The driver can deactivate the
FCA by canceling the system
setting on the LCD display.
The FCA automatically deacti-
vates upon canceling the ESC
(Electronic Stability Control).
When the ESC is canceled,
the FCA cannot be activated
on the LCD display. The FCA
warning light will illuminate
which is normal.

System Malfunction
Check Forward Collision Avoidance
Assist system
When the FCA is not workingproperly, the FCA warning light
( ) will illuminate and the warn-
ing message will appear for a few
seconds. After the message dis-
appears, the master warning light
( ) will illuminate. 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 is only a supplemen-
tal system for the driver’s con-
venience. The driver should
hold the responsibility to con-
trol 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.
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.
Also, in certain instances the
front radar sensor or camera
recognition system may not
detect the vehicle or pedestri-
an ahead. The FCA system
may not activate and the
warning message will not be
displayed.
WARNING 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.
The FCA system may not acti-
vate if the driver applies the
brake pedal to avoid a colli-
sion.
The brake control may not
work, possibly causing a colli-
sion, if a vehicle in front
abruptly stops. Always pay
extreme caution.

System Description
Blind-Spot Collision Warning(BCW)
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.
1) Blind-Spot Area
The blind spot detection range varies
relative to vehicle 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 Lane Change Assist feature will
alert you when a vehicle is approach-
ing 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.
Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance
Assist (BCA)
The Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance
Assist (BCA) system helps detect the
front lane through the camera
installed on the upper front wind-
shield and helps detect the side/rear
areas through radar sensors.
The Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance
Assist system may activate the
Electronic Stability Control (ESC) in
accordance with a colliding possibili-
ty with an approaching vehicle while
changing lanes. It is to help the col-
liding risk or mitigate the colliding
damage.

The brake control may not operate
properly according to the status of
the ESC (Electronic Stability
Control). The same warning mes-
sage is displayed on the instrument
cluster for this case also.
- When the ESC (Electronic StabilityControl) warning light is on.
- When the ESC (Electronic Stability Control) is engaged in a different
function.
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
When the operation condition
of the Rear Cross-Traffic
Collision Warning system is
satisfied, the warning will
occur every time a vehicle
approaches the side or rear
of your stopped (0 mph vehi-
cle speed) vehicle.
The system's warning may
not operate properly if the left
or right of your vehicle's rear
bumper is blocked by a vehi-
cle or obstacle.
