- Changing lanes
When a vehicle changes lanes in
front of you, the FCA system may not
immediately detect the vehicle, espe-
cially if the vehicle changes lanes
abruptly. In this case, you must main-
tain a safe braking distance, and if
necessary, depress the brake pedal
to reduce your driving speed in order
to maintain a safe distance.When driving in stop-and-go traffic,
and a stopped vehicle in front of you
merges out of the lane, the FCA sys-
tem may not immediately detect the
new vehicle that is now in front of
you. In this case, you must maintain
a safe braking distance, and if nec-
essary, depress the brake pedal to
reduce your driving speed in order to
maintain a safe distance.
- 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, addi-
tional special attention is required.
The FCA system may not be able to
detect the cargo extending from the
vehicle. In these instances, you must
maintain a safe braking distance
from the rearmost object, and if nec-
essary, 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 detect-ed by the camera recognition sys-
tem, for example, if the pedestrian
is leaning over or is not fully walk-
ing 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 sun-
light 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
mobility
The radar sensor or camera is blocked with a foreign object or
debris
The camera lens is contaminated due to tinted, filmed or coated
windshield, damaged glass, or
piece of foreign matter (sticker,
bug, etc.) on the glass
The brightness outside is too low such as when the headlamps are
not on at night or the vehicle is
going through a tunnel
Inclement weather such as heavy rain or snow obscures the field of
view of the radar sensor or 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
The windshield glass is fogged up; a clear view of the road is
obstructed The adverse road conditions
cause excessive vehicle vibrations
while driving
The sensor recognition changes suddenly when passing over a
speed bump
You are on a roundabout

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 options for the initial Blind-Spot Collision Warning includes
the following:
- Normal:
When this condition is selected,
the initial Blind-Spot Collision
Warning is activated normally. If
this setting feels sensitive,
change the option to 'Later'.
The warning activation time may
feel late if a vehicle at the side or
rear abruptly accelerates.
- Later: Select this warning activation
time when the traffic is light and
you are driving in a low speed.
Information
If you change the warning timing, the
warning time of other systems may
change. Always be aware before
changing the warning timing. The driver can select the warning
volume of Blind-Spot Collision
Warning in the User Settings in the
LCD display by selecting 'User
Settings →Driver Assistance →
Warning Volume →High/Medium/
Low'.
For more details, refer to "LCD
Display" in chapter 3.
Information
If you change the warning volume, the
warning volume of other systems may
change. Always be aware before
changing the warning volume.
Operating Conditions
The system enters the ready status,
when 'Active Assist' or 'Warning
Only' is selected and the following
conditions are satisfied:
Active Assist
1) The Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist system will activate when :
- Vehicle speed is between 40mph and 110 mph (60 km/h and
180 km/h).
- The system detects both of the lane lines.
- An approaching vehicle is detect- ed next to or behind your vehicle.
2) The Blind-Spot Collision Warning system will activate when :
The vehicle speed is above
approximately 20 mph (30 km/h).
Warning Only
1) The Blind-Spot Collision Warning system will activate when :
- The vehicle speed is approxi-mately 20 mph (30 km/h).
❈ The Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance
Assist system is not activated.

Driving your vehicle
Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist
(BCA) system is automatically deacti-
vated when:
- The vehicle drives a certain dis- tance away
- The vehicle direction is changed against the possible-colliding point
- The steering wheel is abruptly moved
- The brake pedal is depressed
- After a certain period of time
The driver should drive the vehicle in
the middle of the vehicle lanes to
keep the system in the ready status.
When the vehicle drives too close to
one side of the vehicle lanes, the
system may not properly operate.
In addition, the system may not prop-
erly control your vehicle in accor-
dance with driving situations. Thus,
always pay close attention to road
situations.
Detecting Sensor
(Camera and Radar)
The driver is responsible for
accurate steering.
Do not unnecessarily operate
the steering wheel, when the
Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance
Assist System is in operation.
Always pay extreme caution
while driving. The Blind-Spot
Collision-Avoidance Assist
system may not operate or
unnecessarily operate in
accordance with your driving
situations.
The Blind-Spot Collision-
Avoidance Assist system is
not a substitute for safe driv-
ing practices, but a conven-
ience function only. It is the
responsibility of the driver to
always drive cautiously to
prevent unexpected and sud-
den situations from occur-
ring. Pay attention to the road
conditions at all times.

Note that the vehicle
speed must be at least
approximately 40 mph
(64 km/h) to ENABLE the
LKA system. The indicator in the
cluster display will illuminate green.
The color of indicator will change
depending on the condition of LKA
system.
- White : Sensor does not detect
lane markers or vehicle
speed is under 40 mph (64
km/h).
- Green : Sensor detects lane mark- ers and the system is able
to control vehicle steering.
Information
If the indicator (white) is activated
from the previous ignition cycle, the
system will turn ON without any addi-
tional control. If you press the LKA
switch again, the indicator on the clus-
ter goes off.

The Lane Keeping Assist (LKA)
system is a system to help pre-
vent the driver from leaving the
lane. However, the driver should
not solely rely on the system
but always check the road con-
ditions when driving.
