The Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist (FCA) system is designed to
help detect and monitor the vehicle
ahead or detect a pedestrian in the
roadway through radar signals and
camera recognition to warn the driv-
er that a collision is imminent, and if
necessary, apply emergency brak-
ing.System setting and activation
System setting
The driver can activate the FCA by
placing the ignition switch to the
ON position and by selecting:
'User Settings →Driver assistance
→ FCA (Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist)'
The FCA deactivates, when the driv-
er cancels the system setting.
The warning light illumi-
nates on the LCD display,
when you cancel the FCA
system. The driver can
monitor the FCA ON/OFF status on
the LCD display. Also, the warning
light illuminates when the ESC
(Electronic Stability Control) is
turned off. If the warning light
remains ON when the FCA is acti-
vated, we recommend that you have
the system checked by an authorised
HYUNDAI Dealer.

Driving your vehicle
Take the following precautions
when using the Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist
(FCA) system:
This system is only a supple-
mental system and it is not
intended to, nor does it
replace the need for extreme
care and attention of the driv-
er. The sensing range and
objects detectable by the sen-
sors are limited. Pay attention
to the road conditions at all
times.
NEVER drive too fast in accor-
dance with the road condi-
tions or whilst cornering.
Always drive cautiously to
prevent unexpected and sud-
den situations from occur-
ring. FCA does not stop the
vehicle completely and is not
a collision avoidance system.
WARNING

5-93
Driving your vehicle
The driver can select the initial warn-
ing activation time on the LCD dis-
play.
Go to the 'User Settings →Driver
assistance → FCW (Forward
Collision Warning) →Early/
Normal/Late'.The options for the initial Forward
Collision Warning includes the fol-
lowing:
- Early:
When this condition is selected,
the initial Forward Collision
Warning is activated earlier than
normal. This setting maximises the
amount of distance between the
vehicle or pedestrian ahead before
the initial warning occurs.
Even though, 'Early' is selected if
the front vehicle suddenly stops
the initial warning activation time
may not seem fast.
If you feel the warning activates too
early, set the Forward Collision
Warning to 'Normal'.
- Normal:
When this condition is selected,
the initial Forward Collision
Warning is activated normally. This
setting allows for a nominal
amount of distance between the
vehicle or pedestrian ahead before
the initial warning occurs.- Late:
When this condition is selected,
the initial Forward Collision
Warning is activated later than nor-
mal. This setting reduces the
amount of distance between the
vehicle or pedestrian ahead before
the initial warning occurs.
Select 'Late' when traffic is light
and when driving speed is slow.

Prerequisite for activation
The FCA gets ready to be activated,
when the FCA is selected on the
LCD display, and when the following
prerequisites are satisfied.
- The ESC (Electronic Stability
Control) is on.
- Vehicle speed is over 8 km/h (The
FCA is only activated within a cer-
tain speed range.).
- The system detects a pedestrian,
or a vehicle in front, which may col-
lide with your vehicle. The FCA
may not be activated or may sound
a warning alarm in accordance
with the driving situation or vehicle
condition.
FCA warning message and
system control
The FCA produces warning mes-
sages and warning alarms in accor-
dance with the collision risk levels,
such as abrupt stopping of the vehi-
cle in front, insufficient braking dis-
tance, pedestrian detection. Also, it
controls the brakes in accordance
with the collision risk levels.
The driver can select the initial warn-
ing activation time in the User
Settings in the LCD display. The
options for the initial Forward
Collision Warning include Early,
Normal or Late initial warning time. Completely stop the vehicle in
a safe location before operat-
ing 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 cancelling the system
setting on the LCD display.
The FCA automatically deacti-
vates upon cancelling the
ESC (Electronic Stability
Control). When the ESC is
cancelled, the FCA cannot be
activated on the LCD display.
The FCA warning light will
illuminate which is normal.

Collision Warning
(First warning)
This warning message appears on
the LCD display with a warning
chime. Additionally, some vehicle
system intervention occurs by the
engine management system to help
decelerate the vehicle.
- Your vehicle speed may deceler-
ate moderately.
- The FCA system limitedly con-
trols the brakes to preemptively
mitigate impact in a collision.- It will operate if the vehicle speed
is greater than approximately 8
km/h and less than or equal to
180 km/h on a forward vehicle.
(Depending on the condition of
the vehicle ahead and the envi-
ronment surrounding it, the possi-
ble maximum operating speed
may be reduced.)
For pedestrians, the vehicle
speed is greater than or equal to
approximately 8 km/h and less
than approximately 70 km/h.
(Depending on the condition of
pedestrians and bike riders and
the surrounding environment the
possible maximum operating
speed may be reduced.)
Emergency braking
(Second warning)
This warning message appears on
the LCD display with a warning
chime.
Additionally, some vehicle system
intervention occurs by the engine
management system to help decel-
erate the vehicle.
- The FCA system limitedly con-
trols the brakes to preemptively
mitigate impact in a collision. The
brake control is maximised just
before a collision.

Driving your vehicle
- It will operate if the vehicle speed
is greater than approximately 8
km/h and less than or equal to 80
km/h on a forward vehicle.
(Depending on the condition of
the vehicle ahead and the sur-
rounding environment the possi-
ble maximum operating speed
may be reduced.)
For pedestrians, the vehicle
speed is greater than or equal to
approximately 8 km/h and less
than approximately 70 km/h.
(Depending on the condition of
pedestrians and bike riders and
the surrounding environment the
possible maximum operating
speed may be reduced.)
Brake operation
In an urgent situation, the braking
system enters into the ready status
for prompt reaction against the dri-
ver's depressing the brake pedal.
The FCA provides additional brak-
ing power for optimum braking per-
formance, when the driver
depresses the brake pedal.
The braking control is automatical-
ly deactivated, when the driver
sharply depresses the accelerator
pedal, or when the driver abruptly
operates the steering wheel.
The FCA brake control is automat-
ically cancelled, when risk factors
disappear.The driver should always use
extreme caution whilst operat-
ing the vehicle, whether or not
there is a warning message or
alarm from the FCA system.CAUTION
The braking control cannot
completely stop the vehicle nor
avoid all collisions. The driver
should hold the responsibility
to safely drive and control the
vehicle.

FCA sensor
In order for the FCA system to oper-
ate properly, always make sure the
sensor cover and sensor are clean
and free of dirt, snow, and debris.Dirt, snow, or foreign substances on
the lens may adversely affect the
sensing performance of the sensor.
Do not apply licence plate mold-
ing or foreign objects such as a
bumper sticker or a bumper
guard near the radar sensor.
Doing so may adversely affect
the sensing performance of the
radar.
Always keep the radar sensor
and cover clean and free of dirt
and debris.
Use only a soft cloth to wash the
vehicle. Do not spray pres-
surised water directly on the
sensor or sensor cover.
NOTICE
The FCA system logic operates
within certain parameters, such
as the distance from the vehicle
or 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

5-98
Driving your vehicle
Be careful not to apply unneces-
sary force on the radar sensor or
sensor 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. We recom-
mend that you have the vehicle
inspected by an authorised
HYUNDAI dealer.
If the front bumper becomes
damaged around the area of
radar sensor, the FCA system
may not operate properly. We
recommend that you have the
vehicle inspected by authorised
HYUNDAI dealer.
Use only genuine parts to repair
or replace a damaged sensor or
sensor cover. Do not apply paint
to the sensor cover. NEVER install any accessories
or stickers on the front wind-
screen, or tint the front wind-
screen.
NEVER locate any reflective
objects (i.e. white paper, mirror)
over the instrument panel. Any
light reflection may cause a mal-
function of the system.
Pay extreme caution to keep the
camera out of water.
NEVER disassemble the camera
assembly, or apply any impact
on the camera assembly.
Playing the vehicle audio sys-
tem at high volume may offset
the system warning sounds.
