• Driving on a curve
The performance of FCA system may
be limited when driving on a curved
road.
On curved roads, the other vehicle
on the same lane is not recognized
and FCA system's performance may
be degraded. This may result in
unnecessary alarm or braking or no
alarm or braking when necessary.
Also, in certain instances the front
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.
OQX069052
FCA system may recognize a vehicle
in the next lane when driving 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 distance.
Also, when necessary depress
the accelerator pedal to prevent
the system from unnecessarily
decelerating your vehicle.

• Driving on a slope
The performance of Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist system may be
decreased while driving upward or
downward on a slope.
The front camera recognition may not
detect the vehicle or pedestrian in
front.
This may result in unnecessary alarm
and braking when necessary.
When FCA suddenly recognizes the
vehicle in front while passing over
a slope, you may experience sharp
deceleration.
Always keep your eyes forward while
driving upward or downward on a
slope, and, if necessary, depress the
brake pedal to reduce your driving
speed in order to maintain a safe
distance.

• Changing lanes
When a vehicle changes lanes in
front of you, FCA system may not
immediately detect the vehicle,
especially if the vehicle changes
lanes abruptly. In this case, you 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.
OQX059034L
When driving in stop-and-go traffic,
and a stopped vehicle in front of you
merges out of the lane, FCA system
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 necessary,
depress the brake pedal to reduce
your driving speed in order to
maintain a safe distance.

Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
system is designed to help detect and
monitor the vehicle ahead or detect a
pedestrian (if equipped) in the roadway
through front view camera recognition
and front radar signals to warn the
driver that a collision is imminent, and if
necessary, apply emergency braking.
WARNING
Take the following precautions when
using Forward Collision-avoidance
Assist system:
• This system is only a supplemental
system and it is not intended to,
nor does it replace the need for
extreme care and attention of
the driver. The sensing range and
objects detectable by the sensors
are limited. Pay attention to the road
conditions at all times.
• NEVER drive too fast in accordance
with the road conditions or while
cornering.
• Always drive cautiously to prevent
unexpected and sudden situations
from occurring. Forward Collision-
Avoidance system may not always
stop the vehicle completely and
is only intended to help mitigate a
collision that is imminent.

FCA Warning Message and
System Control
FCA produces warning messages
and warning alarms in accordance
with the collision risk levels, such
as abrupt stopping of the vehicle in
front, insufficient braking distance, or
pedestrian detection. Also, it controls the
brakes in accordance with the collision
risk levels.
Collision Warning (First warning)
OQX059029L
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.

Brake operation
• In an urgent situation, the braking
system enters into the ready status for
prompt reaction against the driver’s
depressing the brake pedal.
• FCA provides additional braking
power for optimum braking
performance, when the driver
depresses the brake pedal.
• The braking control is automatically
deactivated, when the driver sharply
depresses the accelerator pedal, or
when the driver abruptly operates the
steering wheel.
• FCA braking control is automatically
canceled, when risk factors disappear.
CAUTION
The driver should always use extreme
caution while operating the vehicle,
whether or not there is a warning
message or alarm from FCA system.
• After the brake control is activated,
the driver must immediately depress
the brake pedal and check the
surroundings. The brake activation
by the system lasts for about 2
seconds.
• If any other warning sound such as
seat belt warning chime is already
generated, Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist (FCA) system
warning may not sound.
• Playing the vehicle audio system at
high volume may prevent occupants
from hearing the system warning
sounds.
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
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 FCA system.
WARNING
Never deliberately drive dangerously to
activate the system.

• There is not enough distance between
you and the vehicle in front to be able
to detect the lane line or the vehicle
ahead is driving on the lane line.
• 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.
When front visibility is poor
• The windshield or the LKA system
camera lens is blocked with dirt or
debris.
• The windshield glass is fogged up; a
clear view of the road is obstructed.
• Placing objects on the dashboard, etc.LKA system Function Change
The driver can change LKA to Lane
Departure Warning system or change
LKA system mode between Standard LKA
and Active LKA from the LCD display. Go
to the 'User Settings → Driver Assistance → Active Lane Keeping Assist/Lane Keeping Assist/Lane Departure Warning.
Active Lane Keeping Assist
The Active LKA mode provides more
frequent steering wheel control in
comparison with the LKA mode. Active
LKA can help reduce the driver's fatigue
to assist the steering for maintaining the
vehicle in the middle of the lane.
Lane Keeping Assist
The LKA mode guides the driver to help
keep the vehicle within the lanes. It
rarely controls the steering wheel, when
the vehicle drives well inside the lanes.
However, it starts to control the steering
wheel, when the vehicle is about to
deviate out of the lanes.
Lane Departure Warning
LDW alerts the driver with a visual
warning and a warning alarm when the
system detects the vehicle departing
the lane. The steering wheel will not be
controlled.
