CAUTION
• Depending on the condition of the
vehicle, pedestrian and cyclist in
front and the surroundings, the
speed range to operate Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist may
reduce. The system may only warn
the driver, or the system may not
operate.
• Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
will operate under certain conditions
by judging the risk level based on
the condition of the oncoming
vehicle, driving direction, speed and
surroundings.
• When a collision with a surrounding
vehicle is expected, Lane-Change
Oncoming, Lane-Change Side and
Evasive Steering Assist functions will
only warn the driver (if equipped).
Information
In a situation collision is imminent,
braking may be assisted by Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist when braking
is insufficient by the driver.

System disabled
OJX1079005LOJX1079212L
When the front windshield where the
front view camera is located, front radar
cover, bumper or sensor is covered with
foreign material, such as snow or rain, it
can reduce the detecting performance
and temporarily limit or disable Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist.
If this occurs the ‘Forward Safety system
disabled. Camera obscured’ or the
‘Forward Safety system disabled. Radar
blocked’ warning message, and the

and warning lights will illuminate on
the cluster.
The system will operate normally when
snow, rain or foreign matter is removed.
If the system does not operate normally
after obstruction (snow, rain, or foreign
material) is removed (including trailer,
carrier, etc. from the rear bumper), have
the system inspected by an authorized
retailer of Genesis Branded products.

• Even though the warning message or
warning light does not appear on the
cluster, Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist may not properly operate.
• Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
may not properly operate in an
area (e.g. open terrain), where any
substance are not detected after
turning ON the engine.

not operate normally, or the system
may operate unexpectedly under the
following circumstances:
• The detecting sensor or the
surroundings are contaminated or

WARNING
• Driving on a curve
OADAS014SD
OADAS016SDOADAS018SD
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
may not detect other vehicles,
pedestrians or cyclists in front of you
on curved roads adversely affecting
the performance of the sensors. This
may result in no warning, braking
assist or steering assist (if equipped)
when necessary.
When driving on a curve, you must
maintain a safe braking distance,
and if necessary, steer the vehicle
and depress the brake pedal to
reduce your driving speed in order to
maintain a safe distance.
OADAS015SD
OADAS017SDOADAS019SD
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
may detect a vehicle, pedestrian or
cyclist in the next lane or outside the
lane when driving on a curved road.
If this occurs, the system may
unnecessarily warn the driver and
control the brake or steering wheel
(if equipped). Always check the
traffic conditions around the vehicle.

07
7-23
• Driving on a slope
OADAS012SD
OADAS010SDOADAS011SD
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
may not detect other vehicles,
pedestrians or cyclists in front of
you while driving uphill or downhill
adversely affecting the performance
of the sensors
This may result in unnecessary
warning, braking assist or steering
assist (if equipped) or no warning,
braking assist or steering assist (if
equipped) when necessary.
Also, vehicle speed may rapidly
decrease when a vehicle, pedestrian
or cyclist ahead is suddenly
detected.
Always have your eyes on the road
while driving uphill or downhill and
if necessary, steer your vehicle and
depress the brake pedal to reduce
your driving speed in order to
maintain a safe distance.
• Changing lanes
OADAS030SD[A] : Your vehicle, [B] : Lane changing vehicle
When a vehicle moves into your lane
from an adjacent lane, it cannot
be detected by the sensor until it
is in the sensor's detection range.
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
may not immediately detect the
vehicle when the vehicle changes
lanes abruptly. In this case, you must
maintain a safe braking distance,
and if necessary, steer your vehicle
and depress the brake pedal to
reduce your driving speed in order to
maintain a safe distance.

Driver Assistance system
7-24
OADAS031SD[A] : Your vehicle, [B] : Lane changing vehicle,
[C] : Same lane vehicle
When a vehicle in front of you
merges out of the lane, Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist may not
immediately detect the vehicle that
is now in front of you. In this case,
you must maintain a safe braking
distance, and if necessary, steer your
vehicle and depress the brake pedal
to reduce your driving speed in order
to maintain a safe distance.
• Detecting vehicle
ORG3070006
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 attention is
required. Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist 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 necessary, steer your vehicle
and depress the brake pedal to
reduce your driving speed in order to
maintain distance.
