Driving your vehicle
Limitations of the System
The driver must be cautious in the
below situations because the system
may not detect other vehicles or
objects in certain circumstances:
• When a trailer or carrier is
installed.
• The vehicle driven in inclement
weather such as heavy rain or
snow.
• The sensor is covered with rain,
snow, mud, etc.
• The rear bumper where the sensor
is located is covered with a foreign
object such as a bumper sticker, a
bumper guard, a bike rack, etc.
• The rear bumper is damaged, or
the sensor is out of the original
default position.
• The vehicle height gets lower or
higher due to heavy loading in a
trunk, abnormal tire pressure, etc.
• When the temperature of the rear
bumper is high.
• When the sensors are blocked by
other vehicles, walls or parking-lot
pillars.
• The vehicle is driven on a curved
road.
• The vehicle is driven through a toll-
gate.
• The road pavement (or the periph-
eral ground) abnormally contains
metallic components (i.e. possibly
due to subway construction).
• There is a fixed object near the
vehicle, such as a guardrail.
• While going down or up a steep
road where the height of the lane is
different.• Driving on a narrow road where
trees or grass or overgrown.
• Driving in rural areas where the
sensor does not detect another
vehicle or structure for an extended
period of time.
• Driving on a wet road.
• Driving on a road where the
guardrail or wall is in double struc-
ture.
• A big vehicle is near such as a bus
or truck.
• When the other vehicle approach-
es very close.
• When the other vehicle passes at a
very fast speed.
• While changing lanes.
• If the vehicle has started at the
same time as the vehicle next to
you and has accelerated.
• When the vehicle in the next lane
moves two lanes away from you
OR when the vehicle two lanes
away moves to the next lane from
you.
• A motorcycle or bicycle is near.
• A flat trailer is near.
• If there are small objects in the
detecting area such as a shopping
cart or a baby stroller.
• If there is a low height vehicle such
as a sports car.

• 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 sur-
rounding when backing 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
depending on traffic and driv-
ing conditions.
• 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 cautiously to
prevent unexpected and sud-
den situations from occurring.
Pay attention to the road condi-
tions 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 (0 km/h)
vehicle speed) vehicle.
• The system's warning or brake
may not operate properly if the
left or right of your vehicle's
rear bumper is blocked by a
vehicle or obstacle.
• Always pay attention to road
and traffic conditions while
driving, 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 pre-
vent occupants from hearing
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.
CAUTION

Driving your vehicle
Detecting Sensor
The rear radars are located inside
the rear bumper for detecting the
side and rear areas. Always keep the
rear bumper clean for proper opera-
tion of the system.
• The system may not work prop-
erly when the bumper has been
damaged, or if the rear bumper
has been replaced or repaired.
• The system may turn off if inter-
fered by electromagnetic waves.
• Always keep the sensors clean.
• NEVER disassemble the sensor
component or apply any impact
on the sensor component.
• 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 system may not
operate correctly. In this case, a
warning message may not be
displayed. Have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized
retailer of Genesis Branded
products.• Do not apply foreign objects
such as a bumper sticker or a
bumper guard near the radar
sensor or apply paint to the sen-
sor area. Doing so may adverse-
ly affect the performance of the
sensor.
Warning message
Blind-Spot Collision Warning
(BCW) system disabled. Radar
blocked
This warning message may appear
when:
- One or both of the sensors on the
rear bumper is blocked by dirt or
snow or a foreign object.
- Driving in rural areas where the
sensor does not detect another
vehicle for an extended period of
time.
- When there is inclement weather
such as heavy snow or rain.
If any of these conditions occur, the
light on the BCW/BCA switch and the
system will turn off automatically.

Sensor to Detect Distance to
the Vehicle Ahead
The Smart Cruise Control uses a
sensor to detect distance to the vehi-
cle ahead.
If the sensor is covered with dirt or
other foreign matter, the vehicle to
vehicle distance control may not
operate correctly.
Always keep the sensor clean.
Warning message
Smart Cruise Control disabled.
Radar blocked
When the sensor lens cover is cov-
ered with dirt, snow, or debris, the
Smart Cruise Control system opera-
tion may stop temporarily. If this
occurs, a warning message will
appear on the cluster LCD display.Remove any dirt, snow, or debris and
clean the radar sensor lens cover
before operating the Smart Cruise
Control system.
The Smart Cruise Control system
may not properly activate, if the radar
is totally covered, or if any substance
is not detected after turning ON the
engine (e.g. in an open terrain).
Information
For the SCC operation is temporarily
stopped if the radar is blocked, but you
wish to use cruise control mode (speed
control function), you must convert to
the cruise control mode (refer to "To
convert to Cruise Control mode" in
the following page.
