System Description
Blind-Spot Collision Warning
(BCW)
The Blind-Spot Collision Warning
system uses radar sensors in the
rear bumper to monitor and warn the
driver when it detects an approach-
ing 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 it detects a vehicle is
approaching in an adjacent lane at a
high rate of speed. If the driver acti-
vates the turn signal when the sys-
tem detects an oncoming vehicle, the
system sounds an audible alert.
Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance
Assist (BCA)
The Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance
Assist system helps detect the front
lane through the camera installed on
the upper front windshield and helps
detect the side/rear areas through
radar sensors.

Warning and System Control
Blind-Spot Collision Warning
(BCW) system
First stage alert
If a vehicle is detected within the
boundary of the system, a warning
light will illuminate on the outer side
view mirror and the head up display.
If the detected vehicle is no longer
within the blind spot area, the warn-
ing will turn off according to the driv-
ing conditions of the vehicle.
[A] : Warning sound
Second stage alert
A warning chime to alert the driver
will activate when:
1. A vehicle has been detected in the
blind spot area by the radar sys-
tem (the warning light will illumi-
nate on the outer side view mirror
and/or the head up display (i.e, in
the first stage alert)) AND
2. The turn signal is applied (same
side as where the vehicle is being
detected).
When this alert is activated, the
warning light on the outer side view
mirror and/or the head up display will
also blink.
If you turn off the turn signal indica-
tor, the second stage alert (the warn-
ing chime and the blinking warning
light) will be deactivated.

changing a lane. If you change
lanes without the turn signal on,
the steering wheel might be con-
trolled.
• The vehicle is not driven in the mid-
dle of the lane when the system is
turned on or right after changing a

turely even if the vehicle does not
depart from the intended lane, OR,
the LFA system may not assist your
steering or warn you if the vehicle
leaves the intended lane under the
following circumstances:
When the lane and road condi-
tions are poor
• It is difficult to distinguish the lane
marking from the road surface or
the lane marking is faded or not
clearly marked.
• It is difficult to distinguish the color
of the lane marker from the road.
• There are markings on the road
surface that look like a lane marker
that is inadvertently being detected
by the camera.
• The lane marker is indistinct or
damaged.
• The lane marker is merged or
divided. (e.g. tollgate)
• The lane number increases or
decreases or the lane marker are
crossing complicatedly.
• There are more than two lane
markers on the road in front of you.
• The lane marker is very thick or
thin.
• The lane is very wide or narrow.
• The lane marker ahead is not visi-
ble due to rain, snow, water on the
road, damaged or stained road
surface, or other factors.

noise barriers, etc.
• The lane markers are complicated
or a structure substitutes for the

Check Lane Keeping Assist
(LKA) system
If there is a problem with the system
a message will appear for a few sec-
onds. If the problem continues the
LKA system failure indicator will illu-
minate.
LKA system indicator
The LKA system indica-
tor (yellow) will illuminate
if the LKA system is not
working properly. Have
the system checked by
an authorized retailer of
Genesis Branded prod-
ucts.
When there is a problem with the
system do one of the following:
• Turn the system on after turning
the engine off and on again.
• Check if the Engine Start/Stop but-
ton is in the ON position.
• Check if the system is affected by the
weather (e.g. fog, heavy rain, etc.).
• Check if there is foreign matter on
the camera lens.
If the problem is not solved, we rec-
ommend that the system be checked
by an authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products.
The LKA system will not be in the
ENABLED state and/or the steering
wheel will not be assisted when:
• The turn signal is turned on before
changing a lane. If you change
lanes without the turn signal on,
the steering wheel might be con-
trolled.
• The vehicle is not driven in the mid-
dle of the lane when the system is
turned on or right after changing a

Warning Message
Hands-off warning
Keep hands on steering wheel
If the driver takes their hands off the
steering wheel for several seconds
while the HDA system is activated,
the system will warn the driver.
Information
If the steering wheel is held with a
light grip, the message may appear
because the HDA system may not rec-
ognize that the driver has their hands
on the steering wheel.
Highway Driving Assist (HDA)
system canceled
If the driver still does not have their
hands on the steering wheel after the
message "Keep hands on steering
wheel", the HDA system will be can-
celed. However, if the Smart Cruise
Control is reactivated manually by
the driver, the Highway Driving
Assist System will reactivate.
To activate Smart Cruise control,
refer to "Smart Cruise Control
with Stop and Go" in chapter 5.
The HDA system will not be in the
ENABLED state and/or the steer-
ing wheel will not be assisted
when:
• The turn signal is turned on before
changing a lane. If you change
lanes without the turn signal on,
the steering wheel might be con-
trolled.
• The vehicle is not driven in the mid-
dle of the lane when the system is
turned on or right after changing a
lane.
• ESC (Electronic Stability Control)
or VSM (Vehicle Stability
Management) is activated.
• The vehicle is driven on a sharp
curve.
• Vehicle speed is over 95 mph (153
km/h).
i
The warning message may
appear late according to road
conditions. Therefore, always
have your hands on the steering
wheel while driving.

The Blind-Spot View Monitor system
displays the left or right side of the
rear blind spot area of your vehicle in
the instrument cluster when the left
or right turn signal is on. This function
helps you drive safely when chang-
ing lanes.
• The system is activated when the
following steps are performed.
1. The engine is running.
2. The turn signal is turned on.
• The system is deactivated when
one of the following is performed.
- The Engine Start/Stop button is in
the OFF position.
- The turn signal is turned off
- The hazard warning flasher is on
- A warning screen pops up and
takes priority over the Blind-Spot
View Monitor system.
BLIND-SPOT VIEW MONITOR SYSTEM
• This system is a supplemental
system only. It is the responsi-
bility of the driver to always
check the area around the
vehicle before and while mak-
ing turns or changing lanes.
• ALWAYS look around your
vehicle to make sure there are
no objects or obstacles
before moving the vehicle in
any direction to prevent a col-
lision.
• Objects are closer than they
appear. Failure to visually
confirm that is safe to change
the lane before doing so may
result in crash and serious
injury or death.
• Always keep the camera lens
clean. The camera may not
work normally if the lens is
covered with foreign sub-
stance.

What to do in an emergency
The hazard warning flasher serves
as a warning to other drivers to exer-
cise extreme caution when approach-
ing, overtaking, or passing your vehi-
cle.
It should be used whenever emer-
gency repairs are being made or
when the vehicle is stopped near the
edge of a roadway.
To turn the hazard warning flasher
on or off, press the hazard warning
flasher button. The button is located
in the center fascia panel. Both the
left and right turn signal lights will
flash simultaneously.
• The hazard warning flasher oper-
ates whether your vehicle is run-
ning or not.
• The turn signals do not work when
the hazard flasher is on.
If the Engine Stalls While
Driving
• Reduce your speed gradually,
keeping a straight line. Move cau-
tiously off the road to a safe place.
• Turn on your hazard warning flash-
er.
• Try to start the engine again. If your
vehicle will not start, contact an
authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products or seek other
qualified assistance.
If the Engine Stalls at a
Crossroad or Crossing
If the engine stalls at a crossroad or
crossing, if safe to do so, move the
shift lever to the N (Neutral) position
and then push the vehicle to a safe
location.
