Avoidance Assist system
• When FCA is not working properly,
the FCA warning light ( ) will illu-
minate and the warning message
will appear for a few seconds. After
the message disappears, the mas-
ter warning light ( ) will illumi-
nate. In this case, have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized retailer
of Genesis Branded products.
• The FCA warning message may
appear along with the illumination
of the ESC (Electronic Stability
Control) warning light. Both FCA
warning light and warning mes-
sage will disappear once the ESC
warning light issue is resolved.

• FCA is only a supplemental
system for the driver's con-
venience. It is the driver's
responsibility to control the
vehicle operation. Do not
solely depend on the FCA
system. Rather, maintain a
safe braking distance, and, if
necessary, depress the brake
pedal to reduce the driving
speed or to stop the vehicle.
WARNING
• In certain instances and
under certain driving condi-
tions, the FCA system may
produce a warning alarm and
control the brake system
unnecessarily. And, the FCA
system may not produce a
warning alarm and control the
brake system due to detecting
limitation of sensor.
Also due to sensing limita-
tions, in certain situations, the
front radar sensor or camera
recognition system may not
detect the vehicle, pedestrian
or cyclist ahead. The FCA sys-
tem may not activate and the
warning message may not be
displayed.
• Even if there is any problem
with the brake control func-
tion of the FCA system, the
vehicle's basic braking per-
formance will operate normal-
ly. However, brake control
function for avoiding collision
will not activate.
• If the vehicle in front stops
suddenly, you may have less
control of the brake system.
Therefore, always keep a safe
distance between your vehicle
and the vehicle in front of you.
• The FCA system may activate
during braking and the vehi-
cle may stop suddenly shift-
ing loose objects toward the
passengers. Always keep
loose objects secured.
• The FCA system may not acti-
vate if the driver applies the
brake pedal to avoid collision.

Limitations of the System
The Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist system is designed to monitor
the vehicle ahead or a pedestrian or
cyclist in the roadway through radar
signals and camera recognition to
warn the driver that a collision is
imminent, and if necessary, apply
emergency braking.
In certain situations, the radar sensor
or the camera may not be able to
detect the vehicle, pedestrian or
cyclist ahead. In these cases, the
FCA system may not operate nor-
mally. The driver must pay careful
attention in the following situations
where the FCA operation may be
limited.
Detecting vehicles
The sensor may be limited when:
• The system may not operate for 15
seconds after the engine is started
or the camera is initialized
• The radar sensor or camera is cov-
ered with a foreign object or debris
• The camera lens is contaminated
due to tinted, filmed or coated
windshield, damaged glass, or
stuck of foreign matter (sticker,
bug, etc.) on the glass
• Inclement weather such as heavy
rain or snow obscures the field of
view of the radar sensor or camera
• There is interference by electro-
magnetic waves
• There is severe irregular reflection
from the radar sensor
• The radar/camera sensor recogni-
tion is limited
• The vehicle in front is too small to
be detected (for example a motor-
cycle or a bicycle, etc.) • The FCA system does not
operate when the vehicle is in
reverse.
• The FCA system is not
designed to detect other
objects on the road such as
animals.
• The FCA system does not
detect vehicles in the oppo-
site lane.
• The FCA system does not
detect cross traffic vehicles
that are approaching.
• The FCA system cannot
detect cross traffic cyclists
that are approaching.
• The FCA system cannot
detect vehicles that are
stopped vertically to your
vehicle at a intersection or
dead end street.
In these cases, you must main-
tain a safe braking distance,
and if necessary, depress the
brake pedal to reduce the driv-
ing speed in order to maintain a
safe distance or to stop the
vehicle.
WARNING
• The brake control may not
work, possibly causing a colli-
sion, if a vehicle in front
abruptly stops. Always pay
extreme caution.
• Occupants may get injured, if
the vehicle abruptly stops by
the activated FCA system. Pay
extreme caution.
• The FCA system operates
only when the system detect
vehicles, pedestrian or cyclist
in front of the vehicle.

Driving your vehicle
• The brightness outside is too low
such as when the headlamps are
not on at night or the vehicle is
going through a tunnel
• Inclement weather such as heavy
rain or snow obscures the field of
view of the radar sensor or camera
• Light coming from a street light or
an oncoming vehicle is reflected on
a wet road surface such as a pud-
dle in the road
• The field of view in front is
obstructed by sun glare
• The windshield glass is fogged up;
a clear view of the road is obstruct-
ed
• The adverse road conditions cause
excessive vehicle vibrations while
driving
• The sensor recognition changes
suddenly when passing over a
speed bump
• You are on a roundabout
• The pedestrian or cyclist suddenly
interrupts in front of the vehicle
• There is any other electromagnetic
interference
• The construction area, rail or other
metal object is near
• Bicycle material is not reflected
well on the radar• Do not use the Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist
system when towing a vehi-
cle. Application of the FCA
system while towing may
adversely affect the safety of
your vehicle or the towing
vehicle.
• Use extreme caution when 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.
• Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist system may operate
when an object, which has
similar shape or characteris-
tic to a vehicle, pedestrian or
cyclist, is detected.
• The FCA system is designed
to help detect and monitor the
vehicle ahead or detect a
pedestrian or cyclist in the
roadway through radar sig-
nals and camera recognition.
It is not designed to detect
motorcycles, or smaller
wheeled objects such as lug-
gage bags, shopping carts, or
strollers.
• Never try to test the operation
of the FCA system. Doing so
may cause severe injury or
death.
• If the front bumper, front
glass, radar or camera have
been replaced or repaired,
have the vehicle inspected by
an authorized retailer of
Genesis Branded products.

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.
