System Description
Rear Cross-Traffic Collision
Warning (RCCW) system
The Rear Cross-Traffic Collision
Warning system uses radar sensors
to monitor the approaching cross
traffic from the left and right side of
the vehicle when your vehicle is in
reverse.
The blind spot detection range varies
relative to the approaching vehicle
speed.
Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-
Avoidance Assist (RCCA) sys-
tem
The Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-
Avoidance Assist system monitors
approaching cross traffic from the left
and right side of the vehicle when
your vehicle is in reverse.
The Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-
Avoidance Assist system may acti-
vate the Electronic Stability Control
in accordance with a possible colli-
sion with an approaching vehicle. It is
to lower the possible collision risk or
mitigate the possible collision dam-
age.
REAR CROSS-TRAFFIC COLLISION WARNING (RCCW)/
REAR CROSS-TRAFFIC COLLISION-AVOIDANCE ASSIST (RCCA)
• Always be aware of road and
traffic conditions while driving
and be alert for unexpected sit-
uations even though the Rear
Cross-Traffic Collision Warning
system and Rear Cross-Traffic
Collision-Avoidance Assist
system are operating.
• The Rear Cross-Traffic
Collision Warning system and
Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-
Avoidance Assist system are
supplemental systems to
assist you. Do not entirely rely
on the systems. Always pay
attention, while driving, for
your safety.
• The Rear Cross-Traffic
Collision Warning system and
Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-
Avoidance Assist system are
not substitutes for proper and
safe driving. Always drive safe-
ly and use caution when back-
ing up the vehicle.

Warning and System Control
Rear Cross-Traffic Collision Warning (RCCW) system
If the vehicle detected by the sensors approaches from the rear left/right side
of your vehicle, the warning chime will sound, the warning light on the outer
side view mirror will blink and a warning will appear on the cluster LCD dis-
play. If the rear view monitor system is operating, a warning will also appear
on the AVN system screen.
The warning will stop when:
- the detected vehicle moves out of the sensing area or
- when the vehicle is right behind your vehicle or
- when the vehicle is not approaching your vehicle or
- when the other vehicle slows down.

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.
