System description
Blind-Spot Collision Warning system
uses radar sensors in the rear
bumper to monitor and warn the driv-er when it detects an approaching
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
BCW system will alert you when it
detects a vehicle is approaching in
an adjacent lane at a high rate of
speed. If the driver activates the turnsignal when the system detects an
oncoming vehicle, the system
sounds an audible alert.

system. Do not solely rely on
the system but check your
surroundings before chang-
ing lanes or backing the vehi-
cle up.
The system may not alert the driver in some situations dueto system limitations so
always check your surround-ings while driving.
WARNING
Always pay attention to road and traffic conditions while
driving, whether or not thewarning light on the outside
rearview mirror illuminates orthere is a warning alarm.

The system may not work prop-erly when the bumper has been
damaged, or if the rear bumperhas been replaced or repaired.
The sensing range differs some- what according to the width of
the road. When the road is nar-
row, the system may detect
other vehicles in the next lane.
The system may turn off if inter- fered by strong 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. We recommend that
the vehicle be inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
