Detecting pedestrians or cyclists
The sensor may be limited when:
• The pedestrian or cyclist is not fully
detected by the camera recognition
system, for example, if the pedestrian
is leaning over or is not fully walking
upright
• The pedestrian or cyclist is moving
very quickly or appears abruptly in the
camera detection area
• The pedestrian or cyclist is wearing
clothing that easily blends into the
background, making it difficult to be
detected by the camera recognition
system
• The outside lighting is too bright (e.g.
when driving in bright sunlight or
in sun glare) or too dark (e.g. when
driving on a dark rural road at night)
• It is difficult to detect and distinguish
the pedestrian or cyclist from other
objects in the surroundings, for
example, when there is a group of
pedestrians, cyclists or a large crowd
• There is an item similar to a person’s
body structure
• The pedestrian or cyclist is small
• The pedestrian has impaired mobility
• The sensor recognition is limited
• The radar sensor or camera is blocked
with a foreign object or debris
• Inclement weather such as heavy rain
or snow obscures the field of view of
the radar sensor or camera
• When light coming from a street light
or an oncoming vehicle is reflected on
a wet road surface such as a puddle 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 obstructed
• 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
• The cyclist in front is riding intersected
with the driving direction
• There is any other electromagnetic
interference
• The construction area, rail or other
metal object is near the cyclist
• The bicycle material is not reflected
well on the radar
WARNING
Turn off Forward Collision avoidance
Assist system through cluster or
infotainment system before towing
a vehicle. Application of 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.

Limitations of the system
Junction Turning function is only a
supplemental system for driver’s safety
whilst turning left on the crossroads. The
driver should hold the responsibility to
control the vehicle. The system monitors
the oncoming vehicle ahead the road
through the front view camera and
radar. In certain situations, the front view
camera and radar may not be able to
detect the oncoming vehicles properly.
The driver must pay careful attention
in the following situations where the
system operation may be limited or it
may activate unintentionally.
The sensor may be limited when:
• The radar sensor or camera
recognizes the approaching vehicle
too late.
• The radar sensor or camera is blocked
with a foreign object or debris.
• The driving direction of the
approaching vehicle is irregular or
frontal.
• The approaching vehicle changes
lanes too late or decelerates suddenly.
• The angle of the approaching vehicle
is out of range.
• Whilst circling, the sensor (the front
view camera or front radar) does not
detect the approaching vehicle.
• The driving speed of the approaching
vehicle is too fast or slow.
• The head lamps of the approaching
vehicle are turned off or asymmetrical. •
The approaching vehicle stops whilst
turning left.
• The vehicle moves out of its lane or
returns to its lane.
• The vehicle changes lanes suddenly
at a low speed whilst there is an
approaching vehicle.
• The brightness outside is too so it
does not detect the vehicle.
• Inclement weather such as heavy rain
or snow obscures the field of view of
the front view camera or front radar.
• The approaching vehicle is covered
with snow.
• The field of view in front is obstructed
by sun glare.
• The shape of approaching vehicle is
unusual.
• Whilst driving upward or downward
on a slope.

LKA Operation
ODN8069059
To activate/deactivate LKA system:
With the ignition switch in the ON
position, press Lane Safety button
located on the instrument panel on the
left hand side of the steering wheel.
The
indicator in the cluster
display will initially illuminate white. This
indicates LKA system is in the READY but
NOT ENABLED state.
Note that the vehicle speed
must be at least approximately
40 mph (64 km/h) to ENABLE
LKA system. The indicator in the
cluster display will illuminate
green.
- White: Sensor does not detect lane
markers or vehicle speed is under 40
mph (64 km/h).
-Green: Sensor detects lane markers
and the system is able to control
vehicle steering.
Information
If the indicator (white) is activated from
the previous ignition cycle, the system will
turn ON without any additional control.
If you press the Lane Safety button again,
the indicator on the cluster goes off.
LKA System Function Change
The driver can change LKA to
Lane Departure Warning or Lane
Keeping Assist from the LCD display
or infotainment system display(if
equipped). Go to the ‘User Settings → Driver Assistance → Lane Safety → Lane Keeping Assist/Lane Departure Warning/
Off'. The system is automatically set to
Lane Keeping Assist if a function is not
changed.
Lane Keeping Assist
The LKA mode guides the driver to help
keep the vehicle within the lanes. It
rarely controls the steering wheel, when
the vehicle drives well inside the lanes.
However, it starts to control the steering
wheel, when the vehicle is about to
deviate out of the lanes.
Lane Departure Warning
LDW alerts the driver with a visual
warning and a warning alarm when the
system detects the vehicle departing
the lane. The steering wheel will not be
controlled.

System Description
Blind-Spot Collision Warning
Blind-Spot Collision Warning system
uses rear corner radar sensors to monitor
and warn the driver of an approaching
vehicle in the driver’s blind spot area.
(1) Blind-spot vehicle warning
OIK057138
BCW system detects and warns vehicles
in blind-spot.
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) Fast approach vehicle warning
OIK057139L
BCW system will alert you when a vehicle
is detected approaching in an adjacent
lane at a high rate of speed. If the driver
activates the turn signal when the system
detects an oncoming vehicle, the system
sounds an audible alert.
Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance
Assist
ODN8H059322
Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist
system detects the front lane through the
front view camera installed on the upper
front windshield and detects the side/
rear areas through rear corner radars.

WARNING
• The driver is responsible for accurate
steering.
• Do not unnecessarily operate the
steering wheel, when Blind-Spot
Collision-Avoidance Assist system is
in operation.
• Always pay extreme caution while
driving. The Blind-Spot Collision-
Avoidance Assist system may not
operate or unnecessarily operate
in accordance with your driving
situations.
• Blind-Spot 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 sudden situations
from occurring. Pay attention to the
road conditions at all times.

ODN8069031L
Front view camera
The front view camera is a sensor
detecting the lane. If the sensors are
covered with snow, rain or foreign
substance, the system may temporarily
be cancelled and not work properly
until the system is cancelled due to the
degradation of the sensor’s detection
performance. Always keep the sensor
clean.

Refer to Lane Keeping Assist (LKA) for cautions for the front view camera.

Rear corner radar
The rear corner radars are the sensors
inside the rear bumper for detecting the
side and rear areas. Always keep the rear
bumper clean for proper operation of the
system.
CAUTION
• The system may not work properly
when the bumper has been
damaged, or if the rear bumper has
been replaced or repaired.
• The sensing range differs somewhat
according to the width of the road.
When the road is narrow, the system
may detect other vehicles in the next
lane. On the other hand, when the
road is wide, the system may not
detect vehicles on both lanes and
may not warn.
• The system may turn off due to
strong electromagnetic waves.
• Always keep the sensors clean.
• NEVER arbitrarily disassemble the
sensor component nor apply any
impact on the sensor component.
• Be careful not to apply unnecessary
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 HYUNDAI
dealer. •
Do not apply foreign objects such as
a bumper sticker or a bumper guard
near the radar sensor or apply paint
to the sensor area. Doing so may
adversely affect the performance of
the sensor.
• NEVER install any accessories or
stickers on the front windshield, nor
tint the front windshield.
• Pay extreme caution to keep the
front view camera out of water.
• NEVER locate any reflective objects
(i.e. white paper, mirror) over the
crash pad. Any light reflection may
cause a malfunction of the system.
