and transmission control
logic for enhanced driver
performance.
• When SPORT mode is selected by
using the DRIVE MODE button, the
SPORT indicator will illuminate.
• Whenever the engine is restarted,
the Drive Mode will revert back to
NORMAL mode. If SPORT mode is
desired, re-select SPORT mode from
the DRIVE MODE button.
• When SPORT mode is activated:
- The engine rpm will t

end to remain
raised over a certain length of time
even after releasing the accelerator
- Upshifts ar

e delayed when
accelerating
Information
In SPORT mode, the fuel efficiency may
decrease.
SMART mode
00360030002400350037
SMART mode selects the
proper driving mode among
NORMAL and SPORT by
judging the driver’s driving
habits (i.e. Economic or
Aggressive (Sportive)) from
the brake pedal depression
or the steering wheel
operation.
• Toggle the DRIVE MODE button to
select SMART mode. When SMART
mode is selected, the indicator
illuminates on the instrument cluster.
• SMART mode automatically controls
the vehicle driving, such as gear
shifting patterns and engine torque,
in accordance with the driver’s driving
habits.
Information
When you dynamically drive the vehicle
in SMART mode by abruptly decelerating
or sharply turning the driving mode
changes to SPORT mode. However, it may
adversely affect fuel economy.

Various driving situations, which you may
encounter in SMART mode
• The driving mode automatically
changes to SMART SPORT, when
you abruptly accelerate the vehicle
or repetitively operate the steering
wheel (Your driving is categorized
to be sporty.). In this mode, your
vehicle drives in a lower gear for
abrupt accelerating/decelerating
and increases the engine brake
performance.
• You may still sense the engine
braking performance, even when
you release the accelerator pedal in
SMART SPORT mode. It is because
your vehicle remains in lower gear
over a certain period of time for next
acceleration. Thus, it is a normal
driving situation, not indicating any
malfunction.
• The driving mode automatically
changes to SMART SPORT mode only
in harsh driving situations. In most
of the normal driving situations, the
driving mode sets to be in SMART
NORMAL mode. Limitation of SMART mode
The SMART mode may be limited in
following situations. (The OFF indicator
illuminates in those situations.)
•
The driver uses the paddle shifter
(manual shift mode) :
It deactivates SMART mode. The
vehicle drives, as the driver manually
changes gear with the paddle shifter.
• The cruise control is activated :
The cruise control system may
deactivate the SMART mode when
the vehicle is controlled by the set
speed of Smart Cruise Control system.
(SMART mode is not deactivated
just by activating the cruise control
system.)
• The transmission oil temperature is
either extremely low or extremely
high :
The SMART mode can be active in
most of the normal driving situations.
However, an extremely high/ low
transmission oil temperature may
temporarily deactivate the SMART
mode, because the transmission
condition is out of normal operation
condition.

Prerequisite for activation
FCA gets ready to be activated, when
‘Active Assist’ or ‘Warning Only’ under
Forward Safety is selected in the cluster
LCD display, and when the following
prerequisites are satisfied.
-ESC (Electr

onic Stability Control) is on.
- Vehicle speed is over 6 mph (10 km/h ).
(FCA is only activated within a certain
speed range.)
- The s

ystem detects a pedestrian,
cyclist or a vehicle in front, which may
collide with your vehicle. However,
FCA may not be activated or may only
sound a warning alarm depending on
the driving or vehicle conditions.
FCA may not operate properly according
to the frontal situation, condition of the
vehicle, the direction of pedestrian or
cyclist or speed. If you select "Warning
Only", only warnings occur.
WARNING
To avoid driver distractions, do not
attempt to set or cancel FCA while
driving the vehicle. Always completely
stop the vehicle at a safe place before
setting or canceling the system.
FCA automatically activates upon
placing the ignition switch to the ON
position. The driver can deactivate FCA
by canceling the system setting on the
cluster LCD display or infotainment
system display (if equipped).
FCA automatically deactivates upon
canceling ESC (Electronic Stability
Control). When ESC is canceled, FCA
cannot be activated in the LCD display
or infotainment system display (if
equipped). In this situation, the FCA
warning light will illuminate which is
normal.
FCA Warning Message and Brake
Control
FCA produces warning messages,
warning alarms, and emergency braking
based on the level of risk of a frontal
collision, such as when a vehicle ahead
suddenly brakes, or the system detects
that a collision with a pedestrian or
cyclist is imminent.
Collision warning (First warning)
ODN8H069201L
This warning message appears on the
LCD display with a warning chime.
Additionally, some vehicle system
intervention occurs by the engine
management system to help decelerate
the vehicle.
While Driving

6-43
• Your vehicle speed may decelerate
moderately.
• If FCA detects a vehicle in front, the
system operates when your vehicle
speed is between 6 mph (10 km/h )
and 112 mph (180 km/h). Maximum
vehicle speed may decrease
depending on the condition of the
vehicle ahead and surroundings.
• If FCA detects a pedestrian or cyclist
in front, the system operates when
your vehicle speed is between 6
mph (10 km/h ) and 53 mph (85
km/h). Maximum vehicle speed may
decrease depending on the condition
of the pedestrian or cyclist ahead and
surroundings.
• If you select ‘Warning Only’ for the
system setting, FCA system activates
and produces only warning alarms
in accordance with the collision risk
levels. You should control the brake
directly because FCA system will not
control the brake.Emergency braking (Second
warning)
ODN8H069202L
This warning message appears on the
LCD display with a warning chime.
Additionally, some vehicle system
intervention occurs by the engine
management system to help decelerate
the vehicle.
• FCA system limitedly controls the
brakes to preemptively mitigate
impact in a collision. The brake control
is maximized just before a collision.
• If FCA detects a vehicle in front, the
system operates when your vehicle
speed is above 6 mph (10 km/h ) and
47 mph (75 km/h) or under. Maximum
vehicle speed may decrease
depending on the condition of the
vehicle ahead and surroundings.
• If FCA detects a pedestrian or cyclist
in front, the system operates when
your vehicle speed is between 6 mph
(10 km/h) or above and under 40 mph
(65 km/h). Maximum vehicle speed
may decrease depending on the
condition of the pedestrian or cyclist
ahead or surroundings.
• If you select ‘Warning Only’ for the
system setting, FCA system activates
and produces only warning alarms
in accordance with the collision risk
levels. You should control the brake
directly because FCA system will not
control the brake.

6-44
Brake operation
• In an urgent situation, the braking
system enters into the ready status for
prompt reaction against the driver’s
depressing the brake pedal.
• FCA provides additional braking
power for optimum braking
performance, when the driver
depresses the brake pedal.
• The braking control is automatically
deactivated, when the driver sharply
depresses the accelerator pedal, or
when the driver abruptly operates the
steering wheel.
• FCA brake control is automatically
canceled, when risk factors disappear.
CAUTION
• The driver should always use
extreme caution while operating
the vehicle, whether or not there is a
warning message or alarm from FCA
system.
• After the brake control is activated,
the driver must immediately depress
the brake pedal and check the
surroundings. The brake activation
by the system lasts for about 2
seconds.
• If any other warning sound such as
seat belt warning chime is already
generated, Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist system warning
may not sound.
• Playing the vehicle audio system at
high volume may prevent occupants
from hearing the system warning
sounds.
WARNING
The braking control cannot completely
stop the vehicle nor avoid all
collisions. The driver should hold the
responsibility to safely drive and control
the vehicle.
WARNING
The FCA system logic operates within
certain parameters, such as the
distance from the vehicle, pedestrian or
cyclist (if equipped) ahead, the speed
of the vehicle ahead, and the driver’s
vehicle speed. Certain conditions
such as inclement weather and road
conditions may affect the operation of
FCA system.
WARNING
Never deliberately drive dangerously to
activate the system.
Information
Exceptional operation of the braking assist
system
• The vehicle drives on a slope or curve.
• The vehicle drives by a pedestrian or
cyclist at the crossroads, traffic signals
or structure.
• The vehicle drives through a tunnel or
near a railroad.
• The vehicle drives where steam, smoke
or shadow is on the road.
• The vehicle drives the road tree planted
or streetlamps installed.
• There is interference by
electromagnetic waves or electric noise.

OAD058171LOIK057091L
Check Forward Collision Avoidance Assist
system
When FCA is not working properly, FCA
warning light (
) will illuminate and the
warning message will appear for a few
seconds. After the message disappears,
the master warning light (
) will
illuminate. In this case, have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
The FCA warning message may appear
along with the illumination of the ESC
(Electronic Stability Control) warning
light. Both FCA warning light and
warning message will disappear once the
ESC warning light issue is resolved.
WARNING
• FCA is only a supplemental system
for the driver's convenience. The
driver should hold the responsibility
to control the vehicle operation. Do
not solely depend on 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.
• In certain instances and under
certain driving conditions, FCA
system may activate unintentionally.
This initial warning message appears
on the LCD display with a warning
chime.
Also due to sensing limitations, in
certain situations, the front radar
sensor or camera recognition
system may not detect the vehicle,
pedestrian or cyclist (if equipped)
ahead. FCA system may not activate
and the warning message may not be
displayed.
• Even if there is any problem with
the brake control function of FCA
system, the vehicle’s basic braking
performance will operate normally.
However, brake control function for
avoiding collision will not activate.
