Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
assesses the risk of a collision by
monitoring several variables such as
the distance to the vehicle/pedestri-
an ahead, the speed of the
vehicle/pedestrian ahead, and the
driver's operation of the vehicle.
Certain conditions such as
inclement weather and road condi-
tions may affect the operation of
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist.
For the function operation, do not
attempt risky driving.
✽ ✽NOTICE
• Use only soft clothes to wash the
vehicle. Do not spray pressurized
water directly on the sensor or
sensor cover.
• Use only genuine parts to repair or replace a damaged sensor or sen-
sor cover. Do not apply paint to
the sensor cover.
• Do not tint the window or install stickers or accessories around the
inside mirror where the camera is
installed.
• Make sure the front view camera installation point does not get wet.
• Do not impact or remove any front view camera components.
• Do not place reflective objects (white paper or mirror etc.) on the
dashboard. The function may acti-
vate unnecessarily due to reflec-
tion of the sunlight.
Warning message and warning
light

■ Vehicle detection
WARNING
The detecting range of the
rear corner radar is deter-
mined by the standard road
width, therefore, on a narrow
road, the function may detect
other vehicles in the next lane
and warn you. In contrast, on
a wide road, the function may
not be able to detect a vehicle
driving in the next lane and
may not warn you.
When the hazard warning light is on, the collision warn-
ing by the turn signal will not
operate.
For your safety, change the Settings after parking the
vehicle at a safe location.
If any other function's warn- ing message is displayed or
audible warning is generated,
Blind-Spot Collision
Warning's warning message
may not be displayed and
audible warning may not be
generated.

Driving your vehicle
Adjust your mirrors to reduce theglare from other driver's head-
lights.
Keep your headlights clean and properly aimed on vehicles not
equipped with the automatic head-
light aiming feature. Dirty or
improperly aimed headlights will
make it much more difficult to see
at night.
Avoid staring directly at the head- lights of oncoming vehicles. You
could be temporarily blinded, and it
will take several seconds for your
eyes to readjust to the darkness.Driving in the rain
Rain and wet roads can make driving
dangerous, especially if you’re not
prepared for the slick pavement.
Here are a few things to consider
when driving in the rain:
A heavy rainfall will make it harderto see and will increase the dis-
tance needed to stop your vehicle,
so slow down.
Keep your windshield wiping equipment in good shape. Replace
your windshield wiper blades when
they show signs of streaking or
missing areas on the windshield. If your tires are not in good condi-
tion, making a quick stop on wet
pavement can cause a skid and
possibly lead to an accident. Be
sure your tires are in good shape.
Turn on your headlights to make it easier for others to see you.
Driving too fast through large pud- dles can affect your brakes. If you
must go through puddles, try to
drive through them slowly.
If you believe you may have gotten your brakes wet, apply them lightly
while driving until normal braking
operation returns.
