CAUTION
Take the following precautions to
maintain optimal performance of the
detecting sensor: • Never disassemble the detecting
sensor or sensor assembly, or apply
any impact on it.
• If the detecting sensors have been
replaced or repaired, we recommend
that you have your vehicle inspected
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
• Never install any accessories or
stickers on the front windshield, or
tint the front windshield.
• Pay extreme caution to keep the
front view camera dry.
• Never place any reflective objects
(i.e. white paper, mirror) over the
dashboard.
• Do not apply license plate frame or
objects, such as a bumper sticker,
film or a bumper guard, near the
front radar cover.
• Always keep the front radar and
cover clean and free of dirt and debris.
Use only a soft cloth to wash the
vehicle. Do not spray pressurized
water directly on the sensor or
sensor cover.
• If unnecessary force has been
applied to the radar or around the
radar, Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist may not properly operate
even though a warning message
does not appear on the cluster. We
recommend that the vehicle be
inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
• Use only genuine parts to repair or
replace a damaged front radar cover.
Do not apply paint to the front radar
cover.Forward Collision-Avoidance

the driver with a warning message,
an audible warning depending on the
collision risk levels. Braking assist or
steering assist (if equipped) will be applied depending on the collision risk.
- If ‘Warning Only’ is selected, Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist will warn
the driver with a warning message,
an audible warning depending on
the collision risk levels. Braking and
steering (if equipped) will not be
assisted. The driver must apply the
brake pedal or steer the vehicle if
necessary.

Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist disabled
OTM070093N
When the front windshield where the
front view camera is located, front radar
cover, bumper or sensor is covered with
foreign material, such as snow or rain, it
can reduce the detecting performance
and temporarily limit or disable Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist.
If this occurs the ‘Forward Safety system
disabled. Camera obscured’ or the
‘Forward Safety system disabled. Radar
blocked’ warning message, and the

and warning lights will illuminate on
the cluster.
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist will
operate normally when snow, rain or
foreign material is removed.
If Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
does not operate normally after
obstruction (snow, rain, or foreign
material) is removed, we recommend
that the function be inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
warning
• even though the warning message or
warning light does not appear on the
cluster, Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist may not properly operate.
• Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
may not properly operate in an
area (e.g. open terrain), where any
substance are not detected after
turning ON the vehicle. Limitations of Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist may
not operate normally, or it may operate
unexpectedly under the following
circumstances: •
The detecting sensor or the
surroundings are contaminated or damaged
• The temperature around the front
view camera is high or low due to
surrounding environment

warning
• Driving on a curve
OADAS014
OADAS016OADAS018
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
may not detect other vehicles,
pedestrians or cyclists in front of you
on curved roads adversely affecting
the performance of the sensors. This
may result in no warning, braking
assist or steering assist (if equipped)
when necessary.
When driving on a curve, you must
maintain a safe braking distance,
and if necessary, steer the vehicle
and depress the brake pedal to
reduce your driving speed in order to
maintain a safe distance.

OADAS015
OADAS017OADAS019
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
may detect a vehicle, pedestrian or
cyclist in the next lane or outside the
lane when driving on a curved road.
If this occurs, Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist may unnecessarily
warn the driver and control the brake
or steering wheel (if equipped).
Always check the traffic conditions
around the vehicle. •
Driving on a slope
OADAS012
OADAS010OADAS011
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
may not detect other vehicles,
pedestrians or cyclists in front of
you while driving uphill or downhill,
adversely affecting the performance
of the sensors.
This may result in unnecessary
warning, braking assist or steering
assist (if equipped) or no warning,
braking assist or steering assist (if
equipped) when necessary.
Also, vehicle speed may rapidly
decrease when a vehicle, pedestrian
or cyclist ahead is suddenly
detected.
Always have your eyes on the road
while driving uphill or downhill and
if necessary, steer your vehicle and
depress the brake pedal to reduce
your driving speed in order to
maintain a safe distance.

Changing lanes
OADAS030
[A] : Your vehicle, [B] : Lane changing vehicle
When a vehicle moves into your lane
from an adjacent lane, it cannot
be detected by the sensor until it
is in the sensor's detection range.
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
may not immediately detect the
vehicle when the vehicle changes
lanes abruptly. In this case, you must
maintain a safe braking distance,
and if necessary, steer your vehicle
and depress the brake pedal to
reduce your driving speed in order to
maintain a safe distance.
OADAS031
[A] : Your vehicle, [B] : Lane changing vehicle,
[C] : Same lane vehicle
When a vehicle in front of you
merges out of the lane, Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist may not
immediately detect the vehicle that
is now in front of you. In this case,
you must maintain a safe braking
distance, and if necessary, steer your
vehicle and depress the brake pedal
to reduce your driving speed in order
to maintain a safe distance.

Lane Keeping Assist is designed to help
detect lane markings (or road edges)
while driving over a certain speed. Lane
Keeping Assist will warn the driver if the
vehicle leaves the lane without using the
turn signal, or will automatically assist
the driver’s steering to help prevent the
vehicle from departing the lane.
