front view camera is located or the
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.

message, and the
and warning
lights will illuminate on the cluster.
Forward Collsion-Avoidance Assist will
operate normally when such snow, rain
or foreign material is removed.
If Forward Collsion-Avoidance Assist
does not operate normally after
obstruction (snow, rain, or foreign
material) is removed, function is
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
(for example, open terrain), where
any substance are not detected after
turning ON the engine.
Limitations of Forward Collsion-
Avoidance Assist
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist may
not operate normally, or the function
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

[ The camera lens is contaminated due
to tinted, filmed or coated windshield,
damaged glass, or stuck of foreign
material (sticker, bug, etc.) on the
glass

[ Moisture is not removed or frozen on
the windshield

[ Washer fluid is continuously sprayed,
or the wiper is on

[ Driving in heavy rain or snow, or thick
fog

[ The field of view of the front view
camera is obstructed by sun glare

[ Street light or light from an oncoming
vehicle is reflected on the wet road
surface, such as a puddle on the road

[ An object is placed on the dashboard

[ Your vehicle is being towed

[ The surrounding is very bright

[ The surrounding is very dark, such as
in a tunnel, etc.

[ The brightness changes suddenly, for
example when entering or exiting a
tunnel

[ The brightness outside is low, and the
headlamps are not on or are not bright

Driver assistance system7-10

[ There is a group of pedestrians or a
large crowd in front

[ The pedestrian is wearing clothing
that easily blends into the
background, making it difficult to
detect

[ The pedestrian is difficult to
distinguish from the similar shaped
structure in the surroundings

[ You are driving by a pedestrian,
traffic sign, structure, etc., near the
intersection

[ Driving in a parking lot

[ Driving through a tollgate,
construction area, unpaved road,
partial paved road, uneven road,
speed bumps, etc.

[ Driving on an incline road, curved
road, etc.

[ Driving through a roadside with trees
or streetlights

[ The adverse road conditions cause
excessive vehicle vibrations while
driving

[ Your vehicle height is low or high
due to heavy loads, abnormal tire
pressure, etc.

[ Driving through a narrow road where
trees or grass or overgrown

[ There is interference by
electromagnetic waves such as
driving in an area with strong radio
waves or electrical noise WARNING

[Driving on a curved road
OADAS003OADAS002
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
may not detect other vehicles
or pedestrians in front of you on
curved roads adversely affecting the
performance of the sensors. This may
result in no warning or braking assist
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.

OADAS006OADAS005
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
may detect a vehicle or pedestrian
in the next lane or outside the lane
when driving on a curved road.
If this occurs, Forward Collsion-
Avoidance Assist may unnecessarily
warn the driver and control the
brake. Always check the traffic
conditions around the vehicle.

Driving on sloped roadOADAS009
OADAS007
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
may not detect other vehicles or
pedestrians in front of you while
driving uphill or downhill adversely
affecting the performance of the
sensors.
This may result in unnecessary
warning or braking assist, or no
warning or braking assist when
necessary.
Also, vehicle speed may rapidly
decrease when a vehicle or
pedestrian ahead is suddenly
detected.
Always have your eyes on the road
while driving uphill or downhill and
if necessary, steer the vehicle and
depress the brake pedal to reduce
your driving speed in order to
maintain a safe distance.

[ Changing lanes
OADAS032[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 the vehicle
and depress the brake pedal to
reduce your driving speed in order to
maintain a safe distance.
OADAS033[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 the vehicle and depress the
brake pedal to reduce your driving
speed in order to maintain a safe
distance.

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, 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
(for example, white paper, mirror)
over the dashboard. Any light
reflection may prevent Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist from
functioning properly.

[ 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. The vehicle is
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.
