• Driving on a curve
The performance of Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist system may be
limited when driving on a curved road.
The front view camera or radar sensor
recognition system may not detect the
vehicle, pedestrian or cyclist traveling
in front on a curved road. This may
result in no alarm and braking when
necessary.
Always pay attention to road and
driving conditions, and if necessary,
depress the brake pedal to reduce
your driving speed in order to
maintain a safe distance.

• Driving on a slope
The performance of Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist system may be
decreased while driving upward or
downward on a slope.
The front view camera or front radar
sensor recognition may not detect the
vehicle, pedestrian or cyclist in front.
This may result in unnecessary alarm
and braking or no alarm and braking
when necessary.
When the system suddenly recognizes
the vehicle, pedestrian or cyclist in
front while passing over a slope, you
may experience sharp deceleration.
Always keep your eyes forward while
driving upward or downward on a
slope, and, if necessary, depress the
brake pedal to reduce your driving
speed in order to maintain distance.

•
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

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.

WARNING
FCA-Junction Turning function
only activates for vehicles except
pedestrians, two wheel vehicles,
animals or obstacles.
WARNING
FCA 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
FCA-Junction Turning function operates
in accordance with the collision risk
levels based on certain parameters
such as the condition, driving direction
and speed of the approaching vehicle.
Never deliberately drive dangerously to
activate the system. Limitations of the system
FCA-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.

•
Do not place objects on the
dashboard that reflects light such as
mirrors, white paper, etc. This may
prevent LKA system from functioning
properly.
• Always have your hands on the
steering wheel while LKA system is
activated. If you continue to drive
with your hands off the steering
wheel after the “Keep hands on
steering wheel” warning message
appears, the system will stop
controlling the steering wheel.
• The steering wheel is not
continuously controlled so if the
vehicle speed is at a higher rate
when leaving a lane the vehicle may
not be controlled by the system. The
driver must always follow the speed
limit when using the system.
• If you attach objects to the steering
wheel, the system may not assist
steering or the hands off alarm may
not work properly.
LKA Operation
ODN8069059
To activate/deactivate LKA system:
With the ignition switch in the ON
position, press LKA system 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
64 km/h (40 mph) 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 64
km/h (40 mph).
- 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 LKA button again, the
indicator on the cluster goes off.

System Description
Blind-Spot Collision Warning
Blind-Spot Collision Warning system uses
rear corner radar sensors to help monitor
and warn the driver of an approaching
vehicle in the driver’s blind spot area.
(1) Blind-spot vehicle warning
OIK057138
BCW system helps detect and warn of
vehicles in the blind-spot area.
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.

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.
