ODN8A069024
Lane Keeping Assist system detect lane
markers on the road with a camera at
the front windshield, and assists the
driver’s steering to help keep the vehicle
between lanes.
When the system detects the vehicle
straying from its lane, it alerts the driver
with a visual and audible warning, while
applying a counter-steering torque,
trying to help prevent the vehicle from
moving out of its lane.
WARNING
Lane Keeping Assist system is not a
substitute for safe driving practices, but
a convenience function only. It is the
responsibility of the driver to always be
aware of the surroundings and steer the
vehicle.
WARNING
Take the following precautions when
using Lane Keeping Assist system: • Do not turn the steering wheel
suddenly when the steering wheel is
being assisted by the system.
• LKA system helps to prevent the
driver from moving out of the lane
(or road) unintentionally by assisting
the driver’s steering. However, the
driver should not solely rely on the
system but always pay attention on
the steering wheel to stay in the lane.
• The operation of LKA system can
be cancelled or not work properly
according to road condition and
surroundings. Always be cautious when driving.
• Do not disassemble LKA system
camera temporarily to tint the
window or attach any types of
coatings and accessories. If you
disassemble the camera and
assemble it again, have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer and have the system checked
for calibration.
• When you replace the windshield
glass, LKA system camera or related
parts of the steering wheel, have the
vehicle inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer and have the system
checked for calibration.
• The system detects lane markers
and controls the steering wheel
by a camera, therefore, if the lane
markers are hard to detect, the
system may not work properly.
Please refer to “Limitations of the
S y s t e m ”.
• Do not remove or damage the related
parts of LKA system.
• You may not hear a warning sound
of LKA system if the audio volume is high.

•
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.

LKA System Function Change
The driver can change LKA to
Lane Departure Warning or Lane
Keeping Assist from the LCD display
or infotainment system display(if
equipped). Go to the ‘User Settings →
Driver Assistance → Lane Safety → Lane
Keeping Assist/Lane Departure Warning/
Off'. The system is automatically set to
Lane Keeping Assist if a function is not changed.
Lane Keeping Assist
The LKA mode guides the driver to help
keep the vehicle within the lanes. It
rarely controls the steering wheel, when
the vehicle drives well inside the lanes.
However, it starts to control the steering
wheel, when the vehicle is about to
deviate out of the lanes.
Lane Departure Warning
LDW alerts the driver with a visual
warning and a warning alarm when the
system detects the vehicle departing
the lane. The steering wheel will not be
controlled.LKA system operation

• If vehicle speed is over 64 km/h (40
mph) and the system detects lane
markers, the color changes from gray
to white.
• If your vehicle speed exceeds 64 km/h
(40 mph) and LKA system button is

1. A visual warning appears on the cluster LCD display. Either the left
lane marker or the right lane marker
in the cluster LCD display will blink
depending on which direction the
vehicle is veering.
2. LKA system will help control the vehicle’s steering to prevent the
vehicle from crossing the lane maker
in below conditions.
- Vehicle speed is over 64 km/h (40 mph)
- The system detects both lane markers
- When driving, the vehicle is located between both lanes normally.
- The steering wheel is not turned suddenly.
When lanes are detected and all the
conditions to activate LKA system are
satisfied, LKA system indicator light (
) will change from white to green.
This indicates that LKA system is in the
ENABLED state and the steering wheel
will be controlled.

Keep hands on steering wheel
If the driver takes their hands off the
steering wheel for several seconds while
LKA system is activated, the system will
warn the driver.
Information
If the steering wheel is held very lightly
the message may still appear because LKA
system may not recognize that the driver
has their hands on the wheel.
WARNING
The warning message may appear
late according to road conditions.
Therefore, always have your hands on
the steering wheel while driving.

WARNING
• The warning light on the side view
mirror will illuminate whenever a
vehicle is detected at the rear side by
the system.
To help avoid accidents, do not focus
only on the warning light and neglect
to see the surrounding of the vehicle.
• Drive safely even though the
vehicle is equipped with Blind-Spot
Collision-Avoidance Assist system.
Do not solely rely on the system
but check your surrounding before changing lanes or backing the
vehicle up.
• The system may not alert the driver
in some conditions so always check
your surroundings while driving.
CAUTION
• The driver should always use
extreme caution while operating
the vehicle, whether or not the
warning light on the side view mirror
illuminates or there is a warning alarm.
• Playing the vehicle audio system at
high volume may offset the Blind-
Spot Collision Warning system
warning sounds.
• The warning of Blind-Spot Collision-
Avoidance Assist system may not
sound while other system’s warning sounds. Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance
Assist
Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist
system may apply braking power, when
an approaching vehicle is detected
within a certain distance next to or
behind your vehicle.
It gently applies braking power on the
wheel, which is located in the opposite
side of the possibly-colliding point. The
instrument cluster will inform the driver
of the system activation.
Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist
system is automatically deactivated when:
- The vehicle drives a certain distance away
- The vehicle direction is changed against the possible-colliding point
- The steering wheel is abruptly moved
- The brake pedal is depressed
- After a certain period of time
The driver should drive the vehicle in the
middle of the vehicle lanes to keep the
system in the ready status.
When the vehicle drives too close to one
side of the vehicle lanes, the system may
not properly operate.
In addition, the system may not properly
control your vehicle in accordance with
driving situations. Thus, always pay close
attention to road situations.

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.
