Take the following precautions
when using the Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist
(FCA) system:
This system is only a supple-
mental system and it is not
intended to, nor does it
replace the need for extreme
care and attention of the driv-
er. The sensing range and
objects detectable by the sen-
sors are limited. Pay attention
to the road conditions at all
times.
NEVER drive too fast in accor-
dance with the road condi-
tions or while cornering.
Always drive cautiously to
prevent unexpected and sud-
den situations from occur-
ring. The Forward Collision-
Avoidance system may not
always stop the vehicle com-
pletely and is only intended to
help mitigate a collision that
is imminent.
WARNING
ODH048541N

5-66
Driving your vehicle
The warning light illumi-
nates on the LCD display,
when you cancel the FCA
system. The driver can
monitor the FCA ON/OFF status on
the LCD display. Also, the warning
light illuminates when the ESC
(Electronic Stability Control) is
turned off (Traction & Stability control
disabled).
If the warning light remains ON when
the FCA is activated, have the sys-
tem checked by an authorized retail-
er of Genesis Branded products.
The driver can select the initial warn-
ing activation time in the User
Settings in the LCD display.
Go to the 'User Settings →Driver
Assistance →Forward Collision
Warning →Early/Normal/Late'.The options for the initial Forward
Collision Warning includes the fol-
lowing:
Early:
When this condition is selected,
the initial Forward Collision
Warning is activated earlier than
normal. This setting maximizes the
amount of distance between the
vehicle or pedestrian ahead before
the initial warning occurs.
Normal:
When this condition is selected,
the initial Forward Collision
Warning is activated normally. This
setting allows for a nominal
amount of distance between the
vehicle or pedestrian ahead before
the initial warning occurs.
Late:
When this condition is selected,
the initial Forward Collision
Warning is activated later than nor-
mal.
This setting reduces the amount of
distance between the vehicle or
pedestrian ahead before the initial
warning occurs.

Prerequisite for activation
The FCA gets ready to be activated,
when the FCA is selected on the
LCD display, and when the following
prerequisites are satisfied.
- The ESC (Electronic Stability
Control ) is on.
- To enable the system to detect
pedestrians ahead, the vehicle
driving speed must be between 5
mph – 45 mph (8 km/h – 70 km/h).
- To enable the system to detect a
vehicle ahead, the vehicle driving
speed must be between 5 mph –
110 mph (8 km/h – 180 km/h).
When traveling above 50 mph (80
km/h), the FCA system only initiates
partial braking. This is to prevent
unintended full braking to stop in the
middle of the highway.
FCA warning message and
system control
The FCA produces warning mes-
sages and warning alarms in accor-
dance with the collision risk levels,
such as abrupt stopping of the vehi-
cle in front, insufficient braking dis-
tance, or pedestrian detection. Also,
it controls the brakes in accordance
with the collision risk levels.Completely stop the vehicle
on a safe location before
operating the switch on the
steering wheel to activate/
deactivate the FCA system.
The FCA automatically acti-
vates upon placing the Engine
Start/Stop button to the ON
position. The driver can deac-
tivate the FCA by canceling
the system setting on the LCD
display.
The FCA automatically deacti-
vates upon canceling the ESC
(Electronic Stability Control).
When the ESC is canceled,
the FCA cannot be activated
on the LCD display.

Brake operation
In an urgent situation, the braking
system enters into the ready status
for prompt reaction against the dri-
ver’s depressing the brake pedal.
The FCA provides additional brak-
ing power for optimum braking per-
formance, when the driver
depresses the brake pedal.
The braking control is automatical-
ly deactivated, when the driver
sharply depresses the accelerator,
or when the driver abruptly oper-
ates the steering wheel.
The FCA brake control is automat-
ically canceled, when risk factors
disappear.The driver should always use
extreme caution while operating
the vehicle, whether or not there
is a warning message or alarm
from the FCA system.CAUTION
The 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
The FCA system logic operates
within certain parameters, such
as the distance from the vehicle
or pedestrian ahead, the speed
of the vehicle ahead, and the
driver's vehicle speed. Certain
conditions such as inclement
weather and road conditions
may affect the operation of the
FCA system.
WARNING
Never deliberately drive danger-
ously to activate the system.
WARNING

FCA sensor
In order for the FCA system to oper-
ate properly, always make sure the
radar sensor cover is clean and free
of dirt, snow, and debris. Dirt, snow,
or foreign substances on the lens
may adversely affect the sensing
performance of the radar.

Radar blocked
When the sensor cover is blocked
with dirt, snow, or debris, the FCA
system operation may stop tem-
porarily. If this occurs, a warning
message will appear on the LCD dis-
play.
Remove any dirt, snow, or debris and
clean the radar sensor cover before
operating the FCA system.
The FCA may not properly operate in
an area (e.g. open terrain), where
any substances are not detected
after turning ON the engine.
Driving your vehicle

Do not apply foreign objects
such as a bumper sticker or a
bumper guard near the radar
sensor. Doing so may
adversely affect the sensing
performance of the radar.
Always keep the radar sensor
and cover clean and free of
dirt and debris.
Use only a soft cloth to wash
the vehicle. Do not spray pres-
surized water directly on the
sensor or sensor cover.
Be careful not to apply unnec-
essary force on the radar sen-
sor or sensor cover. If the sen-
sor is forcibly moved out of
proper alignment, the FCA
system may not operate cor-
rectly. In this case, a warning
message may not be dis-
played. Have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized
retailer of Genesis Branded
products.

tem may not operate properly.
We recommend you to have
the vehicle inspected by an
authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products.
Use only Genesis/Hyundai
Part to repair or replace a
damaged sensor or sensor
cover. Do not apply paint to
the sensor cover.
The FCA is only a supplemen-
tal system for the driver's con-
venience. The driver should
hold the responsibility to con-
trol the vehicle operation. Do
not solely depend on the FCA
system. Rather, maintain a
safe braking distance, and, if
necessary, depress the brake
pedal to reduce the driving
speed.
In certain instances and
under certain driving condi-
tions, the FCA system may
activate prematurely. This ini-
tial warning message appears
on the LCD display with a
warning chime.
Also, in certain instances the
front radar sensor or camera
recognition system may not
detect the vehicle or pedestri-
an ahead. The FCA system
may not activate and the
warning message will not be
displayed.

Limitations of the system
The Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist (FCA) System is designed to
monitor the vehicle ahead or a
pedestrian in the roadway through
radar signals and camera recogni-
tion to warn the driver that a collision
is imminent, and if necessary, apply
emergency braking.
In certain situations, the radar sen-
sor or the camera may not be able to
detect the vehicle or pedestrian
ahead. In these cases, the FCA sys-
tem may not operate normally. The
driver must pay careful attention in
the following situations where the
FCA operation may be limited.
Driving your vehicle
(Continued)
If there is a malfunction with
the FCA system, the Forward
Collision-Avoidance assist
system is not applied even
though the braking system is
operating normally.
If the vehicle in front stops
suddenly, you may have less
control of the brake system.
Therefore, always keep a safe
distance between your vehicle
and the vehicle in front of you.
The FCA system may activate
during braking and the vehi-
cle may stop suddenly shift-
ing loose objects toward the
passengers. Always keep
loose objects secured.
The FCA system may not acti-
vate if the driver applies the
brake pedal to avoid a colli-
sion.
The FCA system operates
only to detect vehicles or
pedestrians in front of the
vehicle.
The FCA system does not
operate when the vehicle is in
reverse.
The FCA system is not
designed to detect other
objects on the road such as
animals.
The FCA system does not
detect cross traffic vehicles
that are approaching.
The FCA system cannot
detect the driver approaching
the side view of a parked vehi-
cle (for example on a dead
end street.)
In these cases, you must main-
tain a safe braking distance,
and if necessary depress the
brake pedal to reduce the driv-
ing speed in order to maintain a
safe distance.
