Lane Keeping Assist system helps
detect lane markers on the road with
a front view 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 warn-
ing, while applying a slight counter-
steering torque, trying to help pre-
vent the vehicle from moving out of
its lane.

Lane Keeping Assist system is
not a substitute for safe driving
practices, but a convenience
function only. It is the responsi-
bility 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 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.
(Continued)
WARNING
Page 344 of 635

Driving your vehicle
(Continued)
The system detects lane
markers and controls the
steering wheel by a front view
camera, therefore, if the lane
markers are hard to detect,
the system may not work
properly.
Please refer to "Limitations of
the System".
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.
When the lane markers are
hard to detect, please refer to
"Driver's Attention".
(Continued)
(Continued)
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 mes-
sage appears, the system will
stop controlling the steering
wheel.
The steering wheel is not con-
tinuously 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.
When you tow a trailer, make
sure that you turn off LKA
system.(Continued)
Do not disassemble LKA sys-
tem camera temporarily to
tint the window or attach any
types of coatings and acces-
sories. If you disassemble the
camera and assemble it again,
we recommend that you take
your vehicle to an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer and have the
system checked for calibra-
tion.
When you replace the wind-
shield glass, LKA system
camera or related parts of the
steering wheel, we recom-
mend that you take your vehi-
cle to an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer and have the system
checked for calibration.

LKA operation
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.If you press LKA button located on
the instrument panel on the lower left
hand side of the driver, LKA will be
turned off and the indicator on the
cluster display will go off.
Note that the vehicle
speed must be at least
approximately 40 mph
(64 km/h) to ENABLE the
LKA system. The indica-
tor in the cluster display
will illuminate green.
- White :Sensor does not detect
lane markers or vehicle
speed is under 35 mph (56
km/h).
- Green : Sensor detects lane mark-
ers 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 addi-
tional control. If you press the LKA
button again, the indicator on the
cluster goes off.
LKA system operation
To see the LKA screen on the LCD
display in the cluster, select Driving
Assist mode ( ). For more infor-
mation, refer to "LCD Display
Modes" in chapter 3.

Driving your vehicle
If vehicle speed is over 40 mph (64
km/h) and the system detects lane
markers, the color changes from
gray to white. If your vehicle speed exceeds 40
mph (64 km/h) and LKA system
button is ON, the system is
enabled. If your vehicle departs
from the projected lane in front of
you, LKA system operates as fol-
lows:
1. A visual warning appears on the
cluster LCD display. Either the left
lane marker or the right lane mark-
er 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
marker in below conditions.
- Vehicle speed is over 40 mph (64
km/h)
- The system detects both lane
markers
- When driving, the vehicle is locat-
ed 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, a LKA system indicator
light ( ) will change from white to
green. This indicates that LKA sys-
tem 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 light-
ly the message may still appear
because LKA system may not recog-
nize that the driver has their hands on
the wheel.
Driver's hands not detected. LKA
system is disabled temporarily
If the driver still does not have their
hands on the steering wheel after the
message "Keep hands on steering
wheel", the system will not control
the steering wheel and warn the driv-
er only when the driver crosses the
lane markers.
However, if the driver has their hands
on the steering wheel again, the sys-
tem will start controlling the steering
wheel.

• Even though the steering is assisted
by the system, the driver can still
steer to control the steering wheel.
• The steering wheel may feel heavier
or lighter when the steering wheel is
assisted by the system than when it
is not.

hill, or when driving on a curved
road.
The adverse road conditions cause
excessive vehicle vibrations while
driving.
