Driving your vehicle
• The driver's field of view is not well illuminated (either too dark or too
much reflection or too much back-
light that obscures the field of view)
• The vehicle in front does not have their rear lights properly turned ON.
• The outside brightness changes suddenly, for example when enter-
ing or exiting a tunnel
• When light coming from a street light or an oncoming vehicle is
reflected on a wet road surface
such as a puddle in the road
• The field of view in front is obstruct- ed by sun glare
• The windscreen glass is fogged up; a clear view of the road is obstruct-
ed
• The vehicle in front is driving errati- cally
• The vehicle is on unpaved or uneven rough surfaces, or road
with sudden gradient changes.
• The vehicle is driven near areas containing metal substances as a
construction zone, railroad, etc. • The vehicle drives inside a building,
such as a basement parking lot
• The adverse road conditions cause excessive vehicle vibrations whilst
driving
• The sensor recognition changes suddenly when passing over a
speed bump
• The vehicle in front is moving verti- cally to the driving direction
• The vehicle in front is stopped ver- tically
• The vehicle in front is driving towards your vehicle or reversing
• You are on roundabouts and the vehicle in front circles - Driving on a curve
The performance of the FCA system
may be limited when driving on a
curved road.
On curved roads, the other vehicle
on the same lane is not recognised
and the FCA system's performance
may be degraded. This may result in
unnecessary alarm or braking or no
alarm or braking when necessary.
Also, in certain instances the front
radar sensor or camera recognition
system may not detect the vehicle
travelling on a curved road.
In these cases, the driver must main-
tain a safe braking distance, and if
necessary, depress the brake pedal
to reduce your driving speed in order
to maintain a safe distance.

The FCA system may recognise a
vehicle in the next lane when driving
on a curved road.
In this case, the system may unnec-
essarily alarm the driver and apply
the brake.
Always pay attention to road and
driving conditions, whilst driving. If
necessary, depress the brake pedal
to reduce your driving speed in order
to maintain a safe distance.
Also, when necessary depress the
accelerator pedal to prevent the sys-
tem from unnecessarily decelerating
your vehicle.
Check to be sure that the road con-
ditions permit safe operation of FCA.- Driving on a slope
The performance of the FCA decreas-
es whilst driving upward or downward
on a slope, not recognising the vehi-
cle in front in the same lane. It may
unnecessarily produce the warning
message and the warning alarm, or it
may not produce the warning mes-
sage and the warning alarm at all.
When the FCA suddenly recognises
the vehicle in front whilst passing
over a slope, you may experience
sharp deceleration.
Always keep your eyes forward whilst
driving upward or downward on a
slope, and, if necessary, depress the
brake pedal to reduce your driving
speed in order to maintain distance.- Changing lanes
When a vehicle changes lanes in
front of you, the FCA system may not
immediately detect the vehicle, espe-
cially if the vehicle changes lanes
abruptly. In this case, you must main-
tain a safe braking distance, and if
necessary, depress the brake pedal
to reduce your driving speed in order
to maintain a safe distance.

5-74
Driving your vehicle
When driving in stop-and-go traffic,
and a stopped vehicle in front of you
merges out of the lane, the FCA sys-
tem may not immediately detect the
new vehicle that is now in front of
you. In this case, you must maintain
a safe braking distance, and if nec-
essary, depress the brake pedal to
reduce your driving speed in order to
maintain a safe distance. - Detecting the vehicle in front of you
If 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, addi-
tional special attention is required.
The FCA system may not be able to
detect the cargo extending from the
vehicle. In these instances, you must
maintain a safe braking distance
from the rearmost object, and if nec-
essary, depress the brake pedal to
reduce your driving speed in order to
maintain distance.
Detecting pedestrians
The sensor may be limited when:
• The pedestrian 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 is moving very quickly or appears abruptly in the
camera detection area
• The pedestrian is wearing clothing that easily blends into the back-
ground, making it difficult to be
detected by the camera recogni-
tion 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 distin- guish the pedestrian from other
objects in the surroundings, for
example, when there is a group of
pedestrians or a large crowd
• There is an item similar to a per- son's body structure
• The pedestrian is small

• The pedestrian has impairedmobility
• The sensor recognition is limited
• The radar sensor or camera is blocked with a foreign object or
debris
• Inclement weather such as heavy rain or snow obscures the field of
view of the radar sensor or camera
• When light coming from a street light or an oncoming vehicle is
reflected on a wet road surface
such as a puddle in the road
• The field of view in front is obstructed by sun glare
• The windscreen glass is fogged up; a clear view of the road is
obstructed
• The adverse road conditions cause excessive vehicle vibrations whilst
driving
Information
In some instances, the FCA system
may be cancelled when subjected to
electromagnetic interference.
i
•Never try to test the operation
of the FCA system. Doing so
may cause severe injury or
death.
•If the front bumper, front
glass, radar or camera have
been replaced or repaired, we
recommend that you have
your vehicle inspected by a
HYUNDAI authorised repairer.
•Do not use the Forward
Collision avoidance Assist
(FCA) system when towing a
vehicle. Application of the
FCA system whilst towing
may adversely affect the safe-
ty of your vehicle or the tow-
ing 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.
•The FCA system is designed
to detect and monitor the
vehicle ahead or detect a
pedestrian in the roadway
through radar signals and
camera recognition. It is not
designed to detect bicycles,
motorcycles, or smaller
wheeled objects such as lug-
gage bags, shopping carts, or
strollers.

LANE KEEPING ASSIST (LKA) SYSTEM
The Lane Keeping Assist (LKA) sys-
tem with a camera at the front wind-
screen, helps detect lane markers on
the road, 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, whilst applying a slight counter-
steering torque, trying to prevent the
vehicle from moving out of its lane.
OOS057033
The Lane Keeping Assist (LKA)
system is not a substitute for safe
driving practices, but a conven-
ience function. It is the responsi-
bility of the driver to always be
aware of the surrounding and
steer the vehicle.
WARNING
Take the following precautions
when using the Lane Keeping
Assist (LKA) system:
•Do not steer the steering
wheel suddenly when the
steering wheel is being assist-
ed 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.
WARNING
•The operation of the LKA sys-
tem can be cancelled or not
work properly according to
road condition and surround-
ings. Always be cautious
when driving.
•Do not disassemble the LKA
system 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 a HYUNDAI
authorised repairer and have
the system checked for cali-
bration.
•When you replace the wind-
screen glass, LKA system
camera or related parts of the
steering wheel, we recom-
mend that you take your vehi-
cle to a HYUNDAI authorised
repairer and have the system
checked for calibration.

LKA operation
To activate/deactivate the LKA sys-
tem:
With the ignition switch in the ON
position, press the LKA system but-
ton located on the instrument panel
at the lower right hand side of the
driver.
The indicator in the cluster display
will initially illuminate white. This indi-
cates the LKA system is in the
READY but NOT ENABLED state.
•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 system".
•Do not remove or damage the
related parts of LKA system.
•You may not hear a warning
sound of LKA system
because of excessive audio
sound.
•Do not place objects on the
dashboard that reflects light
such as mirrors, white paper,
etc. The system may malfunc-
tion if the sunlight is reflected.
•Always have your hands on
the steering wheel whilst the
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 turn off automatically.
•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 the LKA
system.
OOS057034R

5-78
Driving your vehicle
Note that the vehicle speed must be
at least approximately 40 mph (60
km/h) to ENABLE the LKA system.
The indicator in the cluster display
will illuminate green. The colour of indicator
will change depending on
the condition of LKA sys-
tem.
- White : Sensor does not detect
lane markers or vehicle
speed is under 40mph (60
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.
LKAS activation
• To see the LKA system screen onthe LCD display in the cluster,
select ASSIST mode ( ).
For more details, refer to "LCD
Display Modes" in chapter 3.
• When both lane markers are detected and all the conditions to
activate the LKA system are satis-
fied, a green steering wheel indica-
tor will illuminate and the LKA sys-
tem indicator light will change from
white to green. This indicates that
the LKA system is in the
ENABLED state and the steering
wheel will be able to be controlled.

OOS057035AU
The Lane Keeping Assist (LKA)
system is a system to prevent
the driver from leaving the lane.
However, the driver should not
solely rely on the system but
always check the road condi-
tions when driving.

• If vehicle speed is over 40 mph (60km/h) and the system detects lane
markers, the colour changes from
gray to white.
• If the system detects the left lane marker, the left lane marker colour
will change from gray to white.
• If the system detects the right lane marker, the right lane marker colour
will change from gray to white.
• Both lane markers must be detect- ed for the system to fully activate.
• If your vehicle speed exceeds 40 mph (60 km/h) and the LKA system
button is ON, the system is enabled.
If your vehicle departs from the pro-
jected lane in front of you, the LKA
system operates as follows: 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.
If the steering wheel appears, the
system will control the vehicle’s
steering to prevent the vehicle from
crossing the lane marker.Keep hands on steering wheel
If the driver takes their hands off the
steering wheel for several seconds
whilst the 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 the LKA system may not
recognise that the driver has their
hands on the wheel.
