Driving your vehicle
If your vehicle departs from the projected lane in front of you, the
LKA operates as follows:
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.
Also, a warning sound will be
heard. 2. The LKA system will control the
vehicle's steering to prevent the
vehicle from crossing the lane
maker in below conditions.
- Vehicle speed is over 40 mph (64 km/h)
- The system detects both lane markers
- When driving, the vehicle is located between both lanes nor-
mally.
- The steering wheel is not turned suddenly.
When lanes are detected and all the
conditions to activate the LKA sys-
tem are satisfied, a LKA system indi-
cator 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.
Warning Light and Message
Keep hands on steering wheel
If the driver takes their hands off the
steering wheel for several seconds
while the LKA is activated, the sys-
tem 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 rec-
ognize that the driver has their hands
on the wheel.

Driver's grasp not detected.LKA system will be disabledtemporarily
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.
This warning message is available
when Active LKA is selected from the
User Settings mode.
Check Lane Keeping Assist(LKA) system
If there is a problem with the system
a message will appear for a few sec-
onds. If the problem continues the
LKA failure indicator will illuminate.
The warning message may
appear late according to road
conditions. Therefore, always
have your hands on the steering
wheel while driving.

Limitations of the System
The LKA system may operate pre-
maturely even if the vehicle does not
depart from the intended lane, OR,
the LKA system may not warn you if
the vehicle leaves the intended lane
under the following circumstances:
When the lane and road condi-
tions are poor
It is difficult to distinguish the lanemarker from the road because the
lane marker is covered with dust or
sand.
It is difficult to distinguish the color of the lane marker from the road.
There are markings on the road surface that look like a lane marker
that is inadvertently being detected
by the camera.
The lane marker is indistinct or damaged. The lane marker is merged or
divided. (e.g. tollgate)
The lane number increases or decreases or the lane marker are
crossing complicatedly.
There are more than two lane markers on the road in front of you.
The lane marker is very thick or thin.
The lane marker ahead is not visi- ble due to rain, snow, water on the
road, damaged or stained road
surface, or other factors.
The shadow is on the lane marker by a median strip, trees, guardrail,
noise barriers, etc.
The lane markers are complicated or a structure substitutes for the
lines such as a construction area.
There are crosswalk signs or other symbols on the road.
The lane marker in a tunnel is stained with oil, etc.
The lane suddenly disappears such as at the intersection. When external condition is inter-
vened
The brightness outside changes
suddenly such as when entering or
exiting a tunnel, or when passing
under a bridge.
The brightness outside is too low such as when the headlamps are
not on at night or the vehicle is
going through a tunnel.
There is a boundary structure in the roadway such as a concrete
barrier, guardrail and reflector post
that is inadvertently being detected
by the 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.
There is not enough distance between you and the vehicle in
front to be able to detect the lane
marker or the vehicle ahead is driv-
ing on the lane marker.

Driving your vehicle
Driving on a steep grade, over a hill, or when driving on a curved road.
The adverse road conditions cause excessive vehicle vibrations while
driving.
The surrounding of the inside rear view mirror temperature is high
due to direct sunlight, etc.
When front visibility is poor
The windshield or the camera lens is blocked with dirt or debris.
The windshield glass is fogged up; a clear view of the road is obstructed.
Placing objects on the dashboard, etc.
The sensor cannot detect the lane because of fog, heavy rain or snow.
LKA Function Change
The driver can change LKA to Lane
Departure Warning from the LCD dis-
play. Go to the 'User Settings →
Driver Assistance → Lane Safety →
Lane Departure Warning/LKA/Active
LKA.
Lane Departure Warning
LDW mode 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
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 con-
trol the steering wheel, when the
vehicle is about to deviate out of the
lanes.
Active LKA
Active LKA mode provides more fre-
quent steering wheel control in com-
parison with the Standard LKA
mode. Active LKA can reduce the dri-
ver’s fatigue to assist the steering for
maintaining the vehicle in the middle
of the lane.

Driving your vehicleThe Driver Attention Warning sys-
tem utilizes the camera sensor on
the front windshield for its opera-
tion. To keep the camera sensor in
the best condition, you should
observe the followings:
Do not disassemble the cameratemporarily to tint the window or
to attach any types of coatings
and accessories. If you disas-
semble a camera and assemble
it again, take your vehicle to an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer and
have the system checked for cal-
ibration.
NEVER locate any reflective objects (i.e. white paper, mirror)
over the dashboard. Any light
reflection may cause a malfunc-
tion of the Driver Attention Alert
(DAW) system.
Pay extreme caution to keep the camera sensor out of water.
NEVER arbitrarily disassemble the camera assembly, nor apply
any impact on the camera
assembly.
NOTICE
The Driver Attention Warning
(DAW) system is not a substi-
tute for safe driving practices,
but a convenience function
only. It is the responsibility of
the driver to always drive cau-
tiously to prevent unexpected
and sudden situations from
occurring. Pay attention to the
road conditions at all times.
The system may suggest a
break according to the dri-
ver's driving pattern or habits
even if the driver doesn't feel
fatigue.
The driver, who feels fatigued,
should take a break, even
though there is no break sug-
gestion by the Driver Attention
Warning (DAW) system.
WARNING
The Driver Attention Warning
(DAW) system may not properly
operate with limited alerting in
the following situations:
The lane detection perform-
ance is limited. (For more infor-
mation, refer to "Lane Keeping
Assist (LKA) system" in this
chapter.)
The vehicle is driven erratical-
ly or is abruptly turned for
obstacle avoidance (e.g. con-
struction area, other vehicles,
fallen objects, bumpy road).
Forward drivability of the vehi-
cle is severely undermined
(possibly due to wide variation
in tire pressures, uneven tire
wear-out, toe-in/toe-out align-
ment).
The vehicle drives on a curvy
road.
The vehicle drives on a bumpy
road.
