- 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 impaired
mobility
The radar sensor or camera is
blocked with a foreign object or
debris
The camera lens is contaminated
due to tinted, filmed or coated
windshield, damaged glass, or
stuck of foreign matter (sticker,
bug, etc.) on the glass
The brightness outside is too low
such as when the headlamps are
not on at night or the vehicle is
going through a tunnel
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 windshield glass is fogged up;
a clear view of the road is obstruct-
ed

(FCA) system when towing a
vehicle. Application of the
FCA system while towing may
adversely affect the safety of
your vehicle or the towing
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.
Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist system may operate
when an object, which has
similar shape or characteris-
tic to a vehicle or pedestrian,
is detected.
The FCA system is designed
to help detect and monitor the
vehicle ahead or help 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.
Never try to test the operation
of the FCA system. Doing so
may cause severe injury or
death.

The Lane Keeping Assist (LKA) sys-
tem detects lane markers on the
road using a forward facing front
camera located on the top center of
the windshield. The LKA system
assists the driver's steering to help
keep the vehicle between the lane
markers.
When the system detects the vehicle
straying from its lane, it alerts the
driver with a visual and audible warn-
ing, while applying a counter-steer-
ing torque, to try to prevent the vehi-
cle from moving out of its lane.

The Lane Keeping Assist (LKA)
system is not a substitute for
safe driving practices. It is the
responsibility of the driver to
always be aware of the sur-
rounding 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 canceled 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,
take your vehicle to an author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer and
have the system checked for
calibration.
When you replace the wind-
shield glass, LKA system
camera or related parts of the
steering wheel, take your
vehicle to an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer and have the
system checked for calibra-
tion.

5-88
Driving your vehicle
Always have your hands on
the steering wheel while the
LKA system is activated. Also,
when Active LKA is selected
from the User Settings mode
and if you continue to drive
with your hands off the steer-
ing wheel after the "Keep
hands on steering wheel"
warning message appears,
the system will stop control-
ling the steering wheel.
However, if the driver has their
hands on the steering wheel
again, the system will start
controlling the steering
wheel.
The steering wheel is not con-
tinuously controlled so if the
vehicle speed is at a higher
speed when leaving a lane the
vehicle may not be able to 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 trail-
er, make sure that you turn off
the LKA system.
When you tow a trailer, make
sure that you turn off the LKA
system.
The system detects lane lines
and controls the steering
wheel by a camera, therefore,
if the lane lines 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.
If any other warning sound
such as seat belt warning
chime is already generated,
the Lane Keeping Assist
(LKA) system warning may
not 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.

LKA System Operation
To activate/deactivate the LKA sys-
tem:
With the ignition switch in the ON
position, press the LKA system
switch 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 the LKA system
is in the READY but NOT ENABLED
state.
If you press the LKA button again,
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 indicator in the
cluster display will illuminate green.
The color of indicator will change
depending on the condition of LKA
system.
- White :Sensor does not detect
lane markers or vehicle
speed is under 40 mph (64
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
switch again, the indicator on the clus-
ter goes off.
LKA system activation
To see the LKA system screen on
the LCD display in the cluster,
select Assist mode ( ).For more
details, 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.
Both lane markers must be detect-
ed for the system to fully activate. If your vehicle departs from the
projected lane in front of you, the
LKA system 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. The Lane Keeping Assist (LKA)
system is a system to help pre-
vent the driver from leaving the
lane. However, the driver should
not solely rely on the system
but always check the road con-
ditions when driving.

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 locat-
ed between both lanes normally.
- 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 while 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 rec-
ognize that the driver has their hands
on the wheel.
i
The warning message may
appear late according to road
conditions. Therefore, always
have your hands on the steering
wheel while driving.

denly.
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 lane
marker 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.

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