Vehicle detection
• To warn the driver a vehicle is de
tected, the warning light on the
side view mirror and head-up display
(if equipped) will illuminate.
• Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist will operate when your vehicle speed
is above 12 mph (20 km/h) and the
speed of the vehicle in the blind spot
area is above 7 mph (10 km/h).
Collision Warning
• Collision Warning will operate when the turn signal is turned on in the
dir
ection of the detected vehicle.
• If ‘Warning Only’ is selected from the Settings menu, the collision warning
will operate when your vehicle
approaches the lane the blind spot
vehicle is detected.
• To warn the driver of a collision, the warning light on the side view mirror
and head-up display (if equipped) will
blink. At the same time, an audible
warning will sound.
• When the turn signal is turned off or you move away from the lane, the
collision warning will be canceled and
Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist
will return to vehicle detection state.
WARNING
• The detecting range of the rear
corner radar is determined by a
standard road width, therefore, on
a narrow road, Blind-Spot Collision-
Avoidance Assist may detect other
vehicles in the next next lane and
warn you. In contrast, on a wide
road, Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance
Assist may not be able to detect a
vehicle driving in the next lane and
may not warn you.
• When the hazard warning flasher is
on, the collision warning by the turn
signal will not operate.
Information
• If the driver's seat is on the left side, the
collision warning may occur when you
turn left. Maintain a proper distance
with the vehicles in the left lane. If the
driver’s seat is on the right side, the
collision warning may occur when you
turn right. Maintain a proper distance
with the vehicles in the right lane.
• The images and colors in the
instrument cluster may differ
depending on the cluster type or theme
selected from the instrument cluster.

WARNING
Take the following precautions when
using Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance
Assist :
• For your safety, only change the
Settings after parking the vehicle at a
safe location.
• If any other system’s warning
message is displayed or audible
warning is generated, Blind-Spot
Collision-Avoidance Assist warning
message may not be displayed

of Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance
Assist if the surroundings are noisy.
• Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance
Assist may not operate if the driver
applies the brake pedal to avoid
collision.
• When Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance
Assist is operating, braking control
by the function will automatically
cancel when the driver excessively
depresses the accelerator pedal or

• During Blind-Spot Collision-
Avoidance Assist operation, the
vehicle may stop suddenly injuring
passengers and shifting loose
objects. Always have the seat belt on
and keep loose objects secured.
• Even if there is a problem with Blind-
Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist, the
vehicle’s basic braking performance
will operate normally.

If this occurs, the ‘Blind-Spot Safety
system disabled. Radar blocked’ warning
message will appear on the cluster.
Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist
will operate normally when such foreign
material or trailer, etc. is removed, and
then the engine is restarted.
If Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist
does not operate normally after it is
removed, have the vehicle inspected by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
WARNING
• Even though the warning message
does not appear on the cluster, Blind-
Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist may
not properly operate.
• Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist
may not properly operate in an area
(for example, open terrain) where
any substance are not detected right
after the engine is turned on, or
when the detecting sensor is blocked
with foreign material right after the
engine is turned on.
