Limitation of the system
The FCA system is designed to mon-
itor the vehicle ahead or a pedestrian
on the roadway through radar signals
and camera recognition to warn the
driver that a collision is imminent,
and if necessary, apply emergency
braking. In certain situations, the
radar sensor or the camera may not
be able to detect the vehicle or
pedestrian ahead. In these cases,
the FCA system may not operate.
The driver must pay careful attention
in the following situations where the
FCA operation may be limited.
Recognizing vehicles
The sensor may be limited when:
- The radar or the camera is con-taminated with foreign substances.
- It heavily rains or snows.
- There is electromagnetic interfer- ence
- Something in the path of travel deflects the radar waves
- The vehicle in front has a narrow body. (i.e. motor cycle and bicycle)
- The driver's view is not clear due to backlight, reflected light, or dark-
ness
- The camera cannot contain the full image of the vehicle in front.
- The vehicle in front is a special vehicle, such as a heavily-loaded
truck or a trailer.
- The outside brightness is greatly changed, such as entering/exiting
a tunnel. - The vehicle driving is unstable.
- The radar/camera sensor recogni-
tion is limited.
- The vehicle in front is driving errat- ically
- The vehicle is driven near areas containing metal substances such
as a construction zone, railroad,
etc.
- Moisture on the windshield is not completely removed or frozen.
- The weather is misty.
- The vehicle in front does not turn ON the rear lights, does not have
rear lights, has asymmetric rear
lights, or has rear lights out of
angle.
- The vehicle is on unpaved or uneven rough surfaces, or roads
with sudden gradient changes.
- The vehicle is moving under ground level or inside a building.

- If a sudden change in the sensor
recognition takes place while driv-
ing over a speed bump,
- When the vehicle is severely shaken,
- When driving around a circular intersection with a vehicle or object
in front
- If the front of the camera lens is contaminated by front glass tinting,
film, water repellent coating, dam-
age on glass or foreign matter
(sticker, insect, etc.)
- The radar or camera or camera lens is damaged.
- If the headlights of the vehicle are not used at night or in a tunnel sec-
tion, or the light is too weak
- If street light or the light of the vehi- cle coming from the opposite direc-
tion is reflected or when sunlight is
reflected by water on the road sur-
face - When the back light is projected in
the direction of the vehicle's motion
(including the headlights of vehi-
cles)
- Road sign, shadow on the road, tunnel entrance, toll gate, partial
pavement
- Driving on a curve
The FCA performance maybe limited
while driving on a curve. The FCA
may not recognize the vehicle in front
even if in the same lane. It may pro-
duce the warning message and the
warning alarm prematurely, or it may
not produce the warning message or
the warning alarm at all. When driv-
ing on a curve, exercise caution,
maintain a safe braking distance,
and if necessary, depress the brake
pedal to reduce your driving speed in
order to maintain a safe distance.

Driving your vehicle
The FCA system may recognize a
vehicle in an adjacent lane when
driving on a curved road. In this
case, the system may apply the
brake. Always pay attention to road
and driving conditions while driving.
If necessary, depress the brake
pedal to reduce your driving speed in
order to maintain a safe distance.
Also, when necessary, you may
depress the accelerator pedal to pre-
vent the system from unnecessarily
decelerating your vehicle. Always
check the traffic conditions around
the vehicle.- Driving on a slope
The FCA performance maybe limited
while driving upward or downward on
a slope, and may not recognize the
vehicle in front in the same lane. It
may produce the warning message
and the warning alarm prematurely
or it may not produce the warning
message and the warning alarm at
all.
When the FCA suddenly recognizes
the vehicle in front while passing
over a slope, you may experience
sharp deceleration.Always keep your eyes forward while
driving upward or downward on a
slope, and, if necessary, depress the
brake pedal to reduce your driving
speed in order to maintain a safe dis-
tance.

- 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. 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.
- Recognizing the vehicle
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
recognize the cargo extending from
the vehicle. In these instances, you
must maintain a safe braking dis-
tance from the rearmost object, and
if necessary, depress the brake
pedal to reduce your driving speed in
order to maintain distance.

Driving your vehicle
Recognizing pedestrians
The sensor may be limited when:
- The pedestrian is not fully detectedby 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) - There is an item similar to a per-
son's body structure
- The pedestrian is small
- The pedestrian has impaired mobility
- The sensor recognition is limited
- 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
- If a sudden change in the sensor recognition takes place while driv-
ing over a speed bump,
- When the vehicle is severely shak- en,
- When driving around circular inter- section after the vehicle in front,
- If the front of the camera lens is contaminated by front glass tinting,
film, water repellent coating, dam-
age on glass or foreign matter
(sticker, insect, etc.) - The radar or camera or camera
lens is damaged.
- If the headlights of the vehicle are not used at night or in a tunnel sec-
tion, or the light is too weak
- If street light or the light of the vehi- cle coming from the opposite direc-
tion is reflected or when sunlight is
reflected by the water on the road
surface
- When the back light is projected in the direction of the vehicle's motion
(including the headlights of vehi-
cles)
- Road sign, shadow on the road, tunnel entrance, toll gate, partial
pavement
- If the moist on the front windshield is not entirely removed or it is
frozen
- The weather is foggy
- The radar/camera sensor recogni- tion is limited.

(CRUISE indicator light in the instru-
ment cluster illuminated) the cruise
control can be switched on acciden-
tally. Keep the cruise control system
off (CRUISE indicator light OFF)
when the cruise control is not in use,
to avoid inadvertently setting a speed.Use the cruise control system only
when traveling on open highways in
good weather.
Do not use the cruise control when
driving in heavy or varying traffic, or
on slippery (rainy, icy or snow-cov-
ered) or winding roads or over 6%
up-hill or down-hill roads.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
