Electric Chromic Mirror (ECM)
(For America only, if equipped)
The electric rearview mirror automat-
ically controls the glare from the
headlamp of the car behind you in
nighttime or low light driving condi-
tions.
When the engine is running, the
glare is automatically controlled by
the sensor mounted in the rearview
mirror. The sensor detects the light
level around the vehicle, and auto-
matically adjusts to control the head-
lamp glare from vehicles behind you.
Whenever the shift lever is placed in
R (Reverse), the mirror will automat-
ically go to the brightest setting in
order to improve the drivers view
behind the vehicle.
To operate the electric rearview
mirror:
Press the ON/OFF button (1) to
turn the automatic dimming func-
tion off. The mirror indicator light
will turn off.
Press the ON/OFF button (1) to
turn the automatic dimming func-
tion on. The mirror indicator light
will illuminate.
The mirror defaults to the ON posi-
tion whenever the ignition switch or
the Engine Start/Stop button is in
the ON position.

Auto Defogging System
(Only for Automatic Climate
Control System, if equipped)
Auto defogging reduces the possibil-
ity of fogging up the inside of the
windshield by automatically sensing
the moisture on inside the wind-
shield.
The auto defogging system operates
when the heater or air conditioning is
on.
Information
The auto defogging system may not
operate normally, when the outside
temperature is below 50 °F (-10 °C).When the Auto Defogging
System operates, the indi-
cator will illuminate.
If high levels of moisture are sensed in
the vehicle, the Auto Defogging System
will operate in the following order:
Step 1: Outside air position
Step 2:Operating the air conditioning
Step 3: Blowing air toward the wind-
shield
Step 4: Increasing air flow toward the
windshield
If the air conditioning is off or recircu-
lated air position is manually selected
while Auto Defogging System is ON,
the Auto Defogging System Indicator
will blink 3 times to signal that the
manual operation has been canceled.
To cancel or reset the
Auto Defogging System
Press the front windshield defroster
button for 3 seconds when the ignition
switch is in the ON position. When the
Auto Defogging System is canceled,
the ADS OFF symbol will blink 3 times
and ADS OFF will be displayed on the
climate control information screen.When the Auto Defogging System is
reset, the ADS OFF symbol will blink
6 times without a signal.
Information
• When the air conditioning is turned
on by Auto defogging system, if you
try to turn off the air conditioning, the
indicator will blink 3 times and the air
conditioning will not be turned off.
• For efficiency, do not select recircu-
lated air position while the Auto
defogging system is operating.
• When Auto defogging mode is
selected, fan speed, temperature and
intake mode which is adjusted man-
ually are canceled for better defog-
ging result.
Do not remove the sensor cover
located on the upper end of the
windshield glass.
Damage to system parts could
occur and may not be covered by
your vehicle warranty.

Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
is to help reduce or to avoid accident
risk. It recognizes the distance from
the vehicle ahead through the sen-
sors (i.e. radar), and, if necessary,
warns the driver or applies emer-
gency braking.
❈Radar type FCA does not recog-
nize for pedestrians in front.System Setting and Activation
System setting
The driver can activate FCA by
placing the ignition switch to the
ON position and by selecting:
'User Settings →Driving Assist →
Forward Collision-avoidance Assist
(FCA)'
FCA deactivates, when the driver
deselects the system setting.

Take the following precautions
when using Forward Collision-
avoidance Assist :
This system is only a supple-
mental system and it is not
intended to, nor does it replace
the need for extreme care and
attention of the driver. The
sensing range and objects
detectable by the sensors are
limited. Pay attention to the
road conditions at all times.
NEVER drive too fast in accor-
dance with the road condi-
tions or while cornering.
Always drive cautiously to
prevent unexpected and sud-
den situations from occur-
ring. FCA does not stop the
vehicle completely and is not
a collision avoidance system.
WARNING
Forward Collision-avoidance
Assist is a supplemental sys-
tem and is not a substitute for
safe driving practices.
It is the responsibility of the
driver to always check the
speed and distance to the vehi-
cle ahead to ensure it is safe to
use FCA.

FCA Sensor
In order for FCA to operate properly,
always make sure the sensor cover
or sensor is clean and free of dirt,
snow, and debris. Dirt, snow, or for-
eign substances on the sensor cover
or sensor may adversely affect the
sensing performance of the sensor. Do not apply a license plate
frame or foreign objects such as
a bumper sticker or a bumper
guard or number plate molding
near the radar sensor. Doing so
may adversely affect the sens-
ing performance of the radar.
Always keep the radar sensor
and cover clean and free of dirt
and debris.
Use only a soft cloth to wash the
vehicle. Do not spray pressur-
ized water directly on the sensor
or sensor cover.
Be careful not to apply unneces-
sary force on the radar sensor or
sensor cover. If the sensor is
forcibly moved out of proper
alignment, FCA may not operate
correctly. In this case, a warning
message may not be displayed.
Have the vehicle inspected by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
(Continued)
NOTICE
FCA logic operates within cer-
tain parameters, such as the
distance from the vehicle, the
speed of the vehicle ahead, and
the driver's vehicle speed.
Certain conditions such as
inclement weather and road
conditions may affect the oper-
ation of FCA.
WARNING
FCA braking control cannot
completely stop the vehicle nor
avoid all collisions. The driver is
responsible for driving safely
and controlling the vehicle.
WARNING
Never deliberately drive danger-
ously to activate the system.

(Continued)
If the front bumper becomes
damaged in the area around the
radar sensor, FCA may not oper-

inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Use only genuine HYUNDAI
parts to repair or replace a dam-
aged sensor or sensor cover. Do
not apply paint to the sensor
cover.
Playing the vehicle audio sys-
tem at high volume may make it
difficult to hear FCA warning
sounds.

occurs, a warning message will
appear on the LCD display. Remove
any dirt, snow, or debris and clean
the radar sensor cover before operat-
