Driving your vehicle
The Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist (FCA) system is designed to
help detect and monitor the vehicle
ahead or detect a pedestrian (if
equipped) in the roadway through
radar signals and camera recognition
to warn the driver that a collision is
imminent, and if necessary, apply
emergency braking.
System setting and activation
System setting
The driver can activate the FCA by
placing the ignition switch in the
ON position and by selecting:
"User Settings →Driver
Assistance →FCA (Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist)"
The FCA deactivates, when the driv-
er cancels the system setting.

Take the following precautions
when using the Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist
(FCA) system:
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 driv-
er. The sensing range and
objects detectable by the sen-
sors are limited. Pay attention
to the road conditions at all
times.
NEVER drive too fast and
drive in accordance with the
road conditions.
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

The warning light illumi-
nates on the LCD display,
when you cancel the FCA
system. The driver can
monitor the FCA ON/OFF status on
the LCD display. Also, the warning
light illuminates when the ESC
(Electronic Stability Control) is
turned off.
If the warning light remains ON when
the FCA is activated, we recommend
that the system be checked by an
authorised HYUNDAI dealer.
The driver can select the initial warn-
ing activation time on the LCD dis-
play.
Go to the 'User Settings →Driver
Assistance →Forward Collision
Warning →Late/Normal/Early'.The options for the initial Forward
Collision Warning includes the fol-
lowing:
- Late :
When 'Late' is selected, the initial
Forward Collision Warning is activat-
ed later than normal. This setting
reduces the amount of distance
between the vehicle or pedestrian
ahead before the initial warning
occurs.
Select 'Late' when traffic is light and
when driving speed is slow.- Normal :
When 'Normal' is selected, the initial
Forward Collision Warning is activat-
ed normally. This setting allows for a
nominal amount of distance between
the vehicle or pedestrian ahead
before the initial warning occurs.
- Early :
When 'Early' is selected, the initial
Forward Collision Warning is activat-
ed earlier than normal. This setting
maximises the amount of distance
between the vehicle ahead before
the initial warning occurs.
Even though, 'Early' is selected, if
the front vehicle suddenly stops, the
initial warning activation time may
not seem fast.

Driving your vehicle
Prerequisite for activation
The FCA system is on and ready
when FCA is selected on the LCD
display and when the following pre-
requisites are satisfied:
- The ESC (Electronic Stability
Control) is on.
- Driving speed exceeds approxi-
mately 10km/h (the FCA is only
activated within a certain speed
range).
- The system detects a pedestrian
or a vehicle in front, which may col-
lide with your vehicle (the FCA may
not be activated or may sound a
warning alarm depending on the
driving situation or vehicle condi-
tion).
❈The FCA may not operate proper-
ly according to the frontal situa-
tion, the direction of pedestrian
and speed.
FCA Warning Message and
System Control
The FCA produces warning mes-
sages and warning alarms depend-
ing on the collision risk levels, such
as abrupt stopping of the vehicle in
front, insufficient braking distance, or
pedestrian detection. Also, it controls
the brakes in accordance with the
collision risk levels.
The driver can select the initial warn-
ing activation time in the User
Settings on the LCD display. The
options for the initial Forward
Collision Warning include EARLY,
NORMAL, or LATE initial warning
time.Completely stop the vehicle at
a safe location before operat-
ing the switch on the steering
wheel to activate /deactivate
the FCA system.
The FCA automatically acti-
vates upon placing the igni-
tion switch to the ON position.
The driver can deactivate the
FCA by cancelling the system
setting on the LCD display.
The FCA automatically deacti-
vates upon cancelling the
ESC (Electronic Stability
Control). When the ESC is
cancelled, the FCA cannot be
activated on the LCD display.
The FCA warning light will
illuminate which is normal.

Brake operation
In an urgent situation, the braking
system enters into the ready sta-
tus, to react promptly to the driver
depressing the brake pedal.
The FCA provides additional brak-
ing power for optimum braking per-
formance, when the driver depress-
es the brake pedal.
The braking control is automatical-
ly deactivated, when the driver
sharply depresses the accelerator
pedal, or when the driver abruptly
operates the steering wheel.
The FCA braking control is auto-
matically cancelled, when risk fac-
tors disappear.
FCA Sensor
In order for the FCA system to oper-
ate properly, always make sure the
sensor cover or sensor is clean and
free of dirt, snow, and debris. Dirt,
snow, or foreign substances on the
sensor cover or sensor may adverse-
ly affect the sensing performance of
the sensor. The driver should always use
extreme caution whilst operat-
ing the vehicle, whether or not
there is a warning message or
alarm from the FCA system.
CAUTION
The FCA system logic operates
within certain parameters, such
as the distance from the vehicle
or pedestrian ahead, the speed
of the vehicle ahead, and the
driver's vehicle speed. Certain
conditions such as inclement
weather and road conditions
may affect the operation of the
FCA system.
WARNING
The FCA braking control cannot
completely stop the vehicle nor
avoid all collisions. The driver
should hold the responsibility
to safely drive and control the
vehicle.
WARNING
Never deliberately drive danger-
ously to activate the system.

Do not apply licence plate
frames or foreign objects such
as a bumper sticker or a bumper
guard near the radar sensor.
Doing so may adversely affect
the sensing 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 pres-
surised 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, the FCA system may
not operate correctly. In this
case, a warning message may
not be displayed. We recom-
mend you have the vehicle
inspected by an authorised
HYUNDAI dealer.
(Continued)(Continued)
If the front bumper becomes
damaged in the area around the
radar sensor, the FCA system
may not operate properly. Have
the vehicle inspected by an
authorised 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. NEVER install any accessories
or stickers on the front wind-
screen, nor tint the front wind-
screen.
NEVER locate any reflective
objects (i.e. white paper, mirror)
over the instrument panel. Any
light reflection may cause a mal-
function of the system.
Pay extreme caution to keep the
camera out of water.
NEVER disassemble the camera
assembly, nor apply any impact
on the camera assembly.
Playing the vehicle audio sys-
tem at high volume may offset
the system warning sounds.
Information
We recommend you have the system
checked by an authorised HYUNDAI
dealer when:
• The windscreen glass is replaced.
• The camera or related parts are
repaired or removed.

Warning message and warning
light
FCA disabled (Forward Collision
Avoidance Assist). Radar blocked
When the sensor cover is blocked
with dirt, snow, or debris, the FCA
system operation may stop temporar-
ily. If this occurs, a warning message
will appear on the LCD display.
Remove any dirt, snow, or debris and
clean the radar sensor cover before
operating the FCA system. The sys-
tem will operate normally when such
dirt, snow or debris is removed.
The FCA may not properly operate in
an area (e.g. open terrain), where any
substances are not detected after
turning ON the engine.
System Malfunction
Check FCA (Forward Collision
Avoidance Asst.)
When the FCA is not working prop-
erly, the FCA warning light ( )
will illuminate and the warning
message will appear for a few sec-
onds. After the message disap-
pears, the master warning light
( ) will illuminate. In this case,
have the vehicle inspected by an
authorised HYUNDAI dealer.
The FCA warning message may
appear along with the illumination
of the ESC (Electronic Stability
Control) warning light.
The FCA is only a supplemen-
tal system for the driver’s con-
venience. The driver should
hold the responsibility to con-
trol the vehicle operation. Do
not solely depend on the FCA
system. Rather, maintain a
safe braking distance, and, if
necessary, depress the brake
pedal to reduce the driving
speed.
In certain instances and
under certain driving condi-
tions, the FCA system may
activate unintentionally. This
initial warning message
appears on the LCD display
with a warning chime.
Also, in certain instances the
front radar sensor or camera
recognition system may not
detect the vehicle or pedestri-
an ahead. The FCA system
may not activate and the
warning message will not be
displayed.

(Continued)
Even if there is any problem
with the brake control func-
tion of the FCA system, the
vehicle’s basic braking per-
formance will operate normal-
ly. However, brake control
function for avoiding collision
will not activate.
If the vehicle in front stops
suddenly, you may have less
control of the brake system.
Therefore, always keep a safe
distance between your vehicle
and the vehicle in front of you.
The FCA system may activate
during braking and the vehi-
cle may stop suddenly shift-
ing loose objects toward the
passengers. Always keep
loose objects secured.
The FCA system may not acti-
vate if the driver applies the
brake pedal to avoid a colli-
sion.
(Continued)
The FCA system operates
only to detect vehicles or
pedestrians in front of the
vehicle.
The FCA system does not
operate when the vehicle is in
reverse.
The FCA system is not
designed to detect other
objects on the road such as
animals.
The FCA system does not
detect vehicles in the oppo-
site lane.
The FCA system does not
detect cross traffic vehicles
that are approaching.
The FCA system cannot detect
the driver approaching the side
view of a parked vehicle (for
example on a dead end street.)
In these cases, you must main-
tain a safe braking distance,
and if necessary, depress the
brake pedal to reduce the driv-
ing speed in order to maintain a
safe distance.
WARNING (Continued)
The brake control may be
insufficient, possibly causing
a collision, if a vehicle in front
abruptly stops. Always pay
extreme caution.
Occupants may get injured, if
the vehicle abruptly stops by
the activated FCA system. Pay
extreme caution.

Limitations of the System
The Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist (FCA) system is designed to
monitor the vehicle ahead or a pedes-
trian on the roadway through radar
signals and camera recognition to
warn the driver that a collision is immi-
nent, and if necessary, apply emer-
gency braking.
In certain situations, the radar sen-
sor or the camera may not be able to
detect the vehicle or pedestrian
ahead. In these cases, the FCA sys-
tem may not operate normally. The
driver must pay careful attention in
the following situations where the
FCA operation may be limited.
Detecting vehicles
The sensor may be limited when:
The radar sensor or camera is
blocked with a foreign object or
debris
Inclement weather such as heavy
rain or snow obscures the field of
view of the radar sensor or camera
There is interference by electro-
magnetic waves There is severe irregular reflection
from the radar sensor
The radar/camera sensor recogni-
tion is limited
The vehicle in front is too small to
be detected (for example a motor-
cycle or a bicycle, etc.)
The vehicle in front is an oversize
vehicle or trailer that is too big to
be detected by the camera recog-
nition system (for example a tractor
trailer, etc.)
The driver's field of view is not well
illuminated (either too dark or too
much reflection or too much back-
light that obscures the field of view)
The vehicle in front does not have
their rear lights turned ON
The outside brightness changes
suddenly, for example when enter-
ing or exiting a tunnel
Light coming from a street light or
an oncoming vehicle is reflected on
a wet road surface such as a pud-
dle on the road
The field of view in front is
obstructed by sun glare The windscreen glass is fogged
up; a clear view of the road is
obstructed
The vehicle in front is driving errat-
ically
The vehicle is on unpaved or
uneven rough surfaces, or road
with sudden gradient changes.
The vehicle is driven near areas
containing metal substances as a
construction zone, railroad, etc.
The vehicle drives inside a build-
ing, such as a basement parking
lot
The adverse road conditions cause
excessive vehicle vibrations whilst
driving
The sensor recognition changes
suddenly when passing over a
speed bump
The vehicle in front is moving verti-
cally to the driving direction
The vehicle in front is stopped ver-
tically
The vehicle in front is driving
towards your vehicle or reversing
You are on roundabouts and the
vehicle in front circles

- Driving on a curve
The performance of the FCA system
may be limited when driving on a
curved road.
On curved roads, the other vehicle
on the same lane is not recognized
and the FCA system’s performance
may be degraded. This may result in
unnecessary alarm or braking or no
alarm or braking when necessary.
Also, in certain instances the front
radar sensor or camera recognition
system may not detect the vehicle
travelling on a curved road.
In these cases, the driver 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.The FCA system may recognise a
vehicle in the next lane when driving
on a curved road.
In this case, the system may unnec-
essarily alarm the driver and apply
the brake.
Always pay attention to road and
driving conditions, whilst driving. If
necessary, depress the brake pedal
to reduce your driving speed in order
to maintain a safe distance.
Also, when necessary depress the
accelerator pedal to prevent the sys-
tem from unnecessarily decelerating
your vehicle.
Check to be sure that the road con-
ditions permit safe operation of FCA.- Driving on a slope
The performance of the FCA decreas-
es whilst driving upward or downward
on a slope, not recognising the vehicle
in front in the same lane. It may unnec-
essarily produce the warning mes-
sage and the warning alarm, or it may
not produce the warning message and
the warning alarm at all.
When the FCA suddenly recognises
the vehicle in front whilst passing
over a slope, you may experience
sharp deceleration.
Always keep your eyes forward whilst
driving upward or downward on a
slope, and, if necessary, depress the
brake pedal to reduce your driving
speed in order to maintain distance.
