Driving your vehicle
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 is
turned off (Traction & Stability control
disabled).
If the warning light remains ON when
the FCA is activated, have the sys-
tem checked by an authorized
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 this condition is selected,
the initial Forward Collision
Warning is activated later than nor-
mal. This setting reduces the
amount of distance between the
vehicle ahead before the initial
warning occurs.
Even though, 'Late' is selected if
the front vehicle suddenly stops
the initial warning activation time
may not seem late.
Select 'Late' when traffic is light
and when driving speed is slow.
- Normal:
When this condition is selected, the
initial Forward Collision Warning is
activated normally. This setting
allows for a nominal amount of dis-
tance between the vehicle ahead
before the initial warning occurs.

- Early:
When this condition is selected, the
initial Forward Collision Warning is
activated earlier than normal. This
setting maximizes 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.
If you feel the warning activates too
early, set Forward Collision
Warning to "Normal".Prerequisite for activation
FCA system is on and ready when
FCA is selected on the LCD display
and when the following prerequisites
are satisfied:
- The ESC (Electronic Stability
Control) is on.
- Driving speed exceeds approxi-
mately 6 mph (10 km/h). (FCA is
only activated within a certain
speed range.)
- The system detects a vehicle in
front, which may collide with your
vehicle. (FCA may not be activated
or may sound a warning alarm in
accordance with the driving situa-
tion or vehicle condition.)
Completely stop the vehicle
on a safe location before
operating the switch on the
steering wheel to activate/
deactivate FCA system.
FCA automatically activates
when the POWER button is in
the ON position. The driver
can deactivate FCA by cancel-
ing the system setting on the
LCD display.
If you cancel the ESC
(Electronic Stability Control)
when FCA system is turned
on FCA automatically deacti-
vates and the FCA warning
light illuminates. When the
ESC is canceled the FCA can-
not be activated on the LCD
display. The FCA warning light
will illuminate which is nor-
mal.

FCA Sensor
In order for the FCA system to oper-
ate properly, always make sure the
camera is clean and free of dirt,
snow, and debris. Dirt, snow, or for-
eign substances on the surface may
adversely affect the sensing perform-
ance of the sensor.The sensing performance of the
sensor may be affected if the fol-
lowing instructions are not fol-
lowed.
Always keep the camera sensor
clean and free of dirt and debris.
Use only genuine parts to repair
or replace a damaged sensor.
Be careful not to apply unneces-
sary force on the camera sensor. If
the sensor is forcibly moved out
of proper alignment, the FCA sys-
tem may not operate correctly. In
this case, a warning message may
not be displayed. Have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer. Do not tint the window or install
stickers, accessories around the
inside mirror where the camera
is installed.
NEVER locate any reflective
objects (i.e. white paper, mirror)
over the dashboard. Any light
reflection may cause a malfunc-
tion of the system.
Pay extreme caution to keep the
camera out of water.
NEVER arbitrarily 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
Have the system checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer when:
• The windshield glass is replaced.
• The camera or related parts are
repaired or removed.

System Not Operating
Check Forward Collision Avoidance
Assist system
When FCA is not working properly,
the FCA warning light ( ) will illu-
minate and the warning message
will appear for a few seconds. After
the message disappears, the mas-
ter warning light ( ) will illumi-
nate. In this case, have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
The FCA warning message may
appear along with the illumination
of the ESC (Electronic Stability
Control) warning light and FCA is
automatically deactivated.
Even if there is any problem
with the brake control function
of FCA system, the vehicle's
basic braking performance will
operate normally. However,
brake control function for
avoiding collision will not acti-
vate.
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.
FCA system may activate dur-
ing braking and the vehicle
may stop suddenly shifting
loose objects toward the pas-
sengers. Always keep loose
objects secured.
FCA system may not activate
if the driver applies the brake
pedal to avoid a collision.
The brake control may be
insufficient, possibly causing
a collision, if a vehicle in front
abruptly stops. Always pay
extreme caution.
OIK057091L
FCA is only a supplemental
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, FCA system may unin-
tentionally activate. This initial
warning message appears on
the LCD display with a warn-
ing chime.
Also, in certain instances the
front camera recognition sys-
tem may not detect the vehi-
cle ahead. FCA system may
not activate and the warning
message will not be dis-
played.
