Driver assistance system
7-34
Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist
is designed to help detect and monitor
approaching vehicles in the driver’s
blind spot area and warn the driver
of a possible collision with a warning
message and audible warning.
In addition, if there is a risk of collision
when changing lanes or driving forward
out of a parking space, Blind-Spot
Collision-Avoidance Assist will help avoid
collision by applying the brake.
OJX1079256
Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist
helps detect and inform the driver that a
vehicle is in the blind spot.
CAUTION
The detecting range may vary
depending on the speed of your vehicle.
However, even if there is a vehicle in the
blind spot area, Blind-spot Collision-
Avoidance Assist may not warn you
when you pass by at high speeds.
OJX1079026
Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist
helps detect and inform the driver that
a vehicle is approaching at high speed
from the blind spot area.
CAUTION
Warning timing may vary depending on
the speed of the vehicle approaching at high speed.
OJX1079027
When changing lanes by detecting
the lane ahead, if Blind-Spot Collision-
Avoidance Assist judges that there is
a collision risk with an approaching
vehicle in the blind spot, it will help avoid
collision by applying the brake.

CAUTION
Take the following precautions to
maintain optimal performance of the
detecting sensor: • Never disassemble the rear corner
radar or radar assembly, or apply any impact on it.
• If there is impact on the rear corner
radar or near the radar, even though
the warning message does not
appear on the cluster, Blind-spot
Collision-Avoidance Assist may not
operate properly. We recommend
that the vehicle be inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
• If the rear corner radars have been
replaced or repaired, we recommend
that the vehicle be inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
• Use only genuine parts to repair the
rear bumper where the rear corner
radar is located.
• Do not apply license plate frame or
objects, such as a bumper sticker,
film or a bumper guard near the rear
corner radar.
• The function may not work properly
if the bumper has been replaced, or
the surroundings of the rear corner
radar has been damaged or paint has been applied.
• If a trailer, carrier, etc. is installed,
it may adversely affect the
performance of the rear corner radar
or the function may not operate.

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.
