Warning and System Control
Blind-Spot Collision Warning
(BCW) system
First stage alert
If a vehicle is detected within the
boundary of the system, a warning
light will illuminate on the outer side
view mirror and the head up display
(if equipped).
If the detected vehicle is no longer
within the blind spot area, the warn-
ing will turn off according to the driv-
ing conditions of the vehicle.
[A] : Warning sound
Second stage alert
A warning chime to alert the driver will activate when:
1. A vehicle has been detected in the blind spot area by the radar system
AND.
2. The turn signal is applied (same side as where the vehicle is being detect-
ed).
When this alert is activated, the warning light on the outer side view mirror
and the head up display (if equipped) will also blink. And a warning chime will
sound.
If you turn off the turn signal indicator, the second stage alert will be deacti-
vated.
If the detected vehicle is no longer within the blind spot area, the warning will
turn off according to the driving conditions of the vehicle.OLX2058033

Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance
Assist (BCA) system
The Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance
Assist (BCA) system may apply brak-
ing power, when an approaching
vehicle is detected within a certain
distance next to or behind your vehi-
cle.
In this situation, the system gently
apply braking power on the tire,
which is located in the opposite side
of the possible-colliding point. The
instrument cluster will inform the
driver of the system activation.
The warning light on the outer
side view mirror will illumi-
nate whenever a vehicle is
detected at the rear side by
the system.
To avoid accidents, do not
focus only on the warning
light and neglect to see the
surroundings of the vehicle.
Drive safely even though the
vehicle is equipped with a
Blind-Spot Collision Warning
(BCW) system. Do not solely
rely on the system but check
your surroundings before
changing lanes or backing the
vehicle up.
The system may not alert the
driver in some situations due
to system limitations so
always check your surround-
ings while driving.
WARNING
Always pay attention to road
and traffic conditions while
driving, whether or not the
warning light on the outer
side view mirror illuminates or
there is a warning alarm.
Playing the vehicle audio sys-
tem at high volume may pre-
vent occupants from hearing
the Blind-Spot Collision
Warning system warning
sounds.
If any other warning sound
such as seat belt warning
chime is already generated,
the Blind-Spot Collision
Warning (BCW) system warn-
ing may not sound.
CAUTION

5-84
Driving your vehicle
Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist
(BCA) system is automatically deacti-
vated when:
- The vehicle drives a certain dis-
tance away
- The vehicle direction is changed
against the possible-colliding point
- The steering wheel is abruptly
moved
- The brake pedal is depressed
- After a certain period of time
The driver should drive the vehicle in
the middle of the vehicle lanes to
keep the system in the ready status.
When the vehicle drives too close to
one side of the vehicle lanes, the
system may not properly operate.
In addition, the system may not prop-
erly control your vehicle in accor-
dance with driving situations. Thus,
always pay close attention to road
conditions.
Detecting Sensor
(Camera and Radar)

The driver is responsible for
accurate steering.
Do not unnecessarily operate
the steering wheel, when the
Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance
Assist System is in operation.
Always pay attention to road
and traffic conditions while
driving. The Blind-Spot
Collision-Avoidance Assist
system may not operate or
unnecessarily operate
depending on certain situa-
tions.
The Blind-Spot Collision-
Avoidance Assist system is
not a substitute for safe driv-
ing practices, but is a supple-
mental system only. It is the
responsibility of the driver to
always drive cautiously to
prevent unexpected and sud-
den situations from occur-
ring. Pay attention to road
conditions at all times.

Front camera
The front camera function as a sen-
sor detecting the lane. If the sensor is
covered with snow, rain or foreign
substance, the system may tem-
porarily be canceled and not work
properly. Always keep the sensor
clean.
Refer to Lane Keeping Assist (LKA)
System for cautions for the front
camera sensor.
Rear radar
The rear radars are located inside
the rear bumper for detecting the
side and rear areas. Always keep the
rear bumper clean for proper opera-
tion of the system. The system may not work prop-
erly when the bumper has been
damaged, or if the rear bumper
has been replaced or repaired.
The sensing range differs some-
what according to the width of
the road. When the road is nar-
row, the system may detect
other vehicles in the next lane.
The system may turn off if inter-
fered by strong electromagnetic
waves.
Always keep the sensors clean.
NEVER disassemble the sensor
component or apply any impact
on the sensor component.
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 system may not
operate correctly.
In this case, a warning message
may not be displayed. Have the
vehicle inspected by an author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer. Do not apply foreign objects
such as a bumper sticker or a
bumper guard near the radar
sensor or apply paint to the sen-
sor area. Doing so may adverse-
ly affect the performance of the
sensor.
NEVER install any accessories
or stickers on the front wind-
shield, or tint the front wind-
shield.
Pay extreme caution to keep the
camera sensor dry.
NEVER place any reflective
objects (i.e. white paper, mirror)
over the crash pad. Any light
reflection may prevent the sys-
tem from functioning properly.
NOTICE

Driving your vehicle
Warning message
Blind-Spot Collision Warning
(BCW) system disabled.
Radar blocked
This warning message may appear
When:
- One or both of the sensors on the
rear bumper is blocked by dirt or
snow or a foreign object.
- Driving in rural areas where the
sensor does not detect another
vehicle for an extended period of
time.
- When there is inclement weather
such as heavy snow or rain.If any of these conditions occur, the
light on the BCW/BCA switch and the
system will turn off automatically.
When the BCW canceled warning
message is displayed in the cluster,
check to make sure that the rear
bumper is free from any dirt or snow
in the areas where the sensor is
located. Remove any dirt, snow, or
foreign material that could interfere
with the radar sensors.
After any dirt or debris is removed,
the system should operate normally
after about 10 minutes of driving the
vehicle.
If the system still does not operate
normally have your vehicle inspected
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Information
Turn off the BCW, BCA and RCCW
system when a trailer or carrier is
installed.
- Press the BCW/BCA switch (the
indicator on the switch will turn off)
- Deactivate the RCCW system by

Check Blind-Spot Collision
Warning (BCW) system
If there is a problem with the BCW
system, a warning message will
appear and the light on the switch
will turn off. The system will turn off
automatically. BCA will not operate
also if the BCW system turns off due
to malfunction. Have your vehicle
inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
Check Blind-Spot Collision-
Avoidance Assist (BCA) system
If there is a problem with the BCA
system, a warning message will
appear. The system will turn off auto-
matically. BCW will still operate even
if the BCA system turns off due to
malfunction. Have your vehicle
inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer to use BCA system.
Limitations of the System
The driver must be cautious in the
below situations because the system
may not detect other vehicles or
objects in certain circumstances:
When a trailer or carrier is
installed.
The vehicle driven in inclement
weather such as heavy rain or
snow.
The sensor is polluted with rain,
snow, mud, etc.
The rear bumper where the sensor
is located is covered with a foreign
object such as a bumper sticker, a
bumper guard, a bike rack, etc.
The rear bumper is damaged, or
the sensor is out of the original
default position.
The vehicle height gets lower or
higher due to heavy loading in a
luggage compartment, abnormal
tire pressure, etc.
When the temperature of the rear
bumper is high.
When the sensors are blocked by
other vehicles, walls or parking-lot
pillars.
