• Detecting the vehicle in front of you
If the vehicle in front of you has cargo
that extends rearward from the cab,
or when the vehicle in front of you has
higher ground clearance, additional
special attention is required. Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist may not
be able to detect the cargo extending
from the vehicle. In these instances,
you must maintain a safe braking
distance from the rearmost object,
and if necessary, depress the brake
pedal to reduce your driving speed in
order to maintain distance.
Detecting pedestrians or cyclists
The sensor may be limited when:
• The pedestrian or cyclist is not fully
detected by the camera recognition
system, for example, if the pedestrian
is leaning over or is not fully walking
upright
• The pedestrian or cyclist is moving
very quickly or appears abruptly in the
camera detection area
• The pedestrian or cyclist is wearing
clothing that easily blends into the
background, making it difficult to be
detected by the camera recognition
system
• The outside lighting is too bright
(for example, when driving in bright
sunlight or in sun glare) or too dark
(for example, when driving on a dark
rural road at night)
• It is difficult to detect and distinguish
the pedestrian or cyclist from other
objects in the surroundings, for
example, when there is a group of
pedestrians, cyclists or a large crowd
• There is an item similar to a person’s
body structure
• The pedestrian or cyclist is small
• The pedestrian has impaired mobility
• The sensor recognition is limited
• 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
• When light coming from a street light
or an oncoming vehicle is reflected on
a wet road surface such as a puddle in
the road

Junction Turning
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist-
Junction Turning is designed to reduce
the risk of collision by detecting and
monitoring the oncoming vehicle ahead.
When the vehicle turns to the left at a
junction, Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist recognises the oncoming vehicle
ahead in advance with the front view
camera and the front radar. It produces
warning messages or haptic warning
alarms in accordance with the collision
risk levels.
Prerequisite for activation
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist is on
and ready if you select “Active Assist”
or “Warning Only” on the infotainment
system and when the following
prerequisites are satisfied:

Limitations of Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist
Junction Turning is only a supplemental
function for driver’s safety whilst turning
left on the crossroads. The driver should
hold the responsibility to control the
vehicle. Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist monitors the oncoming vehicle
ahead the road through the front view
camera and radar. In certain situations,
the front view camera and radar may not
be able to detect the oncoming vehicles
properly. The driver must pay careful
attention in the following situations
where Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist operation may be limited or it may
activate unintentionally.
The sensor may be limited when:
• The radar sensor or camera
recognizes the approaching vehicle
too late.
• The radar sensor or camera is blocked
with a foreign object or debris.
• The driving direction of the
approaching vehicle is irregular or
frontal.
• The approaching vehicle changes
lanes too late or decelerates suddenly.
• The angle of the approaching vehicle
is out of range.
• Whilst circling, the sensor (the front
view camera or front radar) does not
detect the approaching vehicle.
• The driving speed of the approaching
vehicle is too fast or slow.
• The head lamps of the approaching
vehicle are turned off or asymmetrical.

• The approaching vehicle stops whilst
turning left.
• The vehicle moves out of its lane or
returns to its lane.
• The vehicle changes lanes suddenly
at a low speed whilst there is an
approaching vehicle.
• The brightness outside is too so it
does not detect the vehicle.
• Inclement weather such as heavy rain
or snow obscures the field of view of
the front view camera or front radar.
• The approaching vehicle is covered
with snow.
• The field of view in front is obstructed
by sun glare.
• The shape of approaching vehicle is
unusual.

Lane Keeping Assist detect lane markers
on the road with a camera at the front
windshield, and assists the driver’s
steering to help keep the vehicle
between lanes.
When Lane Keeping Assist detects the
vehicle straying from its lane, it alerts the
driver with a visual and audible warning,
while applying a counter-steering torque,
trying to help prevent the vehicle from
moving out of its lane.
WARNING
Lane Keeping Assist system is not a
substitute for safe driving practices, but
a convenience function only. It is the
responsibility of the driver to always be
aware of the surroundings and steer the
vehicle.
WARNING
Take the following precautions when
using Lane Keeping Assist system:
• Do not turn the steering wheel
suddenly when the steering wheel
is being assisted by Lane Keeping
Assist.
• Lane Keeping Assist helps to prevent
the driver from moving out of the
lane (or road) unintentionally by
assisting the driver’s steering.
However, the driver should not solely
rely on Lane Keeping Assist but
always pay attention on the steering
wheel to stay in the lane.
• The operation of Lane Keeping
Assist can be cancelled or not work
properly according to road condition
and surroundings. Always be
cautious when driving.
• Do not disassemble Lane Keeping
Assist camera temporarily to tint
the window or attach any types
of coatings and accessories. If
you disassemble the camera and
assemble it again, have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer and have Lane Keeping Assist
checked for calibration.

• When you replace the windshield
glass, front view camera or related
parts of the steering wheel, have the
vehicle inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer and have the system
checked for calibration.
• Lane Keeping Assist detects lane
markers and controls the steering
wheel by a camera, therefore, if the
lane markers are hard to detect,
the system may not work properly.
Please refer to “Limitations of the
S y s t e m ”.
• Do not remove or damage the related
parts of Lane Keeping Assist.
• You may not hear a warning sound
of Lane Keeping Assist if the audio
volume is high.
• Do not place objects on the
dashboard that reflects light such as
mirrors, white paper, etc. This may
prevent Lane Keeping Assist from
functioning properly.
• Always have your hands on the
steering wheel while Lane Keeping
Assist is activated. If you continue
to drive with your hands off the
steering wheel after the “Keep hands
on steering wheel” warning message
appears, Lane Keeping Assist will
stop controlling the steering wheel.
• The steering wheel is not
continuously controlled so if the
vehicle speed is at a higher rate
when leaving a lane the vehicle may
not be controlled by Lane Keeping
Assist. The driver must always follow
the speed limit when using Lane
Keeping Assist.
• If you attach objects to the steering
wheel, Lane Keeping Assist may not
assist steering or the hands off alarm
may not work properly.
