Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
disabled
OTM070093N
When the front windshield where the
front view camera is located or the
sensor is covered with foreign material,
such as snow or rain, it can reduce the
detecting performance and temporarily
limit or disable Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist.
If this occurs the ‘Forward Safety
system(s) disabled. Camera obscured’ warning message, and the and
warning lights will illuminate on the
cluster.
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist will
operate normally when such snow, rain
or foreign material is removed.
If Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
does not operate normally after
obstruction (snow, rain, or foreign
material) is removed, have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
WARNING
• Even though the warning message or
warning light does not appear on the
cluster, Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist may not properly operate.
• Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
may not properly operate in an
area (e.g. open terrain), where any
substance are not detected after
turning ON the engine.

OADAS003
OADAS002
OADAS001
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
may not detect other vehicles,
pedestrians or cyclists in front of you
on curved roads adversely affecting
the performance of the sensors. This
may result in no warning or braking
assist when necessary.

07
7-11
When driving on a curve, you must
maintain a safe braking distance,
and if necessary, steer the vehicle
and depress the brake pedal to
reduce your driving speed in order to
maintain a safe distance.
OADAS006
OADAS005
OADAS004
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
may detect a vehicle, pedestrian or
cyclist in the next lane or outside the
lane when driving on a curved road.
If this occurs, Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist may unnecessarily
warn the driver and control the
brake. Always check the traffic
conditions around the vehicle.•
Driving on a slope
OADAS009
OADAS008
OADAS007
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
may not detect other vehicles,
pedestrians or cyclists in front of
you while driving uphill or downhill
adversely affecting the performance
of the sensors.

Driver assistance system
7-12
This may result in unnecessary
warning or braking assist, or no
warning or braking assist when
necessary.
Also, vehicle speed may rapidly
decrease when a vehicle, pedestrian
or cyclist ahead is suddenly
detected.
Always have your eyes on the road
while driving uphill or downhill and
if necessary, steer the vehicle and
depress the brake pedal to reduce
your driving speed in order to
maintain a safe distance.•
Changing lanes
OADAS032[A] : Your vehicle,
[B] : Lane changing vehicle
When a vehicle moves into your lane
from an adjacent lane, it cannot
be detected by the sensor until it
is in the sensor's detection range.
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
may not immediately detect the
vehicle when the vehicle changes
lanes abruptly. In this case, you must
maintain a safe braking distance,
and if necessary, steer the vehicle
and depress the brake pedal to
reduce your driving speed in order to
maintain a safe distance.

07
7-13
OADAS033[A] : Your vehicle,
[B] : Lane changing vehicle,
[C] : Same lane vehicle
When a vehicle in front of you
merges out of the lane, Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist may not
immediately detect the vehicle that
is now in front of you.
In this case, you must maintain a safe
braking distance, and if necessary,
steer the vehicle and depress the
brake pedal to reduce your driving
speed in order to maintain a safe
distance.•
Detecting vehicle
ONX4E070004
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, steer the vehicle
and depress the brake pedal to
reduce your driving speed in order to
maintain distance.

WARNING
• When you are towing a trailer or
another vehicle, we recommend that
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist is
turned off due to safety reasons.
• Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
may operate if objects that are
similar in shape or characteristics to
vehicles, pedestrians and cyclists are
detected.
• Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
does not operate on bicycles,
motorcycles, or smaller wheeled
objects, such as luggage bags,
shopping carts, or strollers.
• Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist may not operate normally if
interfered by strong electromagnetic
waves.
• Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
may not operate for 15 seconds after
the vehicle is started, or the front
view camera is initialized.

FORWARD COLLISION–AVOIDANCE ASSIST (FCA) (SENSOR
FUSION) (IF EQUIPPED)
Basic function
OJX1070255L
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist is
designed to help detect and monitor the
vehicle ahead or help detect a pedestrian
or cyclist in the roadway and warn the
driver that a collision is imminent with
a warning message and an audible
warning, and if necessary, apply
emergency braking.
Junction Turning function (if equipped)
ONX4070083
Junction Turning function will help avoid
a collision with an oncoming vehicle in
an adjacent lane when turning left (left-
hand drive) or right (right-hand drive) at
a crossroad with the turn signal on by
applying emergency braking.

CAUTION
Take the following precautions to
maintain optimal performance of the
detecting sensor:
• Never disassemble the detecting
sensor or sensor assembly, or apply
any impact on it.
• If the detecting sensors have been
replaced or repaired, have the
vehicle inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
• Never install any accessories or
stickers on the front windshield, or
tint the front windshield.
• Pay extreme caution to keep the
front view camera dry.
• Never place any reflective objects
(i.e. white paper, mirror) over the
dashboard.
• Do not apply license plate frame or
objects, such as a bumper sticker,
film or a bumper guard, near the
front radar cover.
• Always keep the front radar and
cover clean and free of dirt and
debris.
Use only a soft cloth to wash the
vehicle. Do not spray pressurized
water directly on the sensor or
sensor cover. •
If unnecessary force has been
applied to the radar or around the
radar, Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist may not properly operate even
though a warning message does
not appear on the cluster. Have the
vehicle inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
• Use only genuine parts to repair or
replace a damaged front radar cover.
Do not apply paint to the front radar
cover.
