OTM070237OTM070237
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, application of
emergency braking.
Detecting sensor
ONX4PH071001NONX4PH071001N[1] : Front view camera
Refer to the picture above for the
detailed location of the detecting sensor.
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 sensor have been
replaced or repaired, have your
vehicle inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
• Never install any accessories or
stickers on the front windshield, or
tint the front windshield.
• Exercise extreme caution to keep the
front view camera dry.
• Never place any reflective objects
(for example, white paper, mirror)
over the dashboard.
• Do not place any objects near the
front windshield or install any
accessories on the front windshield
as it can affect the performance
of the defogging and defrosting
function of the climate control
system, which may prevent the
Driver assistance systems from
operating.

Assist Operation
Warning and control
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist is
t

o help warn and control the vehicle
depending on collision risk level:
‘Collision Warning’, ‘Emergency Braking’
and ‘Stopping vehicle and ending brake
control’.
ONX4072103NONX4072103N
Collision Warning
• To warn the driver of a collision, the
‘Collision Warning’ warning message
will appear on the cluster and an
audible warning will sound.
• If a vehicle is detected in front, the function will operate when
your vehicle speed is between
approximately 6~112 mph (10~180
km/h).
• If a pedestrian or cyclist is detected in front, the function will operate
when your vehicle speed is between
approximately 6~49 mph (10~80
km/h).
• If ‘Active Assist’ is selected, braking may be assisted.

Emergency Braking
• To warn the driver that emergency braking will occur, the ‘Emergency
Braking’ warning message will appear
on the cluster and an audible warning
will sound.
• If a vehicle is detected in front, the function will operate when
your vehicle speed is between
approximately 6~37 mph (10~60
km/h).
• If a pedestrian or cyclist is detected in front, the function will operate
when your vehicle speed is between
approximately 6~37 mph (10~60
km/h).
• In an emergency braking situation, braking is assisted with strong braking
power by the function to help prevent
a collision with the vehicle, pedestrian
or cyclist ahead.
ONX4E070003ONX4E070003
Stopping vehicle and ending brake control
• When the vehicle is stopped due to emergency braking, the ‘Drive
carefully’ warning message will
appear on the cluster.
For your safety, the driver should
depress the brake pedal immediately
and check the surroundings.
• Brake control will end after the vehicle is stopped by emergency braking for
approximately 2 seconds.
WARNING
Take the following precautions when
using Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist:
• For your safety, only change the
Settings after parking the vehicle at a
safe location.
• With ‘Active Assist’ or ‘Warning Only’
selected, when ESC is turned off by
pressing and holding the ESC OFF
button, Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist will turn off automatically.
In this case, Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist cannot be set
from the Settings menu and the

warning light will illuminate on the
cluster which is normal. If ESC is
turned on by pressing the ESC OFF
button, Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist will maintain the last setting.
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
does not operate in all situations and
cannot avoid all collisions.

• The driver has the responsibility to
control the vehicle. Do not solely
depend on Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist. Rather, maintain
a safe braking distance, and, if
necessary, depress the brake pedal
to reduce driving speed or to stop
the vehicle.
• Never deliberately operate Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist on people,
objects, etc. It may cause serious
injury or death.
• Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist may not operate if the driver
depresses the brake pedal to avoid
collision.
• Depending on the road and driving
conditions, Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist may warn the driver
late or may not warn the driver.
• During Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist operation, the vehicle may
stop suddenly injuring passengers
and shifting loose objects. Always
have the seat belt on and keep loose
objects secured.
• If any other system’s warning
message is displayed or audible
warning is generated, Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist warning
message may not be displayed
and audible warning may not be
generated.
• You may not hear the warning sound
of Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist if the surroundings are noisy.
• Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist may turn off or may not
operate properly or may operate
unnecessarily depending on the road
conditions and the surroundings. WARNING
• Even if there is a problem with
Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist, the vehicle’s basic braking
performance will operate normally.
• During emergency braking, braking
control by Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist will automatically
cancel when the driver excessively
depresses the accelerator pedal or
sharply steers the vehicle.
CAUTION
Depending on the condition of the
vehicle, pedestrian and cyclist in front
and the surroundings, the speed range
to operate Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist may reduce. Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist may only warn the
driver, or it may not operate.
Information
• In a situation where collision is
imminent, braking may be assisted by
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
when braking is insufficient by the
driver.
• The images and colors in the
instrument cluster may differ
depending on the cluster type or theme
selected from the instrument cluster.

OADAS002OADAS002OADAS063OADAS063
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
may not detect other vehicles
or pedestrians 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.
When driving on a curved road,
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.
OADAS006OADAS006

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.
