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.

07
7-23
• 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.
• Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
will operate under certain conditions
by judging the risk level based on
the condition of the oncoming
vehicle, driving direction, speed and
surroundings.
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.

When Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist is not working properly, the ‘Check
forward safety systems’ warning message
will appear, and the
and warning
lights will illuminate on the cluster. Have

OTM070093NOTM070093N
OTM070095NOTM070095N
When the front windshield where the
front view camera is located, front radar
Cover, or 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 systems
disabled. Camera obscured’ or the
‘Forward Safety system disabled. Radar
blocked’ warning message, and the

and warning lights will illuminate on
the cluster.
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist will
operate normally when 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
(for example, open terrain), where
any substance are not detected after
turning ON the engine.
• If the engine is turned off and
restarted while the camera is
blocked or malfunctioned, the
condition is maintained. Therefore,
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
may not operate properly.

Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist may not detect the vehicle,
pedestrian or cyclist 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.

Driver Assistance System7-28
OADAS015OADAS015
OADAS017OADAS017OADAS019OADAS019
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 an inclined road
OADAS012OADAS012
OADAS010OADAS010OADAS011OADAS011
Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist may not detect the vehicle,
pedestrian or cyclist in front of you
while driving uphill or downhill
adversely affecting the performance
of the sensors.
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 your vehicle and
depress the brake pedal to reduce
your driving speed in order to
maintain a safe distance.

• Changing lanes
OADAS030OADAS030[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 your vehicle
and depress the brake pedal to
reduce your driving speed in order to
maintain a safe distance.
OADAS031OADAS031[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 your
vehicle and depress the brake pedal
to reduce your driving speed in order
to maintain a safe distance.

• Detecting vehicle
ONX4070008ONX4070008
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 your 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, turn off Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist for 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.
