Driving your vehicle
Limitations of the system
The Forward Collision avoidance
assist (FCA) system is designed to
monitor the vehicle ahead or a
pedestrian or cyclist in the roadway
through front view camera and radar
signals recognition to warn the driver
that a collision is imminent, and if
necessary, apply emergency braking.
In certain situations, the front view
camera or the front radar sensor may
not be able to detect the vehicle,
pedestrian or cyclist ahead. In these
cases, the FCA system may not oper-
ate normally. The driver must pay
careful attention in the following situ-
ations where the FCA operation may
be limited.
Detecting vehicles
The sensor may be limited when:
• The system may not operate for 15
seconds after the vehicle is started
or the front view camera is initial-
ized
• The front view camera or front
radar sensor is covered with a for-
eign object or debris
• The front view camera lens is con-
taminated due to tinted, filmed or
coated windshield, damaged
glass, or stuck of foreign matter
(sticker, bug, etc.) on the glass
• Inclement weather such as heavy
rain or snow obscures the field of
view of the front view camera or
front radar sensor
• There is interference by electro-
magnetic waves
• There is severe irregular reflection
from the front radar sensor
• The front view camera/front radar
sensor recognition is limited
• The vehicle in front is too small to
be detected (for example a motor-
cycle etc.)
(Continued)
• The FCA system does not
detect vehicles in the oppo-
site lane.
• The FCA system does not
detect cross traffic vehicles
that are approaching.
• The FCA system cannot
detect vehicles that are
stopped vertically to your
vehicle at a intersection or
dead end street.
• The FCA system cannot
detect the cross traffic cyclist
that are approaching.
In these cases, you must main-
tain a safe braking distance,
and if necessary, depress the
brake pedal to reduce the driv-
ing speed in order to maintain a
safe distance or to stop the
vehicle.
