driver that a collision is imminent with a warning message and an audible warning,
and if necessary, apply emergency braking.

Refer to the picture above for the detailed location of the detecting sensors.
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 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. Any light reflection may prevent Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist from functioning properly.
- Do not place any objects near the front windshield or install any
accessories on the front windshield. 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.
- 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 be 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.
