Hyundai Santa Cruz: Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist (RCCA) / Rear Cross-Traffic Collision- Avoidance Assist Malfunction and Limitations

Rear Cross-Traffic Collision- Avoidance Assist malfunction

When Rear Cross-Traffic Collision- Avoidance Assist is not working properly, the ‘Check Rear Cross-Traffic Safety system’ warning message will appear on the cluster for several seconds, and the master () warning light will illuminate on the cluster. If this occurs, have the vehicle inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

When the side view mirror warning light is not working properly, the ‘Check side view mirror warning light’ warning message will appear on the cluster for several seconds, and the master () warning light will illuminate on the cluster. If this occurs, have the vehicle inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

Rear Cross-Traffic Collision- Avoidance Assist disabled

When the rear bumper around the rearside radar or sensor is covered with foreign material, such as snow or rain, or installing a trailer or carrier, it can reduce the detecting performance and temporarily limit or disable Rear Cross- Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist.

If this occurs, the ‘Rear Cross-Traffic Safety system disabled. Radar blocked’ warning message appears on the cluster.

Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist will operate properly when such foreign material or trailer, etc., is removed.

If Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist does not operate properly after it is removed, have the vehicle inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

WARNING

• Even though the warning message does not appear on the cluster, Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist may not operate properly.
• Rear Cross-Traffic Collision- Avoidance Assist may not operate properly in an area (for example, open terrain), where any objects are not detected after turning ON the engine.

CAUTION

Turn off Rear Cross-Traffic Collision- Avoidance Assist to install or remove a trailer, carrier, or another attachment. Turn on Rear Cross-Traffic Collision- Avoidance Assist when finished.

WARNING

• Driving near a vehicle or structure

[A] : Structure

Rear Cross-Traffic Collision- Avoidance Assist may be limited when driving near a vehicle or structure, and may not detect the vehicle approaching from the left or right. If this occurs, the function may not warn the driver or control the brakes when necessary.

Always check your surroundings while backing up.

• When the vehicle is in a complex parking environment

Rear Cross-Traffic Collision- Avoidance Assist may detect vehicles which are parking or pulling out near your vehicle (for example, a vehicle leaving beside your vehicle, a vehicle parking or pulling out in the rear area, a vehicle approaching your vehicle making a turn, etc.). If this occurs, the function may unnecessarily warn the driver and control the brake.

Always check your surroundings while backing up.

• When the vehicle is parked diagonally

[A] : Vehicle

Rear Cross-Traffic Collision- Avoidance Assist may be limited when backing up diagonally, and may not detect the vehicle approaching from the left or right. If this occurs, the function may not warn the driver or control the brakes when necessary.

Always check your surroundings while backing up.

• When the vehicle is on or near a slope

Rear Cross-Traffic Collision- Avoidance Assist may be limited when the vehicle is on a uphill or downhill slope, or near it, and may not detect the vehicle approaching from the left or right. If this occurs, the function may not warn the driver or control the brakes when necessary.

Always check your surroundings while backing up.

• Pulling into the parking space where there is a structure

[A] : Structure, [B] : Wall

Rear Cross-Traffic Collision- Avoidance Assist may detect vehicles passing by in front of you when parking in reverse into a parking space with a wall or structure in the rear or side area. If this occurs, the function may unnecessarily warn the driver and control the brake.

Always check your surroundings while backing up.

• When the vehicle is parked rearward

Rear Cross-Traffic Collision- Avoidance Assist may detect vehicles passing by behind you when parking in reverse into a parking space. If this occurs, the function may unnecessarily warn the driver and control the brake.

Always check your surroundings while backing up.
