Hyundai Elantra: Rear Cross-traffic Collision Warning (RCCW) System / Warning and system control

Rear Cross-Traffic Collision Warning (RCCW) system

If the vehicle detected by the sensors approaches from the rear left/right side of your vehicle, the warning chime will sound, the warning light on the outside rearview mirror will blink and a warning will appear on the LCD display. If the rear view monitor system is in activation, a warning will also appear on the audio or AVN screen.

The warning will stop when:

- the detected vehicle moves out of the sensing area or
- when the vehicle is right behind your vehicle or
- when the vehicle is not approaching your vehicle or
- when the other vehicle slows down.

CAUTION

• When the operation condition of the Rear Cross-Traffic Collision Warning system is satisfied, the warning will occur every time a vehicle approaches the side or rear of your stopped (0 mph vehicle speed) vehicle.
• The system's warning may not operate properly if the left or right of your vehicle's rear bumper is blocked by a vehicle or obstacle.
• Always pay attention to road and traffic conditions while driving, whether or not the warning light on the outside rearview mirror illuminates or there is a warning alarm.
• Playing the vehicle audio system at high volume may prevent occupants from hearing the system's warning sounds.
• If any other warning sound such as seat belt warning chime is already generated, the Rear Cross-Traffic Collision Warning system warning may not sound.

WARNING

• Drive safely even though the vehicle is equipped with a Rear Cross-Traffic Collision Warning system. Do not solely rely on the system but check your surrounding when backing the vehicle up.
• The driver is responsible for accurate brake control.
• Always pay extreme caution while driving. The Rear Cross- Traffic Collision Warning system may not operate properly or unnecessarily operate depending on traffic and driving conditions.
• The Rear Cross-Traffic Collision Warning system is not a substitute for safe driving practices, but a convenience function only. It is the responsibility of the driver to always drive cautiously to prevent unexpected and sudden situations from occurring. Pay attention to the road conditions at all times.
