Limitation of the system
The FCA is an assistant system for a
driver in a certain risky driving condi-
tion and it does not take every
responsibility for all risks from driving
condition.
The FCA monitors the driving situa-
tions through the radar and the cam-
era sensor. Thus, for a situation out
of the sensing range, the FCA may
not normally operate. The driver
should pay great caution in the fol-
lowing situations. The FCA operation
may be limited.

taminated with foreign substances.
