Hyundai Venue: Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) System-Sensor Fusion / System Setting and Activation

System setting

• Setting Forward Safety function

The driver can activate FCA by placing the ignition switch to the ON position and by selecting:

‘User Settings → Driver Assistance → Forward Safety’

-- If you select “Active Assist”, FCA system activates. FCA produces warning messages and warning alarms in accordance with the collision risk levels. Braking assist will be applied in accordance with the collision risk.
-- If you select ‘Warning Only’, FCA system activates and produces only warning alarms in accordance with the collision risk levels. Braking assist will not be applied in this setting.
-- If you select ‘Off’, FCA system deactivates.

The warning light illuminates on the LCD display, when you cancel FCA system.

The driver can monitor FCA ON/OFF status on the LCD display. Also, the warning light illuminates when the ESC (Electronic Stability Control) is turned off. If the warning light remains ON when FCA is activated, we recommend that you have the system checked by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

• Setting Warning Timing

The driver can select the initial warning activation time on the LCD display.

Go to the ‘User Settings → Driver Assistance → Warning Timing → Normal/Late’.

The options for the initial Forward Collision Warning includes the following:

-- Normal:

When this option is selected, the initial Forward Collision Warning is activated sensitively. If you feel the warning activates too early, set the Forward Collision Warning to ‘Late’. Even though, ‘Normal’ is selected if the front vehicle suddenly stops the initial warning activation time may not seem fast.

-- Late:

When this option is selected, the initial Forward Collision Warning is activated later than normal. This setting reduces the amount of distance between the vehicle ahead before the initial warning occurs. Select ‘Late’ when traffic is light and when driving speed is slow.

Information

If you change the warning timing, the warning time of other systems may change. Always be aware before changing the warning timing.

Prerequisite for activation
