Hyundai Ioniq (AE): Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) system / System Setting and Activation

System setting

The driver can activate the FCA by placing the Engine Start/Stop button to the ON position and by selecting: 'User Settings → Driver Assistance → Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist'

The FCA deactivates, when the driver deselects the system setting.

The warning light illuminates on the LCD display, when you cancel the FCA system. The driver can monitor the FCA ON/OFF status on the LCD display. Also, the warning light illuminates when the ESC (Electronic Stability Control) is turned off (Traction & Stability control disabled).

If the warning light remains ON when the FCA is activated, have the system checked by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

The driver can select the initial warning activation time on the LCD display. Go to the 'User Settings → Driver Assistance → Forward Collision Warning → Early/Noramal/Late'.

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

• Early:

When this condition is selected, the initial Forward Collision Warning is activated earlier than normal. This setting maximizes the amount of distance between the vehicle or pedestrian ahead before the initial warning occurs.

Even though, 'Early' is selected if the front vehicle suddenly stops the initial warning activation time may not seem fast.

• Normal:

When this condition is selected, the initial Forward Collision Warning is activated normally. This setting allows for a nominal amount of distance between the vehicle or pedestrian ahead before the initial warning occurs.

• Late:

When this condition is selected, the initial Forward Collision Warning is activated later than normal. This setting reduces the amount of distance between the vehicle or pedestrian ahead before the initial warning occurs.

Select 'Late' when traffic is light and when driving speed is slow.

Prerequisite for activation

The FCA system is on and ready when FCA is selected on the LCD display and when the following prerequisites are satisfied:

- The ESC (Electronic Stability Control) is on.
- Driving speed exceeds approximately 6 mph (10 km/h). (The FCA is only activated within a certain speed range.)
- The system detects a pedestrian or a vehicle in front, which may collide with your vehicle. (The FCA may not be activated or may sound a warning alarm in accordance with the driving situation or vehicle condition.)

WARNING

• Completely stop the vehicle on a safe location before operating the switch on the steering wheel to activate/ deactivate the FCA system.
• The FCA automatically activates when the Engine Start/ Stop button is in the ON position. The driver can deactivate the FCA by canceling the system setting on the LCD display.
• If you cancel the ESC (Electronic Stability Control) when the FCA system is turned on, the FCA automatically deactivates and the FCA warning light illuminates. When the ESC is cancelled the FCA cannot be activated on the LCD display. The FCA warning light will illuminate which is normal.
