SURROUND VIEW MONITOR (SVM) (IF EQUIPPED)
ODN8059265ODN8059265
Surround View Monitor system can assist
in parking by allowing the driver to see
around the vehicle.
Operating Conditions
• The engine is running.
• The Surround View Monitor button (1) is pressed (indicator ON).
• The gear status is on D (Drive), N (Neutral), R (Reverse). (On P (Park), it
doesn’t work.)
• Vehicle speed is under 10 mph (15 km/h).
Deactivations
• The Surround View Monitor button (1) is pressed again (indicator OFF).
• Vehicle speed is over 10 mph (15 km/h).
System operation
• When vehicle speed is over 10 mph (15 km/h), the system will turn off. The
system will not automatically turn on
again, even though vehicle speed gets
below 10 mph (15 km/h). Press the
button (1, indicator ON) again, to turn
on the system. • When the vehicle is backing up,
the system will turn ON regardless
of vehicle speed or button status.
However, if vehicle speed is over 10
mph (15 km/h) when driving forward,
Surround View Monitor system will
turn off.
• An indicator on the screen appears when:
- The trunk is opened
- The driver/passenger’s door is opened
- The side view mirror is folded
• When you set up ‘Surround View Monitor Auto On’ on the user setting
menu, you can choose the Surround
View Monitor system to turn on
automatically in case of the parking
alarm sounds.
• If the system is not operating normally, have the vehicle inspected
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
CAUTION
• Surround View Monitor system is
a parking assist system. Because
the images of the four cameras on
the front, rear, left, and right are
synthesized, the SVM view and
parking guidelines may differ from
the actual vehicle location. So, check
all directions for safety.
• Always keep the camera lenses on
the front, rear, left and right clean.
If lenses are covered with foreign
matter, the camera may not operate
normally.

Reverse Parking Collision-Avoidance
Assist (PCA) is a supplemental system
that can warn the driver or apply braking
force to reduce the possibility of collision
with pedestrians when the vehicle is
reversing.
WARNING
• Always look around your vehicle to
make sure there are no objects or
pedestrian before moving the vehicle
in any direction to prevent a collision.
• Do not solely rely on Reverse Parking
Collision-Avoidance Assist system.
The system might not assist the
driver leading to pedestrian injury or
vehicle damage.
• Be aware that some objects may
not be visible on the screen or be
detected by the rear ultrasonic
sensors, due to the objects’ distance,
size or material, all of which can limit
the effectiveness of the sensors.
System Setting and Operation
System setting
Parking Collision-Avoidance Assist-
Reverse (PCA-R) can be activated from
the Settings menu in the LCD display or
infotainment system display by following
the procedure below.
1. Set the Engine Start/Stop button to
the ON or START position.
2. Select ‘User Settings → Driver Assistance → Parking Safety → Active
Assist / Warning Only / Off’ in the
LCD display or infotainment system
display.
- The system is ready for operation when ‘Active Assist’ is selected. In
the event of an imminent collision
with a pedestrian or an object, the
system warns the driver or applies
braking force to help avoid the
collision.
- The system is ready for operation when ‘Warning Only’ is selected. In
the event of an imminent collision
with a pedestrian, the system warns
the driver but does not assist in
braking.
- The system deactivates when ‘Off’ is selected.
REVERSE PARKING COLLISION-AVOIDANCE ASSIST

Convenient Features5-90
Operating conditions
Reverse Parking Collision-Avoidance
Assist system enters the ready status,
when ‘Active Assist’ or ‘Warning Only’ is
selected in the AVN system screen and
the following conditions are satisfied:
• The trunk is closed
• The shift lever is in R (Reverse)
• Vehicle speed is below 6 mph (10 km/h)
• System components such as the rear view camera and the rear ultrasonic
sensors are in normal conditions
The driver needs to select ‘Active Assist’
on the LCD display or infotainment
system display for collision-avoidance
assist.
The solid lines behind the vehicle in the
cluster LCD display indicates that the
system is ready to assist the driver.
Note that the system assists the driver
only once. The driver has to shift the gear
to R (Reverse) from another gear position
to reactivate the system.
The performance of Reverse Parking
Collision-Avoidance Assist system may
vary under certain conditions. If the
vehicle speed exceeds 2 mph (3 km/h),
the system can assist only pedestrian
collision avoidance.
As always, be careful when backing
up your vehicle and be aware of your
surroundings.

wheel vibration, and warnings on
the cluster LCD display and the
infotainment system display.

behind the vehicle, the system may
apply braking power. The driver needs
to pay attention as the brake will
release within 2 seconds. The driver
must immediately depress the brake
pedal and check surroundings.

driving. The driver is responsible for
controlling the brake appropriately.
CAUTION
• Always pay attention to road and
traffic conditions while driving,
whether or not there is a warning.
• Playing the vehicle audio system at
high volume may prevent occupants
from hearing Reverse Parking
Collision-Avoidance Assist system
warning sounds.
• If any other warning sound, such as
seat belt warning chime, is already
generated, Reverse Parking Collision-
Avoidance Assist system warning
may not sound.
Information
The system can detect a pedestrian or an
object when:
• A pedestrian is standing behind the
vehicle.
• A large obstacle, such as a vehicle, is
parked in the rear center of the vehicle.

ODN8A059303ODN8A059303Rear view camera
The rear view camera acquires images
f
or rear pedestrian detection. If the
camera lens is covered with snow, rain,
or a foreign substance, the system may
not work properly. Always keep the
camera lens clean.
Rear ultrasonic sensors
The rear ultrasonic sensors detect
objects. The sensor
s are installed in
the rear bumper. If the rear ultrasonic
sensor(s) is covered with snow, rain, or
a foreign substance, the system may
not work properly. Always keep the rear
bumper clean.
NOTICE
• The system may turn off if interfered
by electromagnetic waves.
• Always keep the rear view camera
and the ultrasonic sensors clean.
• Do not use any cleanser containing
acid or alkaline detergents when
cleaning the rear view camera lens.
Use only a mild soap or neutral
detergent, and rinse thoroughly with
water.
• NEVER disassemble the rear view
camera or the ultrasonic sensor
components or apply any impact
on the rear view camera or the
ultrasonic sensor components.
• Do not apply unnecessary force
on the rear view camera or the
ultrasonic sensors. The system
may not operate properly if the
rear view camera or the ultrasonic
sensor(s) is forcibly moved out of
proper alignment. Have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
• Do not spray the rear view camera
or the ultrasonic sensors or their
surrounding area directly with a high
pressure washer. Shock applied from
high pressure water may cause the
device to malfunction.
• The system may not work properly if
the bumper has been damaged, or if
the rear bumper has been replaced
or repaired.
• Do not apply foreign objects, such as
a bumper sticker or a bumper guard,
near the camera or sensors or apply
paint to the bumper. Doing so may
adversely affect the performance of
the system.
