Hyundai Head-Up Display (HUD) Guide
A head-up display puts key driving information on the windshield in your line of sight. This guide follows the 2027 Palisade owner's manual and Hyundai's online infotainment manual (ccNC, USA), both read November 8, 2026: what the HUD can show, how to turn it on, how to adjust and personalize it, and what the manual says to do when it is hard to read. The HUD is available only on equipped vehicles, and settings can differ by model and specifications.

How do I turn on the Hyundai head-up display?

Then use Adjust Display to set the height, rotation and brightness, and Content Selection to choose what appears. Settings can differ by model and specifications.
What the Hyundai head-up display is
The 2027 Palisade owner's manual describes the HUD as an optional feature that projects information onto a transparent screen so the driver can view it while keeping their eyes on the road ahead. The manual marks it "if equipped", so not every Hyundai or every trim has one.
Hyundai's Hyundai infotainment (ccNC, USA) online manual describes the head-up display as showing information such as driving speed and road-related information while driving, and notes that available settings may differ depending on the vehicle model and specifications.
What the HUD can show
| Item on the HUD | Note from the manual |
|---|---|
| Turn-by-turn (TBT) navigation | Listed |
| Traffic signs or speed limit | Listed |
| Surrounding vehicle | If equipped |
| Lane Safety | Listed |
| Highway Driving Assist | If equipped |
| Highway Auto Speed Change | If equipped |
| Smart Cruise Control set speed | Listed |

| Lane Following Assist | Listed |
| Blind-Spot Safety | The manual warns the Blind-Spot Safety warning on the HUD is supplemental: do not depend on it alone to change lanes, and always look around first |
From HUD Information in the 2027 Palisade owner's manual, read November 8, 2026 (manual PDF link checked that day). Other models and model years can show different items.
The same manual says the operation status of the driver assistance system also appears on the head-up display (if equipped), and that the HUD illuminates as one of the ways Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist warns the driver.
How to turn the head-up display on
Both manuals give the same menu path in the infotainment system:
- Stop the vehicle first. The owner's manual says to make sure the vehicle is stopped before adjusting the settings.
- On the Home screen, press Setup > Cluster/Head-Up Display.
- Under Head-Up Display, select Enable Head-Up Display.
After the HUD is on, the owner's manual says you can change its Adjust Display and Content Selection settings. It also notes that the infotainment system may change after software updates, so menu names can differ on your vehicle.

The Hyundai infotainment (ccNC, USA) online manual lists these head-up display settings under Setup > Cluster/Head-Up Display > Head-Up Display:

HUD position and the driver memory system
On vehicles with the Integrated Memory System (IMS), the 2027 Palisade owner's manual lists the head-up display position (if equipped) as one of the settings stored and recalled with the memory buttons, along with the driver's seat position and side view mirror position.
The manual adds that the memory settings are erased if the battery is disconnected, and warns never to operate the IMS while the vehicle is moving. If the IMS does not work normally, it says to contact an authorized Hyundai dealer.

Windshield, tint and dashboard precautions
The 2027 Palisade owner's manual lists these precautions for vehicles with a HUD:
- Do not tint the front windshield glass or add other types of metallic coating.
- Do not place accessories on the dashboard or attach objects to the windshield glass.
- When the front windshield is replaced, use windshield glass designed for HUD operation. Otherwise, the manual says, duplicated images may be displayed on the windshield glass.
If your HUD image looks doubled after glass work, or the display does not come on with the setting enabled, our service team can take a look.
