3. OPERATIONS OF PARKING AID SYSTEM(PAS)
1) Alarm interval
Alarm interval and display changes according to the distance as below:
While reversing, if obstacles are within stage 1, the warning beep sounds with long intervals. I
f
within stage 2, the warning beep sounds with short intervals and if within stage 3, the warning
beep sounds continuously.
2) System Trouble Shooting
When the power is applied (gear selector lever is in “R” position), the sensor will be
diagnosed once. If found any failure due to open circuit to sensor or communication error,
warning buzzer sounds for 3 seconds and the data on failed sensor transmits to the instrument
panel to light up the corresponding LED. If normal, the warning buzzer sounds only for 65 ms.
1) Whenever the power is applied, the diagnosis mode is initiated.
2) Sensor failure conditions
(conditions for warning beep due to failure)
(a) Open in sending circuit
(b) Open in receiving circuit
(c) Open in power circuit (+, -)

3) Cautions on parking aid system
Note that the display does not show everything in the rear area.
Always check nobody, especially animals and children, is behind the vehicle.
Normal precautions when reversing should be maintained. *
*
The parking aid system is just a supplemental device to help your parking operation.
Always keep the safety precautions.
Do not press or shock the sensors by hitting or high-pressure water gun while washing, o
r
the sensors will be damaged.
If the system is in normal operating conditions, a short beep sounds when the gear selecto
r
lever is moved into “R” position with the ignition key “ON”.
If the system is in abnormal operating conditions, a beep sounds for 3 seconds when the
gear selector lever is moved into “R” position with the ignition key “ON” or engine
running. However, it is also occurred when the obstacle is within 50 cm from the rea
r
bumper. 1.

(1) The parking aid system will not work or improperly work under
following cases:
▶Certain obstacles that sensors can not detect
- Wires, ropes, chains.
- Cotton, sponge, clothes, snow that absorb ultrasonic waves.
- Obstacles lower than the bumper.
▶Not defective but improperly working
- When the sensing portion is frozen.
- When the sensing portion is covered by rain, water drops, snow or mud.
- When receiving other ultrasonic signals
(metal sound or air braking noises from heavy commercial vehicles).
- When a high-power radio is turned on.
▶Narrowed sensing area
- When the sensing portion is partially covered by snow or mud.

30°C)
▶Not defective but may occur improper working
- When driving on the rough road, gravel road, hill and grass.
- When the bumper height is changed due to the heavy load.
- When the sensing portion is frozen.
- When the sensing portion is covered by rain, water drops, snow or mud.
- When receiving other ultrasonic signals
(metal sound or air braking noises from heavy commercial vehicles).
- When a high-power radio is turned on.
- When some accessories are attached in detecting ranges

4. SENSORS AND ACTUATORS
1) Sun Sensor
It is installed on the upper left end of instrument panel. It is using characteristics that the
amount of current changes according to amount of light on the photosensitive surface. Photo
diode, converts the changes in light intensity into electrical changes, detects the amount of light
coming through windshield and changes it into current and then sends the signal to FATC
controller.
(1) Inspection
Remove the sun sensor and measure the current between terminals under sunlight.
Measure the current again under shade. It is in normal conditions if the measured value is
less than the measured value under sunlight.
Turn the ignition switch to “ON” position.
Measure the voltage to the sun sensor from FATC connector. (approx. 2.5 V under sunlight
and 4.8 V under shade.)
If the voltage value cannot be measured, check the circuit for open. If the measured value is
within the specified range, replace the FATC controller. 1.

2) Active Incar/Humidity Sensor (AIH Sensor)
The AIH sensor is installed at the driver side instrument panel undercover. It is a sensor that
detects interior temperature and humidity.
(1) Location
(2) Functions
Interior temperature sensor
▶
This sensor is a negative temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistor and detects the interio
r
temperature with air coming from senor hole and then sends the voltage value according to the
changed resistance to FATC controller.
Humidity sensor
▶
This sensor detects the interior humidity with humidity cell and then sends the voltage value
according to the changed humidity to FATC controller.

(3) Inspection
If the active incar sensor defect code (DTC 1) and the humidity sensor defect code (DTC 10)
are set, check as below:
Air conditioner controller
Air conditioner controller connector (based on wiring) AIH sensor (based on sensor)
Active incar sensor
▶
Remove the integrated AIH sensor and measure the resistance between terminal No. 5 and
6 on the sensor connector. (standard: approx. 25°C, 2.2 kΩ)
If the measured value is out of the specified range, replace the AIH sensor. If the measured
values are within the specified range, check as below.
Turn the ignition switch to ON position and measure the voltage to active incar sensor from
the FATC controller connector. (standard: approx. 2 V at 25°C)
If the voltage value cannot be measured, check the circuit for open. If the measured value is
within the specified range, replace the FATC controller.

Humidity sensor ▶
Apply 5 V to terminal No. 1 and 3 on the humidity sensor connector.
Connect the positive (+) probe of a tester on No. 2 terminal and the negative (-) probe on
No. 3 terminal, and measure the output voltage while the voltage is applied.
(output voltage: approx. 0.8 ~ 3.4 V)
Check whether the output voltage is changed when blowing into the inlet of the sensor. I
f
there is a voltage change, the sensor is in normal condition. However, if the voltage is not
changed, replace the humidity sensor.
In addition, if the output voltage is extremely high or low even in the specified range, replace
the humidity sensor. 1.
