Non-operational conditions of back warning system The back warning system may not operate properly when: 1. Moisture is frozen to the sensor. (It will operate normally when the mois- ture has been cleared.)
2. The sensor is covered with foreign
matter, such as snow or water, or thesensor cover is blocked. (It will oper- ate normally when the material isremoved or the sensor is no longer blocked.)
3. Driving on uneven road surfaces
(unpaved roads, gravel, bumps, gra-dient).
4. Objects generating excessive noise
(vehicle horns, loud motorcycle en-gines, or truck air brakes) are within range of the sensor. 5. Heavy rain or water spray exists.
6. Wireless transmitters or mobile
phones are within range of the sen- sor.
7. The sensor is covered with snow. 8. Trailer towing The detecting range may decrease when: 1. The sensor is stained with foreign matter such as snow or water. (The sensing range will return to normal when removed.)
2. Outside air temperature is extremely hot or cold.
The following objects may not be recognized by the sensor: 1. Sharp or slim objects such as ropes, chains or small poles.
2. Objects which tend to absorb the sensor frequency such as clothes, spongy material or snow.
3. Undetectable objects smaller than 1 m (40 in.) and narrower than 14 cm (6in.) in diameter. CAUTION:
1. The back warning may not sound sequentially depending on the speed and shapes of the objects detected.
2. The back warning system may malfunction if the vehicle bumperheight or sensor installation hasbeen modified or damaged. Any non-factory installed equipment or accessories may also interferewith the sensor performance.
3. The sensor may not recognize
objects less than 15 in. (40 cm)from the sensor, or it may sense an incorrect distance. Use cau- tion.
4. When the sensor is frozen or stained with snow, dirt, or water,the sensor may be inoperative untilthe stains are removed using a soft cloth.
5. Do not push, scratch or strike the
sensor. Sensor damage couldoccur.

GOOD BRAKING PRACTICES
C130A01A-AAT
WARNING:
Nothing should be carried on top of the shelf panel behind the rear seat. If there were an accident or a sud-den stop, such objects could move forward and cause damage to the vehicle or injure the occupants.
o After being parked, check to be sure the parking brake is not engaged and that the parking brake indicator light is out before driving away.
o Driving through water may get the brakes wet. They can also get wet when the car is washed. Wet brakescan be dangerous! Your car will not stop as quickly if the brakes are wet. Wet brakes may cause the car to
pull to one side. To dry the brakes, apply the brakes lightly until the braking action returns to normal,taking care to keep the car under control at all times. If the braking action does not return to normal,stop as soon as it is safe to do so and call your Hyundai dealer for assistance.
CAUTION:
This system can only sense objectswithin the range and location of thesensors; It can not detect objects in other areas where sensors are not installed. Also, small or slim ob-jects, such as poles or objects lo- cated between sensors may not be detected by the sensors.Always visually check behind the vehicle when backing up. Be sure to inform any drivers of thevehicle that may be unfamiliar with the system regarding the systems capabilities and limitations.Your new vehicle warranty does not cover any accidents or damage to the vehicle or its occupants due to aback warning system malfunction. Always drive safely and cautiously.
! WARNING:
Pay close attention when the vehicle is driven close to objects on the road, particularly pedestrians, and especially children. Be aware thatsome objects may not be detected by the sensors, due to the object’s dis- tance, size or material, all of whichcan limit the effectiveness of the sensor. Always perform a visual inspection to make sure the vehicleis clear of all obstructions before moving the vehicle in any direction. NOTE: If you don’t hear an audible warning sound or if the buzzer sounds inter-mittently when shifting the gear to “R” position, this may indicate a malfunction in the back warning sys-tem. If this occurs, have your vehicle checked by an authorized Hyundai dealer as soon as possible.
