B260D01A-AAT Turn Signal Indicator Lights
The blinking green arrows on the instru- ment panel show the direction indicatedby the turn signals. If the arrow comes on but does not blink, blinks more rapidly than normal, or does not illumi-nate at all, a malfunction in the turn signal system is indicated. Your dealer should be consulted for repairs.

REAR PARKING ASSIST SYSTEM
C400A03P-GAT (If Installed) The rear parking assist system assists the driver during backward movementof the vehicle by chiming if any object is sensed within a distance of 120 cm (47 in.) behind the vehicle. This systemis a supplemental system and it is not intended to nor does it replace the need for extreme care and attention of thedriver. The sensing range and objects detectable by the back sensors are limited. Whenever backing-up, pay asmuch attention to what is behind you as you would in a vehicle without a rear parking assist system. OMC025109
WARNING:
The Rear Parking Assist System is asupplementary function only. Theoperation of the Rear Parking Assist System can be affected by several factors (including environmental con-ditions). It is the responsibility of the driver to always check the area be- hind the vehicle before backing up.
Sensor Operation of the rear parking assist system Operating condition
o This system will activate when back-ing up with the ignition key ON.If the vehicle is moving at a speedover 5 km/h (3 mph), the system may not be activated correctly.
o The sensing distance while the Rear
Parking Assist System is in opera-tion is approximately 120 cm (47 in.).
o When more than two objects are
sensed at the same time, the closestone will be recognized first.
!WARNING:
o The Vehicle Stability Management system is only a driving aid; all normal precautions for driving in inclement weather and on slip- pery road surfaces should be ob-served.
o The Vehicle Stability Management
system is not a substitute for safedriving practices but a supplemen- tary function only. Always hold the steering wheel firmly while driving.
o Driving with varying tire or wheel
sizes may cause the VSM systemto malfunction. When replacing tires, make sure they are the samesize as your original tires.

Non-operational conditions of rear parking assist system The rear parking assist 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 rear parking assist warning may not sound sequentially de- pending on the speed and shapes of the objects detected.
2. The rear parking assist system may malfunction if the vehiclebumper height or sensor installa-tion has been modified or dam- aged. Any non-factory installed equipment or accessories mayalso interfere with the sensor per- formance.
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 until the 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 topull 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 arear parking assist system malfunc- tion. Always drive safely and cau- tiously.
! 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 rear parking as-sist system. If this occurs, have your vehicle checked by an authorized Hyundai dealer as soon as possible.

JUMP STARTING
WARNING:
The gas produced by the battery during the jump-start operation ishighly explosive. If these instruc- tions are not followed exactly, seri- ous personal injury and damage tothe vehicle may occur! If you are not sure how to follow this proce- dure, seek qualified assistance.Automobile batteries contain sul- furic acid. This is poisonous and highly corrosive. When jump start-ing, wear protective glasses and be careful not to get acid on yourself, your clothing or on the car. 1. If the booster battery is installed in
another vehicle, be sure the twovehicles are not touching.
2. Turn off all unnecessary lights and
accessories in both vehicles.
3. Attach the clamps of the jumper cable in the exact order shown in theillustration. That is, first, attach oneclamp of the jumper cable to the positive (+) post or cable of the discharged battery. Then attach theother end of the same cable to the positive (+) post or cable of the booster battery. Next, using theother cable, attach one clamp to the negative (-) post or cable of the booster battery. Then attach theother end of that cable to a solid metal part of the engine away from the battery. Do not connect the cableto any moving part.
4. Start the engine in the car with the
booster battery and let it run for afew minutes. This will help to as- sure that the booster battery is fully charged. During the jumping opera-tion, run the engine in this vehicle at about 2,000 rpm.
