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.

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.
