 Just before impact, drivers often brake
heavily. Such heavy braking lowers the 
front portion of the vehicle causing it to
“ride” under a vehicle with a higher
ground clearance. Air bags may not
inflate in this "under-ride" situation
because deceleration forces that are
detected by sensors may be signifi-
cantly replaced by such “under-ride”
collisions.  Air bags may not inflate in rollover acci-
dents because air bag deployment
could not provide protection to the
occupants.
However, side and/or curtain air bags may inflate when the vehicle is rolled
over by a side impact collision, if the
vehicle is equipped with side air bags
and curtain air bags.  Air bags may not inflate if the vehicle
collides with objects such as utility
poles or trees, where the point of
impact is concentrated to one area and
the full force of the impact is not deliv-
ered to the sensors.

Features of your vehicle
The smart parking assist system allows 
you to park the vehicle to search a space
by sensors. This system is a supplemen-
tal system that shows message and
gives auditory warning by controlling the
steering wheel. 
The sensing range and objects 
detectable by the sensors are limited.
Whenever moving pay as much attention
to what is in front and behind of you as
you would in a vehicle without a parkingassist system. 
The rear parallel parking is only possible 
in this smart parking assist system. 
Use this smart parking assist system in 
parking lot or parking space.If there are no vehicles in front of space
that you want to park the vehicle, the
smart parking assist system is not sup-
ported. Also the diagonal line parking is
not supported. 
After parking the vehicle, the parking sit- 
uation may be not desired parking posi-
tion by arrangement situation between
vehicle and vehicle or between wall and
vehicle. 
By necessity, turn off the smart parking 
assist system and park the vehicle by
manual parking. 
If you select this system, the warning 
sound always let you know whether there
are the objects or not by distance with
operating the front/rear parking assistsystem. 
While operating this system, if you turn 
off the front/rear parking assist system
after searching parking space, the smart
parking assist system is also turned off.

WARNING
 The smart parking assist system can not be operated normally by 
surround situations and other
conditions. The driver alwaysneeds to confirm the objects. 
This system is for parking assist, do not depend on this system
only. By surrounding conditions,
park the vehicle carefully and
safely like applying the brakepedal.
 If the vehicle is necessary to con- trol wheel alignment, this system
is not operated normally. We rec-ommend that the system be
checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.

According to parking space, select 
mode, and surrounding environment, the
sequence of display or situation could be
changed. Refer to next operation way.(Continued) 
7. If there is an object in parking space
Even if there are barriers, the smart 
parking assist system may detect
the parking space. In this case, if
you try to park the vehicle, the acci-
dent may occur. Do not use the
smart parking assist system. 
In any cases, do not depend on the 
smart parking assist system. Take
the necessary action regarding

You may not be able to identify a low 
tire by simply looking at it. Alwaysuse a good quality tire pressuregauge to measure the tire's inflation
pressure. Please note that a tire that
is hot (from being driven) will have ahigher pressure measurement than atire that is cold. 
A cold tire means the vehicle has 
been sitting for 3 hours and driven forless than 1 mile (1.6 km) in that 3
hour period. 
Allow the tire to cool before measur- 
ing the inflation pressure. Always be
sure the tire is cold before inflating to
the recommended pressure.
CAUTION
We recommend that you use the
tire sealant approved byHYUNDAI if your vehicle is equipped with a Tire PressureMonitoring System. The liquidsealant can damage the tire pressure sensors.
WARNING  - Protecting
TPMS
Tampering with, modifying, or 
disabling the Tire PressureMonitoring System (TPMS) com-
ponents may interfere with thesystem's ability to warn the driv-
er of low tire pressure condi-
tions and/or TPMS malfunctions.
Tampering with, modifying, or
disabling the Tire PressureMonitoring System (TPMS) com-
ponents may void the warranty
for that portion of the vehicle.
WARNING - TPMS
 The TPMS cannot alert you to severe and sudden tire dam- 
age caused by external fac-
tors such as nails or roaddebris.
 If you feel any vehicle instabil- ity, immediately take your foot
off the accelerator, apply the
brakes gradually and with
light force, and slowly move to
a safe position off the road.WARNING  - For EUROPE
 Do not modify the vehicle, it may interfere with the TPMS function.
 The wheels on the market do not have a TPMS sensor. 
For your safety, we recom- 
mend that you use parts for
replacement from an author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer.
 If you use the wheels on the market, use a TPMS sensor
approved by a HYUNDAI deal-
er. If your vehicle is not
equipped with a TPMS sensor
or TPMS does not work prop-
erly, you may fail the periodic
vehicle inspection conducted
in your country.
