Center (AUTO, 3):
The mirror will fold or unfold auto-
matically as follows:
The mirror will fold or unfold when the door is locked or unlocked by
the smart key.
The mirror will fold or unfold when the door is locked or unlocked by the
button on the outside door handle.
The mirror will unfold when you approach the vehicle (all doors
closed and locked) with a smart
key in possession.Electric chromic mirror (ECM)
The electric chromic mirror automati-
cally controls the glare from the head-
lights of the car behind you in night-
time or low light driving conditions. The
sensor mounted in the mirror senses
the light level around the vehicle, and
automatically controls the headlight
glare from vehicles behind you.
When the engine is running, the glare
is automatically controlled by the sen-
sor mounted in the rearview mirror.
Whenever the shift lever is shifted
into R (Reverse), the mirror will auto-
matically go to the brightest setting in
order to improve the drivers view
behind the vehicle. If the ECM of
inside rear view mirror operates, it
will be working.
Electric type outside
rearview mirror
The electric type outside rearview
mirror operates even though the
engine start/stopo button is in the
OFF position. However, to prevent
unnecessary battery discharge,
do not adjust the mirrors longer
than necessary while the engine
is not running.
In case it is an electric type out-
side rearview mirror, don’t fold it
by hand. It could cause motor
failure.
CAUTION
When cleaning the mirror, use a
paper towel or similar material
dampened with glass cleaner.
Do not spray glass cleaner
directly on the mirror as that
may cause the liquid cleaner to
enter the mirror housing.
CAUTION

The Parking Assist System is not a
substitute for proper and safe parking
and backing-up procedures. Always
drive safely and use caution when
parking. The Parking Assist System
may not detect every object behind or
in front of the vehicle.The parking assist system assists the
driver during movement of the vehicle
by chiming if any object is sensed
within the distance of 100 cm (39 in)
in front or behind the vehicle.
This system is a supplemental sys-
tem and it is not intended to nor does
it replace the need for extreme care
and attention of the driver.
The sensing range and objects
detectable by the sensors are limit-
ed. When the vehicle moving, pay
attention to your surroundings.
Operation of the parking
assist system
Operating condition
This system activates when the
parking assist button is pressed with
the Engine Start/Stop Button ON.
The parking assist button turns on automatically and activates the

Parking assist system
Never rely solely on the parking
assist system. Always perform
a visual inspection to make
sure the vehicle is clear of all
obstructions before moving the
vehicle in any direction. Stop
immediately if you are aware of
a child anywhere near your
vehicle. Some objects may not
be detected by the sensors, due
to the object's size or material.

The sensing distance while backingup is approximately 100 cm (39 in.)
when you are driving less than 10
km/h (6.2 mph).
The sensing distance while moving forward is approximately 100 cm
(39 in.) when you are driving less
than 10 km/h (6.2 mph).
When more than two objects are sensed at the same time, the clos-
est one will be recognized first.
✽ NOTICE
The system may not detect and
object if the distance from the object
is already less than approximately
25 cm (10 in.) when the system is
turned ON.
Types of warning sound and indicator

Non-operational conditions of
parking assist system
Parking assist system may notoperate normally when:
1.Moisture is frozen to the sensor. (It will operate normally when mois-
ture melts.)
2.Sensor is covered with foreign mat- ter, such as snow or water, or the
sensor cover is blocked. (It will
operate normally when the materi-
al is removed or the sensor is no
longer blocked.)
3.Sensor is stained with foreign mat- ter such as snow or water.
(Sensing range will return to nor-
mal when removed.)
4.The parking assist button is off.
There is a possibility of parking assist system malfunction when:
1.Driving on uneven road surfaces such as unpaved roads, gravel,
bumps, or gradient.
2.Objects generating excessive noise such as vehicle horns, loud motor-
cycle engines, or truck air brakes
can interfere with the sensor.
3.Heavy rain or water spray.
4.Wireless transmitters or mobile phones present near the sensor.
5.Sensor is covered with snow.
Detecting range may decrease when:
1.Outside air temperature is extremely hot or cold.
2.Undetectable objects smaller than 1 m (39 in) and narrower than
14 cm (5.5 in) in diameter.
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 sen- sor frequency such as clothes,
spongy material or snow.

✽NOTICE
1.The warning may not sound
sequentially depending on the
speed and shapes of the objects
detected.
2. The parking assist system may malfunction if the vehicle bumper
height or sensor installation has
been modified. Any non-factory
installed equipment or accessories
may also interfere with the sensor
performance.
3. Sensor may not recognize objects less than 30 cm (12 in) from the
sensor, or it may sense an incor-
rect distance. Use with caution.
4.When the sensor is frozen or stained with snow 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 with any hard objects that
could damage the surface of the
sensor. Sensor damage could
occur.
✽ NOTICE
This system can only sense objects
within the range and location of the
sensors, it can not detect objects in
other areas where sensors are not
installed. Also, small or slim objects,
or objects located between sensors
may not be detected.
Always visually check in front and
behind the vehicle when driving.
Be sure to inform any drivers in the
vehicle that may be unfamiliar with
the system regarding the system’s
capabilities and limitations.
Pay close attention when the
vehicle is driven close to
objects on the road, particularly
pedestrians, and especially
children. Be aware that some
objects may not be detected by
the sensors, due to the objects
distance, size or material, all of
which can limit the effective-
ness of the sensor. Always per-
form a visual inspection to
make sure the vehicle is clear of
all obstructions before moving
the vehicle in any direction.
