Driving your vehicle
Good braking practices Wet brakes can be dangerous! The
brakes may get wet if the vehicle is
driven through standing water or if it
is washed. Your vehicle will not stop
as quickly if the brakes are wet. Wet
brakes may cause the vehicle 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
vehicle 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 we recommend that you
call an authorised HYUNDAI dealer
for assistance.
DO NOT drive with your foot resting
on the brake pedal. Even light, but
constant pedal pressure can result in
the brakes overheating, brake wear,
and possibly even brake failure.If a tyre goes flat whilst you are driv-
ing, apply the brakes gently and
keep the vehicle pointed straight
ahead whilst you slow down. When
you are moving slowly enough for it
to be safe to do so, pull off the road
and stop in a safe location.
Keep your foot firmly on the brake
pedal when the vehicle is stopped to
prevent the vehicle from rolling for-
ward.
WARNING
Whenever leaving the vehicle or
parking, always come to a com-
plete stop and continue to press
the brake pedal. Move the shift
lever into the 1st gear (for man-
ual transaxle vehicle) or P (Park,
for automatic transaxle vehicle)
position, then apply the parking
brake, and place the ignition
switch in the LOCK/OFF posi-
tion.
Vehicles with the parking brake
not fully engaged are at risk of
moving inadvertently and caus-
ing injury to yourself or others.

Rear parking assist system
(if equipped )
The Rear Parking Assist System
aids the driver during rearward
movement of the vehicle by chiming
if any object is sensed within the dis-
tance of about 120 cm behind the
vehicle. This is a supplemental sys-
tem that senses objects within the
range and location of the sensors, it
cannot detect objects in other areas
where sensors are not installed.
✽NOTICE
The system may not recognise
objects less than 30 cm from the
sensor, or it may sense an incorrect
distance.

WARNING
• ALWAYS look around your
vehicle to make sure there are
no objects or obstacles
before moving the vehicle in
any direction to prevent a col-
lision.
• Always pay close attention
when the vehicle is driven
close to objects, 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 effec-
tiveness of the sensor.
CAUTION
Do not push, scratch or strike
the sensor with any hard
objects that could damage the
surface of the sensor. Sensor
damage could occur.

Operation of the rear parking
assist system
Operation condition
• This system will activate when
reversing with the engine running.
• Sensing distance when reversing
is approximately 120 cm when you
are driving less than 10 km/h.
• When more than two objects are
sensed at the same time, the clos-
est one will be recognised first.Types of warning indicator and sound
✽NOTICE
• If an object is in between sensors
or close to a sensor, the displayed
indicator may differ from the
above illustration.
• Do not wash the vehicle's sensor
with high pressure water.
When you shift into the R (Reverse)
position and one or more of the
below situation occurs, this may indi-
cate a malfunction with the parking
assist system.
• You don't hear an audible warning
sound or the buzzer sounds inter-
mittently.
If this occurs, we recommend that
the system be checked by an autho-
rised HYUNDAI dealer.

Non-operational conditions of
rear parking assist system
The rear parking assist system
may not operate normally when:
• Moisture is frozen to the sensor.
• The sensor is covered or stained
with foreign material, such as snow
or water, or the sensor cover is
blockeds.
There is a possibility of a parking
assist system malfunction when:
• Driving on uneven road surfaces
such as unpaved roads, gravel,
bumps, or gradients.
• Objects generating excessive
noise such as vehicle horns, loud
motorcycle engines, or truck air
brakes can interfere with the sen-
sor.
• Heavy rain or water spray is pres-
ent.
• Wireless transmitters or mobile
phones are present near the sen-
sor.
• The sensor is covered with snow.• Any non-factory equipment or
accessories have been installed,
or if the vehicle bumper height or
sensor installation has been modi-
fied.
• Trailer towing.
Detecting range may decrease
when:
• Outside air temperature is
extremely hot or cold.
• Undetectable objects smaller than
about 1 m and narrower than about
14 cm in diameter.
The following objects may not be
recognised by the sensor:
• Sharp or slim objects such as
ropes, chains or small poles.
• Objects, which tend to absorb sen-
sor frequency such as clothes,
spongy material or snow.
WARNING
Your new vehicle warranty does
not cover any accidents or dam-
age to the vehicle or injuries to
its occupants due to a rear
parking assist system malfunc-
tion. Always drive safely and
cautiously.

Parking assist system
(if equipped)The Parking Assist System aids the
driver during movement of the vehi-
cle by chiming or displaying the area
if any object is sensed within the dis-
tance of about 100 cm in front or 120
cm behind the vehicle. This is a sup-
plemental system that senses
objects within the range and location
of the sensors. It cannot detect
objects in other areas where sensors
are not installed.
