2016 Hyundai Elantra brake sensor

Safety features of your vehicle
• Just before impact, drivers often
brake heavily. Such heavy braking
lowers the front portion of the vehi-
cle causing it to “travel” under a
vehicle with a higher ground clear-
ance. Air bags may not inflate in
this "under-travel" situation
because deceleration forces that
are detected by sensors may be
significantly reduced by such
“under-travel” collisions.• Air bags do not inflate in rollover
accidents as rollover accidents
cannot be detected.
However, side and/or curtain air
bags may inflate when the vehicle
is rolled over after a side impact
collision.• Air bags may not inflate if the vehi-
cle collides with objects such as
utility poles or trees, where the
point of impact is concentrated and
the collision energy is absorbed by
the vehicle structure.

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.
