2016 Hyundai Equus park assist

The parking assist system helps the
driver in parking the vehicle by beep-
ing the buzzer, when any object is
sensed within 39 in (100 cm) from a
vehicle in front or 47 in (120 cm) from
a vehicle behind.
This system is a supplemental sys-
tem, which is not designed to be and
cannot be replaced with driver's
extreme care and attention.
The sensing range and detectable
objects by the sensor is limited.
Whenever parking the vehicle, pay
as much attention to what is in front
of and behind your vehicle, as you
would drive without a parking assist
system.

The parking assist system
should be considered only as a
supplementary function. The
driver must check the front and
rear views. The operational func-
tion of the parking assist system
can be affected by many factors
and surrounding conditions, so
the responsibility should always
be held by the driver.
WARNING

Operation of the Parking
Assist System
Operating conditions
- When the Engine Start/Stop buttonis ON
- When the shift lever is in the D or R position
- When the vehicle speed is below 6 mph (10 km/h)
Press the parking assist system but-
ton to turn the parking assist system
ON. The indicator in the button illumi-
nates.
To turn OFF the system, press the
button again. Then, the indicator
goes OFF. The system will automatically

speed is below 6 mph (10 km/h)
with the system switched ON.
When you move the shift lever to the R position with the system
switched OFF, the indicator will
turn ON and the system will oper-
ate automatically regardless of
button status. However, when the
vehicle speed exceeds 12 mph

Inoperable conditions of the
Parking Assist System
The Parking Assist System maynot properly operate, when:
1. Moisture is frozen over the sensor.
(It will operate normally again
when the frozen ice melts.)
2. The sensor is covered or blocked with foreign substances, such as
snow or water. (It will normally
operate again when the substance
is removed, and the sensor is no
longer blocked.)
3. The sensor is stained with foreign substances such as snow or
water. (The sensing range will
return to normal when foreign sub-
stances are removed.)
There is a possible malfunctionwith the Parking Assist Systemwhen:
1. The vehicle drives on uneven road
surfaces such as unpaved roads,
gravels, bumps, or slopes.
2. The sensor is interfered with objects, which generate excessive
noise, such as horns, motorcycle
engines, or truck air brakes.
3. Heavy rain or water is sprayed.
4. Wireless transmitters or mobile phones are near the sensor.
5. The sensor is covered with snow.
Detecting range may decrease when:
1. Outside air temperature is
extremely hot or cold.
2. The sensor cannot detect an object, as it is smaller than 39 in (1
m) or narrower than 5.5 in (14 cm)
in diameter.
The following objects may notbe recognized by the sensor:
1. A sharp or slim object, such as
ropes, chains or small poles.
2. An object, such as clothes, spongy material or snow, absorbs the sen-
sor frequency.
Information
1. The warning may not soundsequentially 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 is mod-
ified. Any unauthorized installment
of equipment or accessories may
also limit the sensor performance.
3. Sensor may not recognize objects within 12 in (30 cm), or it may mis-
calculate the distance.
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 sensor surface.
This may damage the sensor.

Information
This system can only sense objects
within the certain range and location.
it cannot detect objects in other areas
where sensors are not installed. Also,
the sensor may not detect small and
slim objects, or objects located in
blind spots between sensors.
Always check the presence of any
objects in front of or behind the vehi-
cle with your eyes when parking.
Make sure to inform these system
capabilities and limitations to any
drivers of this vehicle who may be
unfamiliar with the system.
Self-diagnosis
If you do not hear an audible warning
sound or if the buzzer sounds inter-
mittently when shifting the gear to
the R (Reverse) position, this may
indicate a malfunction with the rear
Parking Assist System. In this case,
have your vehicle checked by an
authorized EQUUS dealer as soon
as possible.

Convenient features of your vehiclePay 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 object
distance, size or material, all of
which can limit the effective-
ness of the sensor. Always
make sure that the vehicle
stands clear of all objects with
your eyes before moving the
vehicle in any direction.
WARNING
Your new vehicle warranty does
not cover any accidents or dam-
age to the vehicle or injuries to
its occupants related to the
Parking Assist System. Always
drive safely and cautiously.

Driving your vehicle
Never press the Engine Start/Stop button while the
vehicle is in motion except in
an emergency situation. This
would turn the engine OFF,
resulting in loss of power
assist for the steering wheel
and brake. This may lead to
loss of directional control and
braking function, which could
cause an accident.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Before leaving the driver’sseat, always make sure the
shift gear is engaged in P
(Park), fully set the parking
brake and turn the engine
OFF. Unexpected and sudden
vehicle movement may occur
if these precautions are not
taken.
Never touch the Engine Start/Stop button, or any other
controls on the steering wheel
while the vehicle is in motion.
Reaching out for those con-
trols with your hand or arm
may cause a loss of vehicle
control, an accident, serious
bodily injury or death.
Do not place any loose objects around the driver’s
seat, as they may toss about
while driving, interfering with
the driver's pedal operation
and leading to an accident.
WARNING

A clicking sound may be heardwhile setting or releasing the
EPB. This is a normal condition,
and indicates that the EPB prop-
erly functions.
When leaving your key with a parking lot attendant or valet
assistant, inform him/her of the
EPB operation.
The EPB may malfunction if you drive with the EPB set.
Gradually depress the accelera- tor, when you want to automati-
cally release EPB by depressing
it.
EPB malfunction indicator
This warning light illuminates when
the Engine Start/Stop button is
turned ON and OFF in approximate-
ly 3 seconds, even though the sys-
tem normally operates.
If the EPB malfunction indicator
remains ON, flash, or does not illumi-
nate, when turning ON the Engine
Start/Stop button, this indicates the
malfunction of the EPB.
If this occurs, immediately have your
vehicle checked by an authorized
EQUUS dealer.
The EPB malfunction indicator may
illuminate, when the ESC malfunc-
tion indicator illuminates. In this
case, it does not indicate the EPB
malfunction.
NOTICE
5-21
Driving your vehicle05
To prevent unintentional vehi-cle movement when parking
or after leaving the vehicle, do
not substitute setting of the
parking brake with setting of
the shift lever. Set the parking
brake and secure to position
the shift lever in P(Park).
Never allow anyone, who is unfamiliar with the vehicle, to
touch the EPB switch. If the
EPB is unintentionally
released, serious injury may
occur.
All vehicles must always set the parking brake, while park-
ing, in order to avoid inadver-
tent vehicle movement, which
may injure occupants or
passers-by.
