Rear parking assist system
precautions
• The rear parking assist system
may not sound sequentially
depending on the speed and
shapes of the objects detected.
• The rear parking assist system may
malfunction if the vehicle bumper
height or sensor installation has
been modified or damaged. Any
non-factory installed equipment or
accessories may also interfere with
the sensor performance.
• The sensor may not recognize
objects less than 30 cm (11 in.)
from the sensor, or it may sense an
incorrect distance. Use caution.
• When the sensor is frozen or
stained with snow, dirt, or water,
the sensor may be inoperative until
the stains are removed using a soft
cloth.
• Do not push, scratch or strike 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,
such as poles or objects located
between sensors may not be detected
by the sensors.
Always visually check behind the
vehicle when backing up.
Be sure to inform any drivers of the
vehicle that may be unfamiliar with
the system regarding the systems
capabilities and limitations.WARNING
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 object’s
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.

Self-diagnosis
If you don’t 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 in the rear
parking assist system. If this occurs,
we recommend that the system be
checked by a HYUNDAI authorised
repairer as soon as possible.
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 assists
the driver during movement of the
vehicle by chiming if any object is
sensed within the distance of 60 cm
(24 in.) (Type A) or 100 cm (39.4 in.)
(Type B) in front and 120 cm (47 in.)
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. Whenever moving pay as much
attention to what is in front and
behind of you as you would in a vehi-
cle without a parking assist system.

WARNING
The parking assist system
should only be considered as a
supplementary function. The
driver must check the front and
rear view. The operational func-
tion of the parking assist sys-
tem can be affected by many
factors and conditions of the
surroundings, so the responsi-
bility rests always with the driv-
er.

Operation of the parking
assist system
Operating condition
• This system activates when the
parking assist system button is
pressed with the ignition switch
ON.
• The indicator of the parking assist
system button turns on automati-
cally and activates the parking
assist system when you shift the
gear to the R (Reverse) position or
press the SPAS button. It will turn
off automatically when you drive
above 24.8 mph (40 km/h). (If
equipped with SPAS)
• If the vehicle speed is above 6.2
mph (10km/h), the parking assist
system will not operate.
• The sensing distance whilst back-
ing up is approximately 120 cm (47
in.) when you are driving less than
6.2 mph (10 km/h).
• The side sensors are activated
when you shift the gear to the R
(Reverse) position.• The sensing distance whilst mov-
ing forward is approximately 60 cm
(24 in.) (Type A) or 100 cm (39.4
in.) (Type B) when you are driving
less than 6.2 mph (10 km/h).
• When more than two objects are
sensed at the same time, the clos-
est one will be recognized first.
✽NOTICE
It may not operate if it’s distance
from the object is already less than
approximately 25 cm (7.9 in.) when
the system is ON.

Non-operational conditions of
parking assist system
Parking assist system may not
operate normally when:
1. Moisture is frozen to the sensor. (It
will operate normally when mois-
ture melts.)
2. Sensor is covered with foreign
matter, 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
motorcycle engines, or truck air
brakes can interfere with the sen-
sor.
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 and narrower than 14 cm 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.
