Types of warning sound and indicator
•The indicator may differ from the
illustration depending on
objects or sensor status. If the
indicator blinks, we recommend
that you have your vehicle
checked by an authorised
HYUNDAI dealer.
•If the audible warning does not
sound or if the buzzer sounds
intermittently when shifting into
R (Reverse) position, this may
indicate a malfunction with the
Parking Assist System. If this
occurs, we recommend that you
have your vehicle checked by an
authorised HYUNDAI dealer as
soon as possible.
Non-operational conditions of
Parking Assist System
The Rear Parking Assist System
may not operate normally when:
•Moisture is frozen to the sensor.
•The sensor is covered with dirt or
debris such as snow or ice, or the
sensor cover is blocked.
There is a possibility of Rear
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 motor-
cycle engines, or truck air brakes
can interfere with the sensor.
•Heavy rain or water spray is present.
•Wireless transmitters or mobile
phones are present near the sensor.
•The sensor is covered with snow.
•Any non-factory equipment or acces-
sories have been installed, or if the
vehicle bumper height or sensor
installation has been modified.

Detecting range may decrease when:
•Outside air temperature is extreme-
ly hot or cold.
•Objects are smaller than 1 m and
narrower than 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.
Rear parking assist system
precautions
•The rear parking assist system
may not operate consistently in
some circumstances depending on
the speed of the vehicle and the
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 recognise
objects less than 40 cm from the
sensor, or it may sense an incor-
rect distance. Use caution.
•When the sensor is blocked with
snow, dirt, debris, or ice, the rear
parking assist system may be inop-
erative until the snow or ice melts,
or the debris is removed. Use a
soft cloth to wipe debris away from
the sensor.
•Do not push, scratch or strike the
sensor with any hard objects that
could damage the surface of the
sensor. Sensor damage could occur.
•Do not spray the sensors or its sur-
rounding area directly with a high
pressure washer. Doing so may
cause the sensors to fail to operate
normally.
Yo u r n e w v e h i c l e w a r r a n t y d o e s
not cover any accidents or dam-
age to the vehicle or injuries to
its occupants related to a Rear
Parking Assist System. 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 approximately 100 cm
in front and 120 cm behind the vehi-
cle.
This system 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.
Operation of the Parking Assist
System
Operating condition
•This system will activate when the
Par king Assist System button is
pressed with the engine running.

•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 visible on the
screen or be detected by the
sensors, due to the objects
distance, size or material, all
of which can limit the effec-
tiveness of the sensor.

Key ignition switch
Whenever the front door is opened,
the ignition switch will illuminate, pro-
vided the ignition switch is not in the
ON position. The light will go off
immediately when the ignition switch
(if equipped) is turned on or go off
after about 30 seconds when the
door is closed.

•NEVER turn the ignition switch
to the LOCK or ACC position
whilst the vehicle is in motion
except in an emergency. This
will result in the engine turning
off and loss of power assist for
the steering and brake sys-
tems. This may lead to loss of
directional control and braking
function, which could cause
an accident.

•Before leaving the driver's
seat, always make sure the
shift lever is in 1stgear (for
manual transmission vehicle)
or P (Park, for automatic trans-
mission) position, apply the
parking brake, and turn the
ignition switch to the LOCK
position.
Unexpected vehicle move-
ment may occur if these pre-
cautions are not followed.OAD055082L
