Reverse Parking Distance
Warning system (if equipped)
The Reverse Parking Distance
Warning system assists the driver
during reverse movement of the vehi-
cle by chiming if any object is sensed
within approximately 120 cm (47 in)
behind the vehicle.
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.

Sensor
ALWAYS look around your
vehicle to make sure there are
not any 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.

Operation of the Reverse
Parking Distance Warning sys-
tem
Operating condition
This system will activate when
backing up with the ignition switch
in the ON position. However, if the
vehicle speed exceeds 5 km/h, the
system may not detect objects.
If the vehicle speed exceeds 10
km/h, the system will not warn you
even though objects are detected.
When more than two objects are
sensed at the same time, the clos-
est one will be recognised first.
Types of warning sound and indicator
The indicator may differ from the
illustration depending on
objects or sensors 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
Reverse Parking Distance
Warning system. If this occurs,
we recommend that you have
your vehicle checked by an
authorised HYUNDAI dealer as
soon as possible.
NOTICE
Types of warning soundIndicator
When an object is approximately
60 to 120 cm (24 to 47 in) from
the rear bumper, the warning
sound beeps intermittently.
When an object is approximately
30 to 60 cm (12 to 24 in) from
the rear bumper, the warning
sound beeps more frequently.
When an object is within approx-
imately 30 cm (12 in) from the
rear bumper, the warning sound
beeps continuously.

Convenient features of your vehicle
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.
Parking Reverse Distance
Warning system precautions
The Reverse Parking Distance
Warning system may not operate
consistently in some circum-
stances depending on the speed of
the vehicle and the shapes of the
objects detected.
The Reverse Parking Distance
Warning system may malfunction if
the vehicle bumper height or sen-
sor 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 30 cm (12 in)
from the sensor, or it may sense an
incorrect distance. Use caution. When the sensor is blocked with
snow, dirt, debris, or ice, the
Reverse Parking Distance Warning
system may be inoperative 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.
Reverse/Forward Parking
Distance Warning system
(if equipped)
The Reverse/Forward Parking
Distance Warning system assists the
driver during movement of the vehicle
by chiming if any object is sensed with-
in approximately 100 cm (40 in) in front
and 120 cm (47 in) behind the vehicle. Your new vehicle warranty does
not cover any accidents or dam-
age to the vehicle or injuries to
its occupants related to a
Reverse Parking Distance
Warning system. Always drive
safely and cautiously.

operate consistently in some cir-
cumstances depending on the
speed of the vehicle and the
shapes of the objects detected.
The Reverse/Forward Parking
Distance Warning system may mal-
function if the vehicle bumper height
or sensor installation has been

tory installed equipment or acces-
sories may also interfere with the
sensor performance.
The sensor may not recognise

(Continued)
The system may turn off in inter-
fered by strong electromagnetic
waves.
Always keep the sensors clean.
NEVER disassemble the sensor
component or apply any impact
on the sensor component.
Be careful not to apply unneces-
sary force on the radar sensor or
sensor cover. If the sensor is
forcibly moved out of proper
alignment, the system may not
operate correctly. In this case, a
warning message may not be
displayed. We recommend that
the vehicle be inspected by an
authorised HYUNDAI dealer.
Do not apply foreign objects
such as a bumper sticker or a
bumper guard near the radar
sensor or apply paint to the sen-
sor area. Doing so may adverse-
ly affect the performance of the
sensor.Warning message
BCW (Blind-Spot Collision
Warning) system disabled.
Radar blocked
This warning message may appear
when:
- One or both of the sensors on the
rear bumper is blocked by dirt or
snow or a foreign object.
- Driving in rural areas where the
sensor does not detect another
vehicle for an extended period of
time.
- When there is inclement weather
such as heavy snow or rain.
- A trailer or carrier is installed.If any of these conditions occur, the
light on the BCW button and the sys-
tem will turn off automatically.
Information
Turn off the BCW and RCCW system
(if equipped) when a trailer or carrier
is installed.
- Press the BCW button (the indica-
tor on the button will turn off)
- Deactivate the RCCW system by
deselecting
'User settings →Driver assistance
→ Parking safety →Rear cross-
traffic safety'
When the BCW cancelled warning
message is displayed in the cluster,
check to make sure that the rear
bumper is free from any dirt or snow
in the areas where the sensor is
located. Remove any dirt, snow, or
foreign material that could interfere
with the radar sensors.

Driving your vehicle
After any dirt or debris is removed,
the system should operate normally
after about 10 minutes of driving the
vehicle.
If the system still does not operate
normally, we recommend that the
vehicle be inspected by an autho-
rised HYUNDAI dealer.
Check BCW (Blind-Spot Collision
Warning) system
If there is a problem with the BCW
system, a warning message will
appear and the light on the button
will turn off. The system will turn off
automatically. We recommend that
you have your vehicle inspected by
an authorised HYUNDAI dealer.
Limitations of the system
The driver must be cautious in the
below situations because the system
may not detect other vehicles or
objects in certain circumstances:
When a trailer or carrier is
installed.
The vehicle drives in inclement
weather such as heavy rain or
snow.
The sensor is covered with rain,
snow, mud, etc.
The rear bumper where the sensor
is located is covered with a foreign
object such as a bumper sticker, a
bumper guard, a bike rack, etc.
The rear bumper is damaged, or
the sensor is out of the original
default position.
The vehicle height gets lower or
higher due to heavy loading in a
boot, abnormal tyre pressure, etc.
When the temperature of the rear
bumper is high.
When the sensors are blocked by
other vehicles, walls or parking-lot
pillars.
The vehicle is driven on a curved
road.
