System Malfunction and
Precautions
System malfunction
Forward/Reverse Parking Distance
Warning has a self-diagnosis function
that can determine whether the
ultrasonic sensor is working properly.
After starting the engine, a beep will
sound when the gear is shifted to R
(Reverse) to indicate the system is
operating normally.
However, if one or more of the following
occurs, first check whether the ultrasonic
senior is damaged or whether the system
is in a non-operating condition. If it still
does not work properly, have the system
inspected by an authorized retailer of
Genesis products.
• The audible warning does not sound.
• The buzzer sounds intermittently.
• The ‘Parking sensor error or blockage’
warning message appears on the
cluster.
ORG3070077L
System precautions
• Forward/Reverse Parking Distance
Warning may malfunction if the
vehicle bumper height or ultrasonic
sensor installation has been modified
or damaged. Any non-factory installed
equipment or accessories may also
interfere with the sensor performance.
• When the ultrasonic sensor is frozen
or stained with snow, dirt, or water,
the sensor may be not operate until
the stains are removed using a soft
cloth.
• Do not push, scratch or strike the
ultrasonic sensor. Sensor damage
could occur.
• Do not spray the ultrasonic sensors
or its surrounding area directly with a
high pressure washer.

CAUTION
Take the following precautions to
maintain optimal performance of the
detecting sensors:
• Always keep the rear view camera
and rear ultrasonic sensors clean.
• Do not use any cleanser containing
acid or alkaline detergents when
cleaning the rear view camera lens.
Use only a mild soap or neutral
detergent, and rinse thoroughly with
water.
• Never disassemble or apply impact
on the rear view camera or the rear
ultrasonic sensors components.
• Do not apply unnecessary force on
the rear view camera or the rear
ultrasonic sensors. The system may
not operate properly if the rear
view camera or the rear ultrasonic
sensor(s) is forcibly moved out of
proper alignment. Have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized retailer of
Genesis Branded products.
• Do not spray the rear view camera or
the rear ultrasonic sensors or their
surrounding area directly with a
high pressure washer. It may cause
the rear view camera or the rear
ultrasonic sensors to malfunction.
• The system may not work properly
if the bumper has been damaged,
replaced or repaired.
• Do not apply objects, such as a
bumper sticker or a bumper guard,
near the rear view camera or rear
ultrasonic sensors or apply paint to
the bumper. Doing so may adversely
affect the performance of the
system.
• Reverse Parking Collision-Avoidance
Assist may not operate normally if
interfered by strong electromagnetic
waves.
