WARNING
Take the following precautions when
using Rear Cross-Traffic Safety system:
• For your safety, change the Settings
after parking the vehicle at a safe
location.
• If any other system’s warning
message is displayed or audible
warning is generated, Rear Cross-
Traffic Safety system’s warning
message may not be displayed
and audible warning may not be
generated.
• You may not hear the warning sound
of Rear Cross-Traffic Safety system if
the surrounding is noisy.
• Rear Cross-Traffic Safety system may
not operate if the driver applies the
brake pedal to avoid collision.
• During Rear Cross-Traffic Safety
system operation, the vehicle may
stop suddenly injuring passengers
and shifting loose objects. Always
have the seat belt on and keep loose
objects secured.
• Even if there is a problem with Rear
Cross-Traffic Safety system, the
vehicle’s basic braking performance
will operate normally.
• Rear Cross-Traffic Safety system does
not operate in all situations or cannot
avoid all collisions.
• During emergency braking,
braking control by the function
will automatically cancel when the
driver excessively depresses the
accelerator pedal. •
The driver should hold the
responsibility to control the vehicle.
Do not solely depend on Rear
Cross-Traffic Safety system. Rather,
maintain a safe braking distance, and
if necessary, depress the brake pedal
to reduce driving speed or to stop
the vehicle.
• Never deliberately operate Rear
Cross-Traffic Safety system on
people, animal, objects, etc. It may
cause serious injury or death.
CAUTION
The brake control may not operate
properly depending on the status of
ESC (Electronic Stability Control).
There will only be a warning when:
-The ESC (Electronic S

tability Control)
warning light is on
- ESC (Electronic S

tability Control) is

WARNING
• Reverse Parking Distance Warning
is a supplemental system. The
operation of the system can be
affected by several factors (including
environmental conditions). It is the
responsibility of the driver to always
check the rear view before and while
parking.
• Your new vehicle warranty does not
cover any accidents or damage to
the vehicle.
• Pay close attention when driving
near objects, pedestrians, and
especially children. Some objects
may not be detected by the
ultrasonic sensors, due to the objects
distance, size or material, all of
which can limit the effectiveness of
the sensor.
Limitations of the system
• Reverse Parking Distance Warning
may not operate normally when:
- Mois

ture is frozen to the sensor
- Sensor is cov

ered with foreign
material, such as snow or water
(The system will operate normally
when such foreign material are
removed.)
- The w

eather is extremely hot or cold
- The sensor or sensor assembly is disassembled
- The surface o

f the sensor is pressed
hard or an impact is applied with a
hard object
- The surface o

f the sensor is
scratched with a sharp object
- The sensors or its surr

ounding
area is directly sprayed with high
pressure washer •
Reverse Parking Distance Warning
may malfunction when:
- Hea
vy rain or water spray is present
- Wa

ter flows on the surface of the
sensor
- Aff

ano
ther
v
ehicle’s
sensors
- The sensor is cov

t or
ultrasonic sensor installation has
been modified
• The following objects may not be
detected:
-Sharp or slim objects, such as ropes,
chains or small poles.
- Objects, which tend t
o absorb
sensor frequency, such as clothes,
spongy material or snow.
- Objects smaller than 40 in. (100 cm) in length and narr

ower than 6 in. (14
cm) in diameter.
• Parking Distance Warning Indicators
may be displayed differently from
the actual detected location when
the obstacle is located between the
sensors.
• Parking Distance Warning indicator
may not occur sequentially depending
on vehicle speed or obstacle shape.
• If Reverse Parking Distance Warning
needs repair, we recommend that the
system be inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
