[A] : Sensor
Reverse Parking Distance Warning
system assists the driver when back-
ing up the vehicle by chiming if any
object is sensed within approximate-
ly 50 in (120 cm) 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.
Operation of Reverse Parking
Distance Warning system
Operating condition
This system will activate when
backing up with the POWER button
in the ON position. However, if the
vehicle speed exceeds 3 mph
(5km/h), the system may not detect
objects.
If the vehicle speed exceeds 6 mph
(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 recognized first.

ALWAYS look around your vehi-
cle to make sure there are not
any objects or obstacles before
moving the vehicle in any direc-
tion to prevent a collision.
Always pay close attention
when the vehicle is driven close
to objects, particularly pedestri-
ans, 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 effective-
ness of the sensor.

Types of warning soundIndicator
When an object is 24 to 47 in (60 to 120 cm) from the
rear bumper, the warning sound beeps intermittently.
When an object is 12 to 24 in (30 to 60 cm) from the rear
bumper, the warning sound beeps more frequently.
When an object is within 12 in (30 cm) from the rear
bumper, the warning sound beeps continuously.
The indicator may differ from the illustration as objects or sensors sta-
tus. If the indicator blinks, have your vehicle checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
If the audible warning does not sound or if the buzzer sounds intermit-
tently when shifting into R (Reverse) position, this may indicate a mal-
function with the Reverse Parking Distance Warning system. If this
occurs, have your vehicle checked by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer as
soon as possible.

Reverse Parking Distance
Warning system Precautions
The Parking Distance Warning
(Reverse) system may not operate
consistently in some circum-
stances depending on the speed of
the vehicle and the shapes of the
objects detected.
Reverse Parking Distance Warning
system may malfunction if the vehi-
cle bumper height or sensor instal-
lation has been modified or dam-
aged. Any non-factory installed
equipment or accessories may also
interfere with the sensor perform-
ance.
The sensor may not recognize
objects less than 12 in. (30 cm)
from the sensor, or it may sense an
incorrect 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.
Extreme caution should always
be taken to avoid accidents or
vehicle injuries. Do not solely
rely on the Parking Distance
Warning (Reverse) system.
Always drive safely and cau-
tiously, especially when back-
ing up in reverse.
