WARNING
Take the following precautions when
using Reverse Parking Collision-
Avoidance Assist:
• Always pay extreme caution while
driving. The driver is responsible for
controlling the brake for safe driving.
• Always pay attention to road and
traffic conditions while driving,
whether or not there is a warning.
• Always look around your vehicle to
make sure there are no pedestrians
or objects before moving the vehicle.
• The performance of Reverse Parking
Collision-Avoidance Assist may
vary under certain conditions. If
vehicle speed is above 2 mph (4
km/h), the system will provide
collision avoidance assist only when
pedestrians are detected. Always
look around and pay attention when
backing up your vehicle.
• Some objects may not be detected
by the rear ultrasonic sensors due
to the objects distance, size or
material, all of which can limit the
effectiveness of the sensor.
• Reverse Parking Collision-Avoidance
Assist may not operate properly
or may operate unnecessarily
depending on the road conditions
and the surroundings.
• Do not solely rely on the system.
Doing so may lead to vehicle damage
or injuries.
CAUTION
• Noise may be heard when sudden
braking occurs to avoid a collision.
• If any other warning sound such
as the seat belt warning chime is
already generated, Reverse Parking
Collision-Avoidance Assist warning
may not sound.
• The system may not work properly
if the bumper has been damaged,
replaced or repaired.
• Reverse Parking Collision-Avoidance
Assist may not operate normally if
interfered by strong electromagnetic
waves.
• Playing the vehicle audio system at
high volume may prevent passengers
from hearing Reverse Parking
Collision-Avoidance Assist warning
sounds.
• Turn off Reverse Parking Collision-
Avoidance Assist when towing a
trailer. If towing and moving in
reverse, Reverse Parking Collision-
Avoidance Assist will activate as it
detects the trailer.

Maintenance
9-66
NOTICE
If you park your vehicle near a stainless
steel sign or glass facade building, the
vehicle’s exterior plastic parts such
as a bumper, spoiler, garnish, lamp
or outside rearview mirror might be
damaged due to sunlight reflected from
the sign or building. To prevent damage
of the exterior plastic parts, you should
avoid parking in areas where light may
be reflected or use a car cover. (The
exterior plastic parts applied to your
vehicle may vary.)
Exterior care
Exterior general caution
It is very important to follow the label
directions when using any chemical
cleaner or polish. Read all warning and
caution statements that appear on the
label.
Finish maintenance
Washing
To help protect your vehicle’s finish from
rust and deterioration, wash it thoroughly
and frequently at least once a month
with lukewarm or cold water.
If you use your vehicle for off-road
driving, you should wash it after each
off-road trip. Pay special attention to the
removal of any accumulation of salt, dirt,
mud, and other foreign materials. Make
sure the drain holes in the lower edges
of the doors and rocker panels are kept
clear and clean.
Insects, tar, tree sap, bird droppings,
industrial pollution and similar deposits
can damage your vehicle’s finish if not
removed immediately.
Even prompt washing with plain water
may not completely remove all these
deposits. A mild soap, safe for use on
painted surfaces, should be used.
After washing, rinse the vehicle
thoroughly with lukewarm or cold water.
Do not allow soap to dry on the finish.
High-pressure washing

[When using high-pressure washers,
make sure to maintain sufficient
distance from the vehicle.
Insufficient clearance or excessive
pressure can lead to component
damage or water penetration.

[Do not spray the camera, sensors or
its surrounding area directly with a
high pressure washer. Shock applied
from high pressure water may cause
the device to not operate normally.

[Do not bring the nozzle tip close to
boots (rubber or plastic covers) or
connectors as they may be damaged
if they come into contact with high
pressure water.
WARNING
After washing the vehicle, test the
brakes while driving slowly to see
if they have been affected by water
before getting on the road. If braking
performance is impaired, dry the
brakes by applying them lightly while
maintaining a slow forward speed.
