System disabled
OTM070124NOTM070124N
When the rear bumper around the rear-
side radar or sensor is covered with
foreign material, such as snow or rain,
or installing a trailer or carrier, it can
reduce the detecting performance and
temporarily limit or disable Rear Cross-
Traffic Safety system.
If this occurs, the ‘Rear Cross-Traffic
Safety system disabled. Radar blocked’
warning message will appear on the
cluster.
The system will operate normally when
such foreign material or trailer, etc., is
removed.
If the system does not operate normally
after it is removed, have the system be
inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.

precautions
System malfunction
After starting the engine, a beep will
sound when the gear is shifted to R
(Reverse) to indicate the system is

However, if one or more of the following
occurs, first check whether the ultrasonic
sensor is damaged or blocked with
foreign material. If it still does not work
properly, have the system be inspected
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
• The audible warning does not sound.

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 due to the malfunction of
Reverse Parking Distance Warning.
• 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:
- Moisture is frozen to the sensor
- Sensor is covered with foreign
material, such as snow or water
(The system will operate normally
when such foreign material are
removed.)
- The weather is extremely hot or cold
- The sensor or sensor assembly is
disassembled
- The surface of the sensor has been
subjected to a hard impact
- The surface of the sensor has been
scratched with a sharp object
- The sensors or its surrounding
area is directly sprayed with high
pressure washer• Reverse Parking Distance Warning
may malfunction when:
- Heavy rain or water spray is present
- Water flows on the surface of the
sensor
- Affected by another vehicle’s
sensors
- The sensor is covered with snow
- Driving on uneven road, gravel
roads or bushes
- Objects that generates ultrasonic
waves are near the sensor
- Installing the license plate
differently from the original location
- The vehicle bumper height or
ultrasonic sensor installation has
been modified
- Attaching equipments or
accessories around the ultrasonic
sensors
• The following objects may not be
detected:
- Sharp or slim objects, such as ropes,
chains or small poles.
- Objects, which tend to absorb
sensor frequency, such as clothes,
spongy material or snow.
- Objects smaller than 40 in. (100 cm)
in length and narrower than 6 in. (14
cm) in diameter.
- Pedestrians, animals or objects
that are very close to the ultrasonic
sensors
• 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, have the system be
inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
