next to 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.

Distance Warning Malfunction
and Precautions
Forward/Reverse Parking Distance
Warning malfunction
After starting the engine, a beep will
sound when the gear is shifted to R
(Reverse) to indicate Forward/Reverse
Parking Distance Warning is operating
properly.
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 vehicle inspected by
an authorized retailer of Genesis Branded
products.
• The audible warning does not sound.
• The buzzer sounds intermittently.
• The ‘Ultrasonic sensor error or
blockage’ warning message appears

WARNING
• Forward/Reverse Parking Distance
Warning is a supplemental function.
The operation of Forward/Reverse
Parking Distance Warning can be
affected by several factors (including
environmental conditions). It is the
responsibility of the driver to always
check the front and rear views before
and while parking.
• Your new vehicle warranty does not
cover any accidents or damage to
the vehicle due to the malfunction of
Forward/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.
