WARNING • Parking Distance Warning is a supplemental function. The operation 
of 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 
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.
• Parking Distance Warning does not  warn you in the order of detection. It 
varies depending on the speed of the 
vehicle or the shape of a person, 
animal, or object.
• If the Parking Distance Warning does  not operate properly, have the vehicle 
inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI
