mild soap or neutral detergent, and
rinse thoroughly with water.
[ Do not spray the wide-rear view
cameras or the rear ultrasonic
sensors or their surrounding
areadirectly with a high pressure
washer. It may cause the wide angle
cameras or the ultrasonic sensors
tomalfunction.
[ Do not apply objects, such as a
bumper sticker or a bumper guard,
near the wide angle cameras
orultrasonic sensors or apply paint to
the bumper. Doing so may adversely
affect the performance of Parking
Collision-Avoidance Assist.
[ Never disassemble or apply impact
on the wide angle cameras or the
ultrasonic sensors components.
[ Do not apply unnecessary force on
the wide-rear view cameras or the
ultrasonic sensors. Reverse Parking
Collision-Avoidance Assist may
not operate properly if the wide
angle cameras or the ultrasonic
sensor(s) is forcibly moved out of
proper alignment. Have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.

Exterior CareNOTICE
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
side view 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 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
rus
t 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-pr
essure 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.
