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 function 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 Reverse Parking
Collision-Avoidance Assist. Doing
so may lead to vehicle damage or
injuries.

Driver assistance system7-128

[ When remotely moving forward
using method (2), it is recognized
as a parking situation, and will
immediately control the steering
wheel according to the condition
ahead to assist with entering the
parking space and aligning the
vehicle. However, performance
may reduce depending on the
pedestrians, animals, shape of
objects, location, for example,
around the vehicle.

[ For moving remotely in reverse,
both method (1) and (2) aligns the
steering wheel first, and then will
only move the vehicle straight.

[ When remotely moving forward or
in reverse is completed, the vehicle
will automatically shift to P (Park)
and engage EPB (Electronic Parking
Brake).
CAUTION

[ When using Remote Remote
Forward/Backward function, make
sure that all passengers have gotten
out of the vehicle.

[ If the vehicle’s battery is discharged
or Remote Smart Parking Assist
malfunctions when parked in a
narrow parking space, Remote
Forward/Backward function will not
operate. Always park your vehicle in
a space wide enough for you to get in
or out of your vehicle.

[ Please note that depending on the
parking space, you may not be able
to exit from the space you have
entered by using Remote Forward/
Backward function.

[ After parking, the surrounding may
change due to the movement of
surrounding vehicles. If this occurs,
Remote Forward/Backward function
may not operate.

occurs by Remote Smart Parking
Assist or when the brake pedal is
depressed by the driver.

[ Remote Smart Parking Assist may
suddenly apply the brake to avoid
collision.

[ Use Remote Smart Parking Assist
only in a parking space that is large
enough for the vehicle to move
safely.
NOTICE

[If the 3rd stage warning (continuous
beep) of the Forward/Reverse
Parking Distance Warning sounds
while Remote Smart Parking
Assist is operating, it means the
obstacle detected is close to your
vehicle. At this time, Remote Smart
Parking Assist will temporarily stop
operating. Make sure there are no
pedestrians, animals, or objects
around your vehicle.

If you have a flat tire while
driving
If a tire goes flat while you are driving:

[Take your foot off the accelerator
pedal and let the vehicle slow down
while driving straight ahead. Do not
apply the brakes immediately or
attempt to pull off the road as this
may cause loss of vehicle control
resulting in an accident. When the
vehicle has slowed to such a speed
that it is safe to do so, brake carefully
and pull off the road. Drive off the
road as far as possible and park on
firm, level ground. If you are on a
divided highway, do not park in the
median area between the two traffic
lanes.

[ When the vehicle is stopped, press the
hazard warning flasher button, shift
the gear to P (Park), apply the parking
brake, and press the Engine Start/Stop
button to the OFF position.

[ Have all passengers get out of the
vehicle. Be sure they all get out on the
side of the vehicle that is away from
traffic.

[ When changing a flat tire, follow the
instructions provided later in this
chapter.
IF THE ENGINE WILL NOT
START

[Be sure to shift the gear to N (Neutral)
or P (Park). The engine starts only
when the gear is in N (Neutral) or P
(Park).

[ Turn on the interior light. If the light
dims or goes out when you operate
the starter, the battery is drained.
See instructions for “Jump Starting”
provided in this chapter.

[ Check the fuel level and add fuel if
necessary.
If the vehicle still does not start, call
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer for
assistance.
NOTICE
Push or pull starting the vehicle may
cause the catalytic converter to
overload which can lead to damage to
the emission control system.

If the indicators do not extinguish after a
few minutes, please visit an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Each wheel is equipped with a tire
pressure sensor mounted inside the tire
behind the valve stem (except for the
spare tire). You must use TPMS specific
wheels. It is recommended that you
always have your tires serviced by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
You may not be able to identify a tire
with low pressure by simply looking at it.
Always use a good quality tire pressure
gauge to measure. Please note that a tire
that is hot (from being driven) will have a
higher pressure measurement than a tire
that is cold.
A cold tire means the vehicle has been
sitting for 3 hours and driven for less
than 1 mile (1.6 km) in that 3 hour period.
Allow the tire to cool before measuring
the inflation pressure. Always be sure
the tire is cold before inflating to the
recommended pressure.
WARNING

[The TPMS cannot alert you to severe
and sudden tire damage caused by
external factors such as nails or road
debris.

[ If you feel any vehicle instability,
immediately take your foot off
the accelerator, apply the brakes
gradually with light force, and slowly
move to a safe position off the road.
WARNING
Tampering with, modifying, or disabling
the Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS) components may interfere
with the system’s ability to warn the
driver of low tire pressure conditions
and/or TPMS malfunctions. Tampering
with, modifying, or disabling the Tire
Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
components may void the warranty for
that portion of the vehicle.
