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.

WARNING
Take the following precautions when
using Reverse Parking Collision-
Avoidance Assist:
• Always exercise extreme caution
while driving. The driver is
responsible for braking and safe
driving.
• Always pay attention to road and
traffic conditions while driving,
whether or not there is a warning.
• Always look around your vehicle to
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), Reverse Parking Collision-
Avoidance Assist 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.
CAUTION
• Noise may be heard when sudden
braking occurs to avoid a collision.
• If any other warning sound such
as the seat belt warning chime is
already generated, Reverse Parking
Collision-Avoidance Assist warning
may not sound.
• Reverse Parking Collision-Avoidance
Assist may not work properly if the
bumper has been damaged, replaced
or repaired.
• Reverse Parking Collision-Avoidance
Assist may not operate normally if
interfered by strong electromagnetic
waves.
• Playing the vehicle audio system at
high volume may prevent passengers
from hearing Reverse Parking
Collision-Avoidance Assist warning
sounds.
• Turn off Reverse Parking Collision-
Avoidance Assist when towing a
trailer. If towing and moving in
reverse, Reverse Parking Collision-
Avoidance Assist will activate as it
detects the trailer.
• The brake control may not operate
properly depending on the status of
ESC (Electronic Stability Control).
There will only be a warning when:
- The ESC (Electronic Stability
Control) warning light is on
- ESC (Electronic Stability Control) is
engaged in a different function

Driver Assistance System7-150
CAUTION
Take the following precautions to
maintain optimal performance of the
detecting sensors:
• Always keep the wide-rear view
camera and rear ultrasonic sensors
clean.
• Do not use any cleanser containing
acid or alkaline detergents when
cleaning the wide-rear view camera
lens. Use only a mild soap or neutral
detergent, and rinse thoroughly with
water.
• Do not spray the wide-rear view
camera or the rear ultrasonic sensors
or their surrounding area directly
with a high pressure washer. It may
cause the wide-rear view camera
or the rear ultrasonic sensors to
malfunction.
• Do not apply objects, such as a
bumper sticker or a bumper guard,
near the wide-rear view camera
or rear ultrasonic sensors or apply
paint to the bumper. Doing so may
adversely affect the performance of
Reverse Parking Collision-Avoidance
Assist.
• Never disassemble or apply impact
on the wide-rear view camera or the
rear ultrasonic sensors components.
• Do not apply unnecessary force on
the wide-rear view camera or the
rear ultrasonic sensors. Reverse
Parking Collision-Avoidance Assist
may not operate properly if the
wide-rear view camera or the rear
ultrasonic sensor(s) is forcibly moved
out of proper alignment. Have the
vehicle inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
