Rear parking assist system
(if equipped)
The Rear Parking Assist System
aids the driver during reverse move-
ment of the vehicle by chiming if any
object is sensed within the distance
of about 120 cm (47 in.) behind the
vehicle.This is a supplemental system that
senses objects within the range and
location of the sensors, it cannot
detect objects in other areas where
sensors are not installed.
Operation of the rear parking
assist system
Operation condition
This system will activate when
backing up with the engine running.
Sensing distance when backing up
is approximately 120 cm (47 in.)
when you are driving less than 10
km/h (6 mph).
When more than two objects are
sensed at the same time, the clos-
est one will be recognized first.
ALWAYS look around your
vehicle to make sure there are
no objects or obstacles before
moving the vehicle in any
direction to prevent a collision.
Always pay close attention
when the vehicle is driven
close to objects, particularly
pedestrians, and especially
children.
Be aware that some objects
may not be detected by the
sensors, due to the objects
distance, size or material, all
of which can limit the effec-
tiveness of the sensor.

To prevent SERIOUS INJURY or
DEATH to you or bystanders,
always follow these precautions
when working near or handling
the battery:
Always read and follow
instructions carefully
when handling a battery.
Wear eye protection
designed to protect the
eyes from acid splashes.
Keep all flames, sparks,
or smoking materials
away from the battery.
Hydrogen is always
present in battery cells,
is highly combustible,
and may explode if ignit-
ed.
Keep batteries out of
reach of children.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Batteries contain sulfu-
ric acid which is highly
corrosive. Do not allow
acid to contact your
eyes, skin or clothing.
If acid gets into your eyes, flush
your eyes with clean water for at
least 15 minutes and get imme-
diate medical attention. If acid
gets on your skin, thoroughly
wash the area. If you feel pain or
a burning sensation, get med-
ical attention immediately.
•When lifting a plastic-cased
battery, excessive pressure
on the case may cause battery
acid to leak. Lift with a battery
carrier or with your hands on
opposite corners.
Do not attempt to jump start
your vehicle if your battery is
frozen.
(Continued)
WARNING
Improper jump starting proce-
dure can result in battery
explosion and acid burn haz-
ard.
Loosely connected battery
cables could damage the elec-
tronic control units.
To disconnect battery termi-
nals wait for at least 2 minutes
to allow discharge of high
voltage or it could lead to per-
sonal injury.
While disconnecting, always
disconnect the -VE terminal
first and while connecting,
always connect the -VE termi-
nal last.

jack causing serious injury or
death to you or those nearby.
Take the following safety pre-
cautions:
Do not get under a vehicle
that is supported by a jack.
NEVER attempt to change a
tire in the lane of traffic.
ALWAYS move the vehicle
completely off the road on
level, firm ground away from
traffic before trying to change
a tire. If you cannot find a
level, firm place off the road,
call a towing service for assis-
tance.
Be sure to use the jack pro-
vided with the vehicle.
(Continued)
(Continued)
ALWAYS place the jack on the
designated jacking positions
on the vehicle and NEVER on

An inappropriately
disposed battery can
be harmful to the envi-
ronment and human
health. Dispose the
battery according to
your local law(s) or
regulation.
The battery contains
lead. Do not dispose of
it after use. Please
return the battery to an
authorized HYUNDAI

Battery dangers
Always read the fol-
lowing instructions
carefully when han-
dling a battery.
Keep lighted ciga-
rettes and all other
flames or sparks
away from the battery.
Hydrogen, a highly
combustible gas, is
always present in bat-
tery cells and may
explode if ignited.
Keep batteries out of
the reach of children
because batteries
contain highly corro-
sive SULFURIC ACID.
Do not allow battery
acid to contact your
skin, eyes, clothing or
paint finish.
