Coasting guide (if equipped)
A chime will sound and the coasting
guide indicator will blink four times to
inform the driver when to take the
foot off from the accelerator by antic-
ipating a decelerating event* based
on the analysis of driving routes and
road conditions of the navigation. It
induces the driver to coast the vehi-
cle on a road only with the electrical-
motor power. This prevents unneces-
sary fuel consumption and increases
fuel efficiency
❈Examples of decelerating events:
U-turn, turnings to the right/left,
traffic circles, highway junctions,
tollgates, etc. to detect speeding.

Press the Engine Start/Stop button and put the shift lever in P(Park). In the
User Settings Mode, select Driving Assist, Coasting Guide, and then On to
turn on the system. Cancel the selection of coasting guide to turn off the sys-
tem. For the explanation of the system, press and hold the [OK] button.

To activate the system, take the following procedures. Enter your destination
information on the navigation and select the driving route. Select the ECO
mode in the Integrated Driving Control System. Then, satisfy the following.
- The driving speed should be between 37 mph (60 km/h) and 99 mph (160 km/h).
❈The operating condition (driving speed) varies in a situation, as there may
be a difference in displaying the driving speeds between the instrument
cluster and the navigation, and as there may be a difference between the
actual driving speed and the driving speed display due to tire inflating
ranges.

Rear parking assist system
(if equipped)
The Rear Parking Assist System
assists the driver during reverse move-
ment of the vehicle by chiming if any
object is sensed within approximately
50 in (120 cm) behind the vehicle.
This system is a supplemental sys-
tem 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
Operating condition
This system will activate when
backing up with the ignition switch
in the ON position. However, if the
vehicle speed exceeds 3 mph
(5km/h), the system may not detect
objects.
If the vehicle speed exceeds 6 mph
(10 km/h), the system will not warn
you even though objects are
detected.
When more than two objects are
sensed at the same time, the clos-
est one will be recognized first.
OLFH044062L
Sensor
ALWAYS look around your vehi-
cle to make sure there are not
any objects or obstacles before
moving the vehicle in any direc-
tion to prevent a collision.
Always pay close attention
when the vehicle is driven close
to objects, particularly pedestri-
ans, and especially children.
Be aware that some objects
may not be visible on the
screen or be detected by the
sensors, due to the objects
distance, size or material, all of
which can limit the effective-
ness of the sensor.

Types of warning sound and indicator
The indicator may differ from the
illustration as objects or sensors
status. If the indicator blinks,
have your vehicle checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
If the audible warning does not
sound or if the buzzer sounds
intermittently when shifting into
R (Reverse) position, this may
indicate a malfunction with the
Parking Assist System. If this
occurs, have your vehicle
checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer as soon as pos-
sible.
To turn off the Rear Parking
Assist System
Push the button to turn off the Rear
Parking Assist System. The indicator
light on the button will turn on.
NOTICE
Types of warning soundIndicator
When an object is 24 to 47 in
(60 to 120 cm) from the rear
bumper, the warning sound
beeps intermittently.
When an object is 12 to 24 in
(30 to 60 cm) from the rear
bumper, the warning sound
beeps more frequently.
When an object is within 12 in
(30 cm) from the rear bumper,
the warning sound beeps
continuously.OLF044479N

Non-operational conditions of
Parking Assist System
The Rear Parking Assist System
may not operate normally when:
Moisture is frozen to the sensor.
The sensor is covered with dirt or
debris such as snow or ice, or the
sensor cover is blocked.
There is a possibility of the Rear
Parking Assist System malfunction
when:
Driving on uneven road surfaces
such as unpaved roads, gravel,
bumps, or gradient.
Objects generating excessive noise
such as vehicle horns, loud motor-
cycle engines, or truck air brakes
can interfere with the sensor.
Heavy rain or water spray is present.
Wireless transmitters or mobile
phones are present near the sensor.
The sensor is covered with snow.
Any non-factory equipment or
accessories have been installed, or
if the vehicle bumper height or sen-
sor installation has been modified.
Detecting range may decrease when:
Outside air temperature is
extremely hot or cold.
Undetectable objects smaller than
40 inches (1 m) and narrower than
6 inches (14 cm) in diameter.
The following objects may not be
recognized by the sensor:
Sharp or slim objects such as
ropes, chains or small poles.
Objects, which tend to absorb sen-
sor frequency such as clothes,
spongy material or snow.

Rear parking assist system
precautions
The rear parking assist system
may not operate consistently in
some circumstances depending on
the speed of the vehicle and the
shapes of the objects detected.
The rear parking assist system may
malfunction if the vehicle bumper
height or sensor installation has
been modified or damaged. Any
non-factory installed equipment or
accessories may also interfere with
the sensor performance.
The sensor may not recognize
objects less than 15 in. (40 cm)
from the sensor, or it may sense an
incorrect distance. Use caution.
When the sensor is blocked with
snow, dirt, debris, or ice, the rear
parking assist system may be inop-
erative until the snow or ice melts,
or the debris is removed. Use a
soft cloth to wipe debris away from
the sensor.
Do not push, scratch or strike the
sensor with any hard objects that
could damage the surface of the
sensor. Sensor damage could occur. Do not spray the sensors or its sur-
rounding area directly with a high
pressure washer. Doing so may
cause the sensors to fail to operate
normally.
Your new vehicle warranty does
not cover any accidents or dam-
age to the vehicle or injuries to
its occupants related to a Rear
Parking Assist System. Always
drive safely and cautiously.

button
Whenever the front door is opened,
the Engine Start/Stop button will illu-
minate and will go off 30 seconds
after the door is closed.
OLFP055007K
To turn the hybrid system off in
an emergency:
Press and hold the Engine
Start/Stop button for more than
two seconds OR rapidly press
and release the Engine Start/
Stop button three times (within
three seconds).
If the vehicle is still moving, you
can restart the hybrid system
without depressing the brake
pedal by pressing the Engine
Start/Stop button with the shift
lever in the N (Neutral) position.
WARNING
NEVER press the Engine
Start/Stop button while the
vehicle is in motion except in
an emergency. This will result
in the hybrid system turning
off and loss of power assist
for the steering and brake
systems. This may lead to
loss of directional control and
braking function, which could
cause an accident.
Before leaving the driver’s
seat, always make sure the
shift lever is in the P (Park)
position, set the parking brake,
press the Engine Start/Stop
button to the OFF position, and
take the Smart Key with you.
Unexpected vehicle movement
may occur if these precautions
are not followed.
