2. CAUTIONS
- Note that the display does not show everything in the rear area. Always check nobody,
especially animals and children, is behind the vehicle when parking or reversing.
- If you can not properly check the vehicle behind, get out of the vehicle and then visually
check it.
- The parking aid system is just a supplemental device to help your parking.
- Always keep the safety precautions.
- Do not press or shock the sensors by hitting or using a high-pressure water gun while
washing, since it may damage the sensors.
- If the system is in normal operating condition, a short beep sounds when the shift lever is
moved into "R" position with the ignition key "ON".

The parking aid system will not work or improperly work under following cases:
1. Certain obstacles that sensors can not detect
- Thin and narrow objects, such as wires, ropes, chains
-
Cotton, sponge, clothes, snow; that absorb ultrasonic waves
- Obstacles lower than the bumper (ex. drain ditch or mud puddle)
2. Not defective but improperly working
- When the sensing portion is frozen (operates normally after thawed)
- When the sensing portion is covered by rain, water drops, snow or mud (operates normally
after cleaned)
- When receiving other ultrasonic signals (metal sound or air braking noises from heavy
commercial vehicles)
-
When a high-power radio is turned on
3. Narrowed sensing area
- When the sensing portion is partially covered by snow or mud (operates normally after
cleaned)
Surrounding temperature of sensor is too high (approx. over 80°C) or too low (approx.
-
below -30°C)
4. Not defective but may cause malfunction
- When driving on the rough roads, gravel road, hill and grass
- When the bumper height is changed due to heavy load
- When the sensing portion is frozen
- When the sensing portion is covered by rain, water drops, snow or mud
- When receiving other ultrasonic signals (metal sound or air braking noises from heavy
commercial vehicles)
- When a high-power radio is turned on
- When some accessories are attached in detecting ranges
