Safe Exit Warning malfunction and limitations

Safe Exit Warning malfunction

When Safe Exit Warning is not working properly, the “Check driver assistance system.” warning message appears on the instrument cluster for several seconds, and the master () warning light illuminates on the instrument cluster. If this occurs, we recommend that your vehicle be inspected by an authorised HYUNDAI dealer.

When the outside rear-view mirror warning light is not working properly, the “Check outside mirror warning icon” warning message appears on the instrument cluster for several seconds, and the master () warning light illuminates on the instrument cluster. If this occurs, we recommend that your vehicle be inspected by an authorised HYUNDAI dealer.

Safe Exit Warning disabled

When the rear bumper around the rear corner radar or sensor is covered with foreign material, such as snow or rain, or installing a trailer or carrier, it can reduce the detecting performance and temporarily limit or disable Safe Exit Warning.

If this occurs, the “Driver assistance system limited. Radar blocked.” warning message appears on the instrument cluster.

Safe Exit Warning operates properly when such foreign material or trailer, etc., is removed, and then the vehicle is restarted.

If Safe Exit Warning does not operate properly after it is removed, we recommend that your vehicle be inspected by an authorised HYUNDAI dealer.

Even though the warning message does not appear on the instrument cluster, Safe Exit Warning may not properly operate.
Safe Exit Warning may not properly operate in an area (for example, open terrain) where any objects are not detected immediately after the vehicle is turned on, or when the detecting sensor is blocked with foreign material right after the vehicle is turned on.

Turn off Safe Exit Warning to install or remove a trailer, carrier, or another attachment. Turn on Safe Exit Warning when finished.

Limitations of Safe Exit Warning

Safe Exit Warning may not operate properly, or it may operate unexpectedly under the following circumstances:

Getting out of the vehicle where trees or grass are overgrown
Getting out of the vehicle where the road is wet
The approaching vehicle is very fast or very slow

For more information on the limitations of the rear corner radar, refer to the “Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist (BCA)”.

Safe Exit Warning may not operate properly with interference from strong electromagnetic waves.
Safe Exit Warning may not operate for about 3 seconds after the vehicle is started, or the rear corner radars are initialised.
If the vehicle is turned off and restarted whilst the radar is blocked or has malfunctioned, the condition is maintained. Therefore, Safe Exit Warning may not operate properly.
