- Stop the vehicle on a level ground.
NOTE:
- Adjustment may not be accurate if the installation surface height, and angles of the vehicle and reflector are different.
- Perform in an area with minimum clearance of 8m front, 4m sides, and 1.2m above the vehicle.
- Remove heavy objects from inside of the vehicle (seating area and trunk).
- Ensure that all tires are filled with spec air pressure.
- Remove objects (metal plates, resins, etc.) that may cause electric signal interference from the area where sensor alignment is performed.
- Be sure that the vehicle is firmly fixed to ground free from vibration when performing sensor alignment (getting in/out or opening/closing doors).
- Check that radiator grill and sensor cover are not dirty.
- Check that the wheel alignment is normal.
- Do not turn OFF the power when performing sensor alignment.
- Power supplied to the radar sensor must be between 9V~16V.
- Temperature in the area where sensor alignment is performed must be between -30~60°C.

NOTE:
Visually check that the reflecting side of the reflector is levelled with the front of the vehicle.
- Check again the radar sensor and the surface of front bumper for the following items with the eyes.
NOTE:
- Make sure that there is no debris, or reflecting object on the surface of the radar.
- Make sure that there is no debris, or reflecting object on the radiator grill.
- Connect the GDS to the DLC of the vehicle and start sensor alignment.
NOTE:
When the engine is running, the vibration may cause inaccurate sensor alignment, so perform sensor alignment in IG ON mode.
- After correctly selecting the vehicle model, select "SCC Alignment" from the auxiliary functions in GDS Menu.
