The  rear  parking  assist  system
sequentially
depending   on   the   speed   and
shapes of the objects detected.
The  rear  parking  assist  system
may  malfunction   if  the   vehicle
bumper height or sensor installa-
tion  has been  modified  or  dam-
aged.  Any  non-factory  installed
equipment  or   accessories  may
also interfere with the sensor per-
formance.
This system can only sense objects
within the range and location of the
sensors; It can not detect objects in
other areas  where sensors  are not
installed.    Also,    small    or    slim
objects,  such  as poles  or  objects
located  between  sensors  may not
be detected by the sensors.
Always  visually  check  behind  the
vehicle when driving back up.
Be sure to inform any drivers in the
vehicle that  may be unfamiliar with
the  system regarding  the  systems
capabilities and limitations.
Your new vehicle warranty does not
cover  any accidents  or damage  to
the vehicle  or its occupants due  to
rear parking assist system malfunc-
tion. Always  drive  safely  and cau-
tiously.
Pay close  attention when  the vehi-
may
not
sound
cle is driven close to objects on the
road,
particularly
pedestrians,
especially  children.  Be aware  that
some objects  may not  be detected
by the  sensors, due to  the object’s
distance,  size   or   material,  all   of
which can limit the effectiveness  of
the sensor.  Always perform  a visu-
al inspection to make sure the vehi-
cle   is   clear   of  all   obstructions
before  moving  the  vehicle  in  any
direction.

Sensor
may
not
recognize
objects  less than  40  cm (15  in.)
from the  sensor, or it  may sense
an incorrect  distance.   Use  cau-
tion.
NOTICE
If  you  don’t  hear  an  audible  warning
sound or  if the  buzzer sounds intermit-
tently when shifting the gear to “R” posi-
tion, this  may indicate a  malfunction in
the  rear  parking  assist  system.  If  this
occurs, have your vehicle checked  by an
authorized Kia  dealer as  soon as  possi-
ble.
When sensor is frozen or stained
with snow,  dirt, or  water, sensor
may   be   inoperative    until   the
stains  are removed  using a  soft
cloth.
Do not push, scratch or strike the
sensor.   Sensor  damage   could
occur.
