Auto control (if equipped)
The rain sensor located on the upper
end of the windshield glass senses
the amount of rainfall and controls the
wiping cycle for the proper interval.
The more it rains, the faster the wiper
operates. When the rain stops, the
wiper stops.
To vary the speed setting, turn the
speed control knob (1).
If the wiper switch is set in AUTO
mode when the Engine Start/Stop
Button is ON, the wiper will operate
once to perform a self-check of the
system. Set the wiper to OFF posi-
tion when the wiper is not in use.
When washing the vehicle, set
the wiper switch to the OFF posi-
tion so the auto wiper will not
operate.
The wiper may operate and be
damaged if the switch is set in
the AUTO mode while washing
the vehicle.
Do not remove the sensor cover
located on the upper end of the
passenger side windshield
glass. Damage to system parts
could occur and may not be cov-
ered by your vehicle warranty.
When starting the vehicle in win-
ter, set the wiper switch in the
OFF position. Otherwise, wipers
may operate and ice may dam-
age the windshield wiper blades.
Always remove all snow and ice
and defrost the windshield prop-
erly prior to operating the wind-
shield wipers.

The Autonomous Emergency
Braking (AEB) helps avoid accidents
by identifying critical situations early
and warning the driver.
Take the following precautions when
using the Autonomous Emergency
Braking (AEB):
This system is only a supplementalsystem and it is not intended to,
nor does it replace the need for
extreme care and attention of the
driver. The sensing range and
objects detectable by the sensors
are limited. Pay attention to the
road conditions at all times.
NEVER drive too fast for the road conditions or too quickly when cor-
nering.
Always drive cautiously to prevent unexpected and sudden situations
from occurring. AEB does not stop
the vehicle completely and does
not avoid collisions. AEB operates according to the dis-
tance from the vehicle ahead, rela-
tive velocity, and driver's operation
of the brake or accelerator pedal.
Do not drive dangerously to inten-
tionally operate the AEB.
ALWAYS check the speed and the distance to the vehicle ahead. The
AEB is not a substitute for safe
driving practices.AEB Operation

Warning light and message
When the AEB system is turnedoff, the AEB warning light turns on.
(Warning message does not come
on.) If the sensor or cover is dirty or
obscured with foreign matter such
as snow, the AEB warning light
and message comes on. In this
case, the AEB system may not
function temporarily, but it does not
indicate a malfunction of the AEB
system. Clean the sensor or cover
by using a soft cloth.
If there is a malfunction with the AEB system, the AEB warning light
and message will come on. Have
your vehicle checked by an author-
ized Kia Premium dealer.
When the ESC (Electronic Stability Control) indicator or SCC (Smart
Cruise Control) message comes
on the AEB warning message may
come on but it does not indicate a
malfunction of the AEB system.
✽ NOTICE
Do not damage the sensor or sensor
area by a strong impact. If the sen-
sor moves slightly off position, the
AEB will not operate correctly.
If this occurs, have your vehicle
checked by an authorized Kia
Premium dealer as soon as possible.

- There is heavy rain or heavy snow.
- There is interference by electro- magnetic waves.
- There are strong radar reflec- tions.
- Driving in a curve. - Driving uphill or downhill.
- Driving in areas under construc-
tion.
