The BSD (Blind spot detection) system
uses a radar sensor to alert the driver
while driving.
It senses the rear side territory of the
vehicle and provides information to the
driver. ➀
BSD(Blind spot detection)
Warning range is dependent on your
vehicle speed. However, if the speed of
your vehicle is faster by 10km/h or more
than other nearby vehicles, the warning is
not operated. ➁ LCA(Lane change assist)
When vehicles are approaching to your
vehicle at high speed, the warning is
operated. ➂ RCTA(Rear cross traffic alert)
When your vehicle moves backward, the
sensor detects approaching vehicles to
the left or right side direction and warning
is operated. BSD (Blind Spot Detection) /
LCA (Lane Change Assist)
Operating conditions
The indicator on the switch will illuminate when the BSD (Blind spot detection) sys-
tem switch is pressed with the ignition
switch ON. If the vehicle speed exceeds 30
km/h (18.6 mph), the system will activate.
If you press the switch again, the switch
indicator and system will be turned off.
If the ignition switch is turned OFF and
ON the system returns to the previous
state.
BLIND SPOT DETECTION SYSTEM (BSD) (IF EQUIPPED)OUM054176L
WARNING
Always check the road condition while driving for unexpected situa-
tions even though the BSD (Blindspot detection) system is operating.
BSD (Blind spot detection) system is a system made for convenience.
Do not solely rely on the system but
always pay attention to drive safely.

Driving your vehicle
Following distance
Stay at least twice as far behind the vehi-
cle ahead as you would when driving
your vehicle without a trailer. This can
help you avoid situations that require
heavy braking and sudden turns.
Passing
You’ll need more passing distance up
ahead when you’re towing a trailer. And,
because of the increased vehicle length,
you’ll need to go much farther beyond the
passed vehicle before you can return to
your lane.
Backing up
Hold the bottom of the steering wheel
with one hand. Then, to move the trailer
to the left, just move your hand to the left.
To move the trailer to the right, move your
hand to the right. Always back up slowly
and, if possible, have someone guide you.
Making turns
When you’re turning with a trailer, make
wider turns than normal. Do this so your
trailer won’t strike soft shoulders, curbs,
road signs, trees, or other objects. Avoid
jerky or sudden maneuvers. Signal well
in advance.
Turn signals when towing a trailer
When you tow a trailer, your vehicle has
to have a different turn signal flasher and
extra wiring. The green arrows on your
instrument panel will flash whenever you
signal a turn or lane change. Properly
connected, the trailer lights will also flash
to alert other drivers you’re about to turn,
change lanes, or stop.
When towing a trailer, the green arrows
on your instrument panel will flash for
turns even if the bulbs on the trailer are
burned out. Thus, you may think drivers
behind you are seeing your signals
when, in fact, they are not. It is important
to check occasionally to be sure the trail-
er bulbs are still working. You must also
check the lights every time you discon-
nect and then reconnect the wires.
Do not connect a trailer lighting system
directly to your vehicle’s lighting system.
Use only an approved trailer wiring har-
ness.
An authorized Kia dealer can assist you
in installing the wiring harness.WARNING
Failure to use an approved trailer wiring harness could result in dam-
age to the vehicle electrical system
and/or personal injury.

What to do in an emergency
IF YOU HAVE A FLAT TIRE (WITH SPARE TIRE, IF EQUIPPED)
Jack and tools
The jack, jack handle, wheel lug nut wrench are stored in the luggage
compartment.
Pull up the luggage box cover to reach this equipment.
(1) Jack handle
(2) Jack
(3) Wheel lug nut wrench
Jacking instructions
The jack is provided for emergency
tire changing only.
To prevent the jack from “rattling”
while the vehicle is in motion, store it
properly and fasten the jack screw
fully.
Follow jacking instructions to reduce
the possibility of personal injury.
OJD062001
WARNING - Changing tires
Never attempt vehicle repairs in the traffic lanes of a public
road or highway.
Always move the vehicle com- pletely off the road and onto
the shoulder before trying to
change a tire. The jack should
be used on firm level ground.
If you cannot find a firm level
place off the road, call a tow-
ing service company for
assistance.
Be sure to use the correct front and rear jacking posi-
tions on the vehicle; never
use the bumpers or any other
part of the vehicle for jacking
support.
