the ABS (The normal braking sys-
tem will still be operational without
the assistance of the anti-lock
brake system).
In this case, have your vehicle
inspected by an authorized Kia
dealer.
Electronic

The parking assist system assists
the driver during movement of the
vehicle by chiming if any object is
sensed within the distance of 100 cm
(39.3 in ) in front or 120 cm (47 in)
behind the vehicle.This system is a supplemental sys-
tem 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 limit-
ed. Whenever moving pay as much
attention to what is in front of and
behind you as you would in a vehicle
without a parking assist system.
The parking assist system should
only be considered as a supplemen-
tary function. The driver must check
the front and rear view. The opera-
tional function of the parking assist
system can be affected by many fac-
tors and conditions of the surround-
ings, so the responsibility rests
always with the driver.
Operation of the parking assist
system
Operating condition
• This system will activate when the
parking assist button is pressed
with the engine running.

• Sensing distance in backing up is
approximately 120 cm (47 in) when
you are driving less than 10 km/h
(6.21 mph).
• Sensing distance in moving for-
ward is approximately 60 cm
(23.62 in) when you are driving
less than 10 km/h (6.21 mph).
• When more than two objects are
sensed at the same time, the clos-
est one will be recognized first.
• If you move the shift lever to the R
position with the engine start/stop
button in the ON position and the
parking assist system in OFF, the
parking assist system will operate
automatically. But it will turn off
automatically, when the vehicle
speed exceeds than 20 km/h

Features of your vehicle
Non-operational conditions of
parking assist system
Parking assist system may not
operate when:
1. Moisture is frozen to the sensor. (It
will operate normally when mois-
ture melts.)
2. Sensor is covered with foreign
matter, such as snow or water, or
the sensor cover is blocked. (It will
operate normally when the materi-
al is removed or the sensor is no
longer blocked.)
3. Sensor is stained with foreign mat-
ter such as snow or water.
(Sensing range will return to nor-
mal when removed.)
There is a possibility that the park-
ing assist system may not operate
when:
1. Driving on uneven road surfaces
such as unpaved roads, gravel,
bumps, or gradient.
2. Objects generating excessive noise
such as vehicle horns, loud motor-
cycle engines, or truck air brakes
interfere with the sensor.
3. Heavy rain or water spray.
4. Wireless transmitters or mobile
phones are present near the sen-
sor.
5. Sensor is covered with snow.
Detection range may decrease
when:
1. Outside air temperature is
extremely hot or cold.
2. There are undetectable objects
smaller than 1 m (39.37 in) and
narrower than 14 cm (5.51 in) in
diameter.
The following objects may not be
recognized by the sensor:
1. Sharp or slim objects such as
ropes, chains or small poles.
2. Objects, which tend to absorb sen-
sor frequency such as clothes,
spongy material or snow.

✽NOTICE
1. The warning may not sound
sequentially depending on the
speed and shapes of the objects
detected.
2. The parking assist system may
malfunction if the vehicle bumper
height or sensor installation has
been modified. Any non-factory
installed equipment or accessories
may also interfere with the sensor
performance.
3. Sensor may not recognize objects
less than 30 cm (11.81 in) from the
sensor, or it may sense an incor-
rect distance. Use with caution.
4. When the sensor is frozen or
stained with snow or water, the
sensor may be inoperative until
the stains are removed using a
soft cloth.
5. Do not push, scratch or strike the
sensor with any hard objects that
could damage the surface of the
sensor. Sensor damage could occur.
✽NOTICE
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,
or objects located between sensors
may not be detected.
Always visually check in front and
behind the vehicle when driving.
Be sure to inform any drivers in the
vehicle that may be unfamiliar with
the system regarding the system’s
capabilities and limitations.WARNING- Parking
Assist System
Never rely solely on the parking
assist system when backing up.
Always perform a visual inspec-
tion to make sure the vehicle is
clear of all obstructions before
moving the vehicle in any direc-
tion. Pay close attention when
the vehicle is driven close to
objects on the road, particularly
pedestrians, and especially
children. Be aware that some
objects may not be detected by
the sensors, due to the objects
distance, size or material, all of
which can limit the effective-
ness of the sensor.
