The Parking Assist System is not a
substitute for proper and safe park-
ing and backing-up procedures.
Always drive safely and use caution
when parking. The Parking Assist
System may not detect every object
behind or in front of the vehicle.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 in)
in front or 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. When the vehicle moving, pay
attention to your surroundings.
Operation of the parking
assist system
Operating condition
This system activates when the
parking assist button is pressed with
the Engine Start/Stop Button ON.
The parking assist button turns on automatically and activates the park-
ing assist system when you shift the
gear to the R (Reverse) position.

assist system
Never rely solely on the parking
assist system. Always perform
a visual inspection to make
sure the vehicle is clear of all
obstructions before moving the
vehicle in any direction. Stop
immediately if you are aware of
a child anywhere near your
vehicle. Some objects may not
be detected by the sensors, due
to the object's size or material.

The sensing distance while back-
ing up is approximately 100 cm (39
in.) when you are driving less than
10 km/h (6.2 mph).
The sensing distance while moving forward is approximately 100 cm
(39 in.) when you are driving less
than 10 km/h (6.2 mph).
When more than two objects are sensed at the same time, the clos-
est one will be recognized first.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
The system may not detect and
object if the distance from the object
is already less than approximately
25 cm (10 in.) when the system is
turned ON.

Non-operational conditions of
parking assist system
Parking assist system may notoperate normally 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 normal when
removed.)
4. The parking assist button is off.
There is a possibility of parking assist system malfunction 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
can interfere with the sensor.
3. Heavy rain or water spray.
4. Wireless transmitters or mobile phones present near the sensor.
5. Sensor is covered with snow.
Detecting range may decrease when :
1. Outside air temperature is extremely hot or cold.
2. Undetectable objects smaller than 1 m (39 in) and narrower than 14
cm (5.5 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 (12 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.
Self-diagnosis
If you don’t hear an audible warning
sound or if the buzzer sounds inter-
mittently when shifting the shift lever
into the R (Reverse) position, this
may indicate a malfunction in the
parking assist system. If this occurs,
have the system checked by an
authorized Kia dealer.
Your new vehicle warranty does not
cover any accidents or damage to the
vehicle or injuries to its occupants
related to a parking assist system.
Always drive safely and cautiously.

Auto light position (if equipped)
When the light switch is in the AUTO
light position, the taillights and head-
lights will turn ON or OFF automati-
cally depending on the amount of
light outside the vehicle.
Never place anything over the sen-sor (1) located on the instrument
panel. This will ensure better auto-
light system control.
Don’t clean the sensor using a win- dow cleaner. The cleaner may
leave a light film which could inter-
fere with sensor operation. If your vehicle has window tint or
other types of metallic coating on
the front windshield, the Auto light
system may not work properly.
High beam operation
To turn on the high beam headlights,
push the lever away from you. Pull it
back for low beams. The high beam
indicator will light when the headlight
high beams are switched on. To prevent
the battery from being discharged, do
not leave the lights on for a prolonged
time while the engine is not running.

This indicator illuminates
when the auto defogging
system senses the mois-
ture of inside the wind-
shield and operates.
If more moisture is in the vehicle,
higher steps operate as follow. For
example if auto defogging does not
defog inside the windshield at step 1
Outside air position, it tries to defog
again at step 2 Blowing air toward
the windshield.
Step 1 : Outside air position
Step 2 :Blowing air toward the wind-
shield
Step 3 : Increasing air flow toward the windshield
Step 4 : Operating the air conditioning
Step 5 : M aximizing the air condi-
tioning To cancel or reset the Auto Defogging
System

Driving your vehicle
The Autonomous Emergency
Braking (AEB) system is designed to
detect and monitor the vehicle ahead
or detect a pedestrian in the roadway
through radar signals and camera
recognition to warn the driver that a
collision is imminent, and if neces-
sary, apply emergency braking.✽ ✽NOTICE
Take the following precautions when
using the Autonomous Emergency
Braking (AEB):
• This system is only a supplemental
system 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 in accor- dance with the road conditions or
while cornering.
• Always drive cautiously to prevent unexpected and sudden situations
from occurring. AEB does not stop
the vehicle completely and is not a
collision avoidance system.
System Setting and Activation
System setting
The driver can activate the AEB by
placing the ignition switch to the ON
position and by selecting 'User
Settings', 'Driving Assist', and 'AEB
(Autonomous Emergency Braking
System)'. The AEB deactivates, when
the driver deselects the system set-
ting.
AUTONOMOUS EMERGENCY BRAKING (AEB) (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING- Autonomous
Emergency Braking (AEB)
Limitations
The AEB system is a supple-
mental system and is not a sub-
stitute for safe driving prac-
tices. It is the responsibility of
the driver to always check the
speed and distance to the vehi-
cle ahead to ensure it is safety
to use the AEB system.
