Sensor malfunction indicator
If the sensor or cover is
dirty or obscured with
foreign matter such as
snow, the indicator will
illuminate. Clean the
sensor by using a soft
cloth. SCC malfunction indicator
The warning light illumi-
nates when the vehicle
to vehicle distance con-
trol system is not func-
tioning normally.
Take your vehicle to an authorized Kia dealer
and have the system
checked. Always keep the sensor and
bumper clean.
Use only a genuine Kia sensor cover for your vehicle.
Do not install accessories around the sensor and do not replace the
bumper by yourself. It may interfere
with the sensor performance.
Do not damage the sensor or sen- sor area by a strong impact. If the
sensor moves slightly off position,
the SCC will not operate correctly.
If this occurs, have your vehicle
checked by an authorized Kia deal-
er as soon as possible.
CAUTION- Sensor
Damage
To prevent sensor cover dam-age from occurring, wash thecar with a soft cloth.

Driving your vehicle
Your vehicle speed can be reduceddue to a vehicle in the adjacent
lane. Adjust your vehicle speed by
depressing the brake pedal
according to the road condition
ahead and driving condition. Apply
the accelerator pedal and select
the appropriate set speed. Check
to be sure that the road conditions
permit safe operation of the SCC.
On inclines
During uphill or downhill driving,the SCC may not detect a moving
vehicle in your lane, and cause
your vehicle to accelerate to the
set speed. Also, the vehicle speed
will rapidly slow down when the
vehicle ahead is recognized sud-
denly.
Select the appropriate set speed on inclines and adjust your vehicle
speed by depressing the accelera-
tor or brake pedal according to the
road condition ahead and driving
condition.
Lane changing
A vehicle which moves into yourlane from an adjacent lane cannot
be recognized by the sensor until it
is in the sensor's detection range.
The sensor may not detect imme- diately when a vehicle cuts in sud-
denly. Always pay attention to the
traffic, road and driving conditions.
If a vehicle which moves into your lane is slower than your vehicle,
your speed may decrease to main-
tain the distance to the vehicle
ahead.

If a vehicle which moves into your
lane is faster than your vehicle,
your vehicle will accelerate to the
selected speed.
Your vehicle may accelerate whena vehicle ahead of you disappears.
When you are warned that the vehicle ahead of you is not detect-
ed, drive with caution.Vehicle recognition
Some vehicles ahead in your lane
cannot be recognized by the sensor
as follows:
- Narrow vehicles such as motorcy-cles or bicycles
- Vehicles offset to one side
- Slow-moving vehicles or sudden- decelerating vehicles
- Stopped vehicles
- Vehicles with small rear profile such as trailers with no loads

Driving your vehicle
A vehicle ahead cannot be recog-
nized correctly by the sensor if any of
following occurs:
- When the vehicle is pointingupwards due to overloading in the
trunk
- While making turns by steering
- When driving to one side of the lane
- When driving on narrow lanes or on curves
Adjust your vehicle speed by
depressing the brake pedal accord-
ing to the road condition ahead and
driving condition. When vehicles are at a standstill
and the vehicle in front of you
changes to the next lane, be care-
ful when your vehicle starts to
move because it may not recog-
nize the stopped vehicle in front of
you. Always look out for pedestrians
when your vehicle is maintaining a
distance with the vehicle ahead.

Always be cautious for vehicles
with higher height or vehicles car-
rying loads that sticks out to the
back of the vehicle. - After an engine start, please stop
for several seconds. If system ini-
tialization is not completed, the
SCC does not normally operate.
- After an engine start, if any objects are not detected or the sensor
cover is obscured with foreign sub-
stances, there is a possibility that
the SCC system may not work.
- Below conditions are not allowed: over baggage loading in a trunk,
suspension remodeling, tire
replacement with unauthorized
tires or tires with different worn-out
and pressure levels.

WARNING - Safe Use of
SCC
The SCC can provide you with
an additional level of safety and
fatigue reduction. However you
must maintain careful observa-
tion of the roadway in from of
and around you and maintain
control of your vehicle and
spacing around other vehicles
as you normally would. For
example, this will require you to
apply the brakes as needed
when coming upon a slower
moving vehicle, or when a vehi-
cle from another lane drives
quickly in front of you.
WARNING - Inclines & Towing
Do not use SCC on steep
inclines or when towing another
vehicle or trailer since such
extreme loading can interfere
with your vehicle's ability to
maintain the selected speed.

The Blind Spot Detection System
(BSD) uses a radar sensor to alert
the driver.
It senses the rear side territory of the
vehicle and provides and indication
to the driver.(1) BSD (Blind Spot Detection)
The warning range depends on
your vehicle speed. However, if
your vehicle is about 10 km/h
(6 mph) faster than the other vehi-
cle, the system will not warn you.
(2) LCA (Lane Change Assist) When a vehicle approaches you
at high speed, the system will
warn you.
(3) RCTA (Rear Cross Traffic Alert) When your vehicle moves rear-
ward, the sensor detects the
approaching vehicle in the left
and right side, the system will
warn you.

WARNING- BSDLimitations
The Blind Spot Detection System (BSD) is a supplemen-
tal system. Do not solely rely
on the system but always pay
attention to drive safely.
The Blind Spot Detection System may not detect every
object alongside the vehicle
and is not a substitute for
proper and safe lane chang-
ing procedures. Always drive
safely and use caution when
changing lanes.

Driving your vehicle
If a vehicle is detected within the
boundary of the system, a warning
light will illuminate on the outside
rearview mirror.
If the detected vehicle is not in
detecting range, the warning will turn
off according to driving conditions.The second stage alarm will activate
when:
1.The first stage alert is on
2.The turn signal is on to change a
lane
When the second stage alert is acti-
vated, a warning light will blink on the
outside rearview mirror and a alarm
will sound.
If you move the turn signal switch to
the original position, the second
stage alert will be deactivated.
Detecting sensor
The sensors are located inside of the
rear bumper.
Always keep the rear bumper clean
for the system to work properly.

RCTA (Rear Cross Traffic Alert)
When your vehicle moves backwards
from a parking position, the sensor
detects approaching vehicles to the
left or right side direction and gives
information to the driver.
Operating conditions
Select RCTA (Rear Cross TrafficAlert) in "User Settings" under
"Driving Assist" on the instrument
cluster. The system will turn on and
standby to activate. Select RCTA again, to turn the sys-
tem off.
If the vehicle is turned off and on again, the RCTA system will return
to the state right before the vehicle
was turned off. Always turn the
RCTA system off when not in use.
The system operates when the vehicle speed is below 10 km/h
(6.2 mph) with the shift lever in R
(Reverse).
The RCTA (Rear Cross Traffic Alert) detecting range is 0.5m ~
20m based on the side direction. If
the approaching vehicle speed is
4 km/h (2.5 mph) ~ 36 km/h (22
mph) within sensing range, it is
detected. However, the system
sensing range is different base on
conditions. Always pay attention to
the surrounding.
