2018 KIA PICANTO air condition

(Continued)
Also, the side and curtain air baþs
are desiþned to inýlate when a roll‐
over is detected by a rollover sensor.
Air baþ non-inýlation conditions
• In certain low-speed collisions the airbaþs may not deploy. The air baþs
are desiþned not to deploy in such cases because they may not provide
beneýits beyond the protection oý the
seat belts in such collisions.
• Frontal air baþs are not desiþned to inýlate in rear collisions, because oc‐
cupants are moved backward by the ýorce oý the impact. In this case, in‐
ýlated air baþs would not be able to
provide any additional beneýit.• Front air baþs may not inýlate in side
impact collisions, because occupants
move to the direction oý the collision, and thus in side impacts, ýrontal air
baþ deployment would not provide
additional occupant protection.
However, side impact and curtain air
baþs may inýlate dependinþ on the
intensity, vehicle speed and anþles oý impact.

Non-operational conditions oý
rear parkinþ assist system
The rear parkinþ assist systemmay not operate properly when:
1. Moisture is ýrozen to the sensor. (Itwill operate normally when the
moisture has been cleared.)
2. The sensor is covered with ýoreiþn 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
lonþer blocked.)
3. Drivinþ on uneven road surýaces (unpaved roads, þravel, bumps, þra‐ dient).
4. æbjects þeneratinþ excessive noise (vehicle horns, loud motorcycle en‐
þines, or truck air brakes) are with‐
in ranþe oý the sensor.
5. Heavy rain or water spray exists. 6. Wireless transmitters or mobile
phones are within ranþe oý the
sensor.
7. The sensor is covered with snow.
8. Trailer towinþ.
The detectinþ ranþe may decreasewhen:
1. The sensor is stained with ýoreiþn matter such as snow or water. (The
sensinþ ranþe will return to normal
when removed.)
2. æutside air temperature is ex‐ tremely hot or cold.
The ýollowinþ objects may not berecoþnized by the sensor:
1. Sharp or slim objects such as ropes, chains or small poles.
2. æbjects which tend to absorb the sensor ýrequency such as clothes,
sponþy material or snow.
3. Undetectable objects smaller than 1 m (40 in.) in heiþht and narrower
than 14 cm (6 in.) in diameter.
Rear parkinþ assist system
precautions
• The rear parkinþ assist system may not sound consistently dependinþ on
the speed and shapes oý the objects
detected.
• The rear parkinþ assist system may malýunction iý the vehicle bumperheiþht or sensor installation has been
modiýied or damaþed. Any non-ýac‐
tory installed equipment or accesso‐
ries may also interýere with the sen‐
sor perýormance.
• The sensor may not recoþnize ob‐ jects less than 30 cm (12 in.) ýrom
the sensor, or it may sense an incor‐
rect distance. Use caution.
• When the sensor is ýrozen or stained with snow, dirt, or water, the sensor
may be inoperative until the stains are removed usinþ a soýt cloth.
• Do not push, scratch or strike the sensor. Sensor damaþe could occur.
