If the transmitter is in close proximi-
ty to your cell phone or smart phone,
the signal from the transmitter could
be blocked by normal operation of
your cell phone or smart phone. This
is especially important when the
phone is active such as making
calls, receiving calls, text messag-
ing, and/or sending/receiving
emails. Avoid placing the transmitter
and your cell phone or smart phone
in the same pants or jacket pocket
and maintain adequate distance
between the two devices. This device complies with
Industry Canada licence-exempt
RSS standard(s).

tery, contact an authorized Kia dealer.

Parking distance warning-
reverse precautions
The parking distance warning-
reverse system may not sound
consistently depending on the
speed and shapes of the objects
detected.
The parking distance warning- reverse system may malfunction if
the vehicle bumper height or sen-
sor installation has been modified
or damaged. Any non-factory
installed equipment or accessories
may also interfere with the sensor
performance.
The sensor may not recognize objects less than 40 cm (15 in.)
from the sensor, or it may sense an
incorrect distance. Use caution.
When the sensor is frozen or cov- ered with snow, dirt, or water, the
sensor may be inoperative until the
material is removed using a soft
cloth.
To prevent damage, do not push, scratch or strike the sensor.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
This system can only sense objects
within the range and location of the
sensors. It cannot detect objects in
other areas where sensors are not
installed. Also, small or slim objects,
such as poles or objects located
between sensors may not be detected
by the sensors. Pay close attention
when the vehicle is driven close to
objects on the road, particularly
pedestrians, and especially children.
Always visually check behind the
vehicle when backing up.
Be sure to inform any drivers of 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 gear to the
R (Reverse) position, this may indi-
cate a malfunction in the parking dis-
tance warning-reverse system. If this
occurs, have your vehicle checked by
an authorized Kia dealer as soon as
possible.
✽ ✽NOTICE
Your new vehicle warranty does not
cover any accidents or damage to
the vehicle or injuries to its occu-
pants. Always drive safely and cau-
tiously.
