Air bag non-inflation conditions
In certain low-speed collisions theair bags may not deploy. The air
bags are designed not to deploy in
such cases because they may not
provide benefits beyond the pro-
tection of the seat belts in such col-
lisions. Air bags are not designed to inflate
in rear collisions, because occu-
pants are moved backward by the
force of the impact. In this case,
inflated air bags would not be able
to provide any additional benefit. Front air bags may not inflate in
side impact collisions, because
occupants move to the direction of
the collision, and thus in side
impacts, frontal air bag deployment
would not provide additional occu-
pant protection.

Power trunk non-opening conditions
The power trunk will not open or
close automatically, when the vehicle
is moving more than 2 mph (3 km/h).
✽ ✽ NOTICE
• The power trunk can be operated
when the engine is not running.
However the power trunk opera-
tion consumes large amounts of
vehicle electric power. To prevent
the battery from being discharged,
do not operate it excessively e.g.:
more than approximately 10 times
repeatedly.
• To prevent the battery from being discharged, do not leave the power
trunk in the open position for a
long lime.
• Do not modify or repair any part of the power trunk by yourself. This
must be done by an authorized Kia
dealer.
• When jacking up the vehicle to change a tire or repair the vehicle,
do not operate the power trunk.
This could cause the power trunk
to operate improperly.
• In cold and wet climates, the power trunk may not work prop-
erly due to freezing conditions.
Automatic reversal
During power opening and closing if
the power trunk is blocked by an
object or part of the body, the power
trunk will detect the resistance.
If the resistance is detected while
opening the trunk, it will stop and
move in the opposite direction.
If the resistance is detected while closing the trunk, it will stop and
move in the opposite direction.
WARNING
The chime will sound continu-
ously if you drive over 2 mph (3
km/h) with the trunk opened.
Stop your vehicle immediately
at a safe place and check if your
trunk is opened.

NOTICE
• This system can only sense objects
within the range and location of
the sensors; It can not detect
objects in other areas where sen-
sors are not installed. Also, small
or slim objects, such as poles or
objects located between sensors
may not be detected by the sen-
sors. 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 sys-
tems capabilities and limitations.
Non-operational conditions of
parking distance warning
parking distance warning may
not operate when:
1. Moisture is frozen to the sensor. (It will operate normally when the ice
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. Driving on uneven road surfaces such as unpaved roads, gravel,
bumps, or gradient.
4. Objects generating excessive noise such as vehicle horns, loud
motorcycle engines, or truck air
brakes can interfere with the sen-
sor.
5. The weather conditions produce heavy rain or water spray.
6. Wireless transmitters or mobile phones present near the sensor.
Detecting range may decrease
when:
1. Outside air temperature is extremely hot or cold.
2. The sensor is covered with foreign matter such as snow or water.
(The sensing range will return to
normal when removed.)
The following objects may not be
recognized by the sensor:
1. Sharp or slim objects such as ropes, chains or small poles.
