When the BCW canceled warning
message is displayed in the cluster,
check to make sure that the rear
bumper is free from any dirt or snow
in the areas where the sensor is
located. Remove any dirt, snow, or
foreign material that could interfere
with the radar sensors. After any dirt or debris is removed,
the BCA should operate normally
after about 10 minutes of driving the
vehicle.
If the system still does not operate
normally have your vehicle inspected
by an authorized K900 Kia dealer.

System description
Rear Cross-Traffic CollisionWarning (RCCW) System
The Rear Cross-Traffic Collision
Warning (RCCW) System uses radar
sensors to monitor the approaching
cross traffic from the left and right
side of the vehicle when your vehicle
is in reverse.
The blind spot detection range varies
relative to the approaching vehicle
speed.
Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist (RCCA) System
The Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-
Avoidance Assist (RCCA) System
monitors approaching cross traffic
from the left and right side of the
vehicle when your vehicle is
approaching.
The Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-
Avoidance Assist (RCCA) System
may activate the Electronic Stability
Control (ESC) in accordance with a
colliding possibility with an
approaching vehicle. It is to lower the
colliding risk or mitigate the colliding
damage.
