Adding equipment to or modi-
fying your air bag-equipped
vehicle
If you modify your vehicle by chang-
ing your vehicle's frame, bumper sys-
tem, front end or side sheet metal or
ride height, this may affect the opera-
tion of your vehicle's air bag system.
Air bag warning label
Air bag warning labels, some
required by the Canada Motor
Vehicle Safety Standards (CMVSS),
are attached to the sunvisor to alert
the driver and passengers of poten-
tial risks of the air bag system
WARNING- Tampering
with SRS
Do not tamper with or discon-
nect SRS wiring, or other com-
ponents of the SRS system.
Doing so could result in the
accidental inflation of the air
bags or by rendering the SRS
inoperative.
WARNING- Towing Vehicle
Always have the ignition off
when your vehicle is being
towed. The side air bags may
inflate if the vehicle is tilted
such as when being towed
because of the rollover sensors
in the vehicle.

ation is approximately 120 cm (47
in.) at the rear bumper center area,
60 cm (23.5 in.) at the rear bumper
both side area.
When more than two objects are sensed at the same time, the clos-
est one will be recognized first.Types of warning sound

bumper: Buzzer beeps intermit-
tently.
When an object is 60 cm to 31 cm (24 in. to 12 in.) from the rear
bumper: Buzzer beeps more fre-
quently.

when:
1. Moisture is frozen to the sensor. (It will operate normally when the
moisture has been cleared.)
2. The 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 (unpaved roads, gravel, bumps,
gradient).
4. Objects generating excessive noise (vehicle horns, loud motor-
cycle engines, or truck air brakes)

Driving your vehicle
- The radar or camera or cameralens is damaged.
- If the headlights of the vehicle are not used at night or in the tunnel
section, or the light is too weak
- If street light or the light of the vehi- cle coming from the opposite is
reflected or when sunlight is
reflected by the water on the road
surface
- When the back light is projected in the direction of the vehicle's motion
(including the headlights of vehi-
cles)
- Road sign, shadow on the road, tunnel entrance, toll gate, partial
pavement
- If the moist on the front windshield is not entirely removed or it is
frozen
- The weather is foggy
- The radar/camera sensor recogni- tion is limited.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
The system may temporarily cancel
due to the strong electric waves.
Pay great caution to the vehicle in
front, when it has heavy loading
extended rearward, or when it has
higher ground clearance.
The FCA system is designed to detect and monitor the vehicle
ahead or detect a pedestrian in the
roadway through radar signals and
camera recognition. It is not
designed to detect bicycles, motor-
cycles, or smaller wheeled objects
such as lug- gage bags, shopping
carts, or strollers.
The FCA does not operate in a cer- tain situation. Thus, never test-
operate the FCA against a person
or an object. It may cause a severe
injury or even death.
When replacing or reinstalling the windshield, front bumper or
radar/camera after removal, we
recommend you to have the vehi-
cle inspected by an authorized Kia
dealer.
WARNING - Testing the
FCA
The FCA does not operate in
certain situations. Thus, never
test-operate the FCA against a
person or an object. It may
cause a severe injury or even
death.
WARNING - FCA and
Towing
Cancel the FCA in the User
Settings on the LCD display,
before towing another vehicle.
While towing, the brake applica-
tion may adversely affect your
vehicle safety.

Always be cautious for vehicles that
are taller with higher clearance, or
vehicles carrying loads that stick out
of the back of the vehicle.

WARNING - Inclines &
Towing
Do not use smart cruise control
system on steep inclines or
when towing another vehicle or
trailer since such extreme load-
ing can interfere with your vehi-
cle's ability to maintain the
selected speed.WARNING
- Safe Use of smart cruise control system
The smart cruise control system
can provide you with an addition-
al level of safety and fatigue
reduction. However you must
maintain careful observation of
the roadway in front 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
vehicle from another lane drives
quickly in front of you.
