CAUTION
Never place anything over the
sensor (1) located on the
instrument panel, this will
ensure better auto-light sys-
tem control.
Don’t clean the sensor using a
window cleaner, the cleaner
may leave a light film which
could interfere with sensor
operation.

Auto control
The rain sensor (A) located on the
upper end of the windshield glass
senses the amount of rainfall and
controls the wiping cycle for the
proper interval. The more it rains, the
faster the wiper operates. When the
rain stops, the wiper stops.To vary the speed setting, turn the
speed control knob (1).
If the wiper switch is set in AUTO
mode when the Engine Start/Stop
button is ON, the wiper will operate
once to perform a self-check of the
system. Set the wiper to OFF posi-
tion when the wiper is not in use.
OYG040455N
CAUTION
When washing the vehicle, set
the wiper switch in the OFF
position to stop the auto wiper
operation.
The wiper may operate and be
damaged if the switch is set in
the AUTO mode while washing
the vehicle.
Do not remove the sensor
cover located on the upper
end of the passenger side
windshield glass. Damage to
system parts could occur and
may not be covered by your
vehicle warranty.
When starting the vehicle in
winter, set the wiper switch in
the OFF position. Otherwise,
wipers may operate and ice
may damage the windshield
wiper blades. Always remove
all snow and ice and defrost
the windshield properly prior
to operating the windshield
wipers.
WARNING
When the Engine Start/Stop
button is ON and the windshield
wiper switch is placed in the
AUTO mode, use caution in the
following situations to avoid
any injury to the hands or other
parts of the body:
Do not touch the upper end of
the windshield glass facing
the rain sensor.
Do not wipe the upper end of
the windshield glass with a
damp or wet cloth.
Do not put pressure on the
windshield glass.

This indicator illuminates
when the auto defogging
system senses the mois-
ture on the inside of the
windshield and operates.
The Auto defogging system address-
es excess moisture on the inside of
the windshield in stages. For exam-
ple, if auto defogging does not defog
inside the windshield at step 1
Outside air position, it tries to defog
again at step 2 Operating the air con-
ditioning.
Step 1 : Outside air position
Step 2 : Operating the air condition-
ing
Step 3 : Blowing air flow toward the
windshield
Step 4 : Increasing air flow toward
the windshieldTo cancel or reset the Auto Defogging
System
To cancel or set the Auto Defogging
System, press the Front Windshield
Defroster button for 3 seconds while
Engine Start/Stop button is On.
The indicator of Front Windshield
Defroster button or “ADS OFF” mes-
sage will blink or display 3 times in
0.5 second interval and the system
will be cancelled or set.

FCA is to reduce or to avoid accident
risk. It recognizes the distance from
the vehicle ahead, the pedestrian or
the cyclist through the sensors (i.e.
front view camera and front radar),
and, if necessary, warns the driver of
accident risk with the warning mes-
sage or the warning alarms and
apply emergency braking.
❈FCA stands for Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist.
❈Sensor fusion (front view camera
+ front radar) FCA operates for the
vehicle ahead, the pedestrian or
the cyclist in front.System setting and activation
Forward Safety
The driver can activate FCA by plac-
ing the ENGINE START/STOP but-
ton to the ON position and by select-
ing:
“Settings →Vehicle →Driver
Assistance →Forward Safety”
For more details, please scan the
QR code in a separately supplied
Car Infotainment System Quick
Reference Guide.
- If you select “Active Assist”, FCA
activates. FCA produces warning
messages and warning alarms in
accordance with the collision risk
levels. Also, it controls the brakes
in accordance with the collision
risk levels.
- If you select “Warning Only”, FCA
activates and produces only warn-
ing alarms in accordance with the
collision risk levels. You should
control the brake directly because
FCA do not control the brake.
- If you select “Off ”, FCA deactivates
FORWARD COLLISION-AVOIDANCE ASSIST (FCA) (SENSOR FUSION) (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING
Take the following precautions
when using Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist :
This system is only a supple-
mental system and it is not
intended to, nor does it
replace the need for the
extreme care and attention of
the driver. The sensing range
and objects detectable by the
sensors are limited. Pay atten-
tion to the road conditions at
all times.
NEVER drive too fast in accor-
dance with the road condi-
tions or while cornering.
Always drive cautiously to
prevent unexpected and sud-
den situations from occur-
ring. FCA does not stop the
vehicle completely and is only
intended to help mitigate an
imminent collision.

Detecting sensors (front view
camera/front radar)
The sensors are that detecting the
distance to vehicles ahead, pedestri-
an or cyclist.In bad weather conditions such as
heavy rain, heavy snow, and fog, or
when sensor is covered by foreign
material, dust, tec., the sensors will
be degraded and the system will be
temporarily disabled.
Always keep the sensor clean.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
• Do not install any accessories,
such as license plate molding or
sticker, on the sensor area. Nor
arbitrarily replace the bumper.
Those may adversely affect the
sensing performance.
• Always keep the sensor/bumper
area clean.
• Use only soft cloths to wash the
vehicle. Also, do not spray highly-
pressurized water on the sensor
installed on the bumper.
• Be careful not to apply unneces-
sary force on the frontal sensor
area. When the sensor moves out
of the correct position due to
external force, the system may not
normally operate even without the
warning light or message. In this
case, have your vehicle inspected
by an authorized Kia dealer.
• Use only the genuine Kia sensor
cover. Do not arbitrarily apply
paint on the sensor cover.
