Detecting Sensor (front view
camera/front radar)
Front view camera
Front view camera is a sensor for
detecting lanes and the front vehi-
cles.
If the sensor is covered with dirt,
snow or other foreign matter, the
sensor’s detection performance will
be degraded and SCC will be tem-
porarily cancelled so that it does not
properly work.Always keep the area in front of the
sensor clean.
For more information of front view
camera, refer to "Lane Keeping
Assist (LKA)"
Front radar
Front radar detects the distance to
the vehicle ahead.
If the sensor or sensor cover is cov-
ered with dirt, snow or other foreign
matter, the sensor’s detection per-
formance will be degraded and SCC
will be temporarily cancelled so that
it does not properly work.
Always keep the area in front of the
sensor clean.OYG059052

Warning message
When the sensor lens cover is
blocked with dirt, snow, or debris,
Smart Cruise Control operation may
stop temporarily. If this occurs, a
warning message will appear on the
LCD display. Remove any dirt, snow,
or debris and clean the radar sensor
lens cover before operating Smart
Cruise Control. Smart Cruise Control
may not properly activate, if the radar
is totally contaminated, or if any sub-
stance is detected after turning ON
the engine (e.g. in an open terrain).
Smart Cruise Control malfunction

CAUTION
Do not install accessories
around the sensor and do not
replace the bumper by your-
self. It may interfere with the
sensor performance.
Always keep the sensor and
bumper clean.
Use only a soft cloth to wash
the vehicle. Do not spray pres-
surized water directly on the
sensor or sensor cover.
Be careful not to apply unnec-
essary force on the radar sen-
sor or sensor cover. If the sen-
sor is forcibly moved out of
proper alignment, Smart
Cruise Control may not oper-
ate correctly. In this case, a
warning message may not be
displayed.
Have the system checked by
an authorized Kia dealer.

the cruise control mode (speed con-
trol function) by doing as follows:
(Continued)
Do not damage the sensor or
sensor area by a strong
impact. If the sensor moves
slightly off position, Smart
Cruise Control will not operate
correctly without any warning
or indicator from the cluster.
If this occurs, have your vehi-
cle checked by an authorized
Kia dealer as soon as possi-
ble.
Use only a genuine Kia sensor
cover for your vehicle. Do not
paint anything on the sensor
cover.
If the front bumper becomes
damaged in the area around
the radar sensor, Smart Cruise
Control may not operate prop-
erly.
(Continued)(Continued)
To prevent sensor cover dam-
age from occurring, wash the
car with a soft cloth.
Do not tint the window or
install stickers, accessories
around the inside mirror
where the camera is installed.
Make sure the frontal camera
installation point does not get
wet.
Do not place reflective
objects(white paper or mirror
etc.) on the crash pad. FCA
may activate unnecessarily
due to reflect of the sunlight.
Do not impact or arbitrarily
remove any front view camera
components.

Your vehicle speed can be reduced
due to a vehicle in the adjacent
lane. Adjust your vehicle speed by
depressing the brake pedal
according to the road condition
ahead and driving condition. Apply
the accelerator pedal and select
the appropriate set speed. Check
to be sure that the road conditions
permit safe operation of the smart
cruise control.
On inclines
During uphill or downhill driving,
Smart Cruise Control may not
detect a moving vehicle in your
lane, and cause your vehicle to
accelerate to the set speed. Also,
the vehicle speed will rapidly down
when the vehicle ahead is recog-
nized suddenly.
Select the appropriate set speed
on inclines and adjust your vehicle
speed by depressing the accelera-
tor or brake pedal according to the
road condition ahead and driving
condition.
Lane changing
A vehicle which moves into your
lane from an adjacent lane cannot
be recognized by the sensor until it
is in the sensor's detection range.
The sensor may not detect imme-
diately when a vehicle cuts in sud-
denly. Always pay attention to the
traffic, road and driving conditions.
If a vehicle which moves into your
lane is slower than your vehicle,
your speed may decrease to main-
tain the distance to the vehicle
ahead.

Driving your vehicle
If a vehicle which moves into your
lane is faster than your vehicle,
your vehicle will accelerate to the
selected speed.
Your vehicle may accelerate when
a vehicle ahead of you disappears.
When you are warned that the
vehicle ahead of you is not detect-
ed, drive with caution.Vehicle recognition
Some vehicles ahead in your lane
cannot be recognized by the sensor
as follows:
- Narrow vehicles such as motorcy-
cles or bicycles
- Vehicles offset to one side
- Slow-moving vehicles or sudden-
decelerating vehicles
- Stopped vehicles
- Vehicles with small rear profiles
such as trailers with no loads

A vehicle ahead cannot be recog-
nized correctly by the sensor if any of
following occurs:
- When the vehicle is pointing
upwards due to overloading in the
liftgate (tailgate)
- While making turns by steering
- When driving to one side of the lane
- When driving on narrow lanes or on
curves
Adjust your vehicle speed by
depressing the brake pedal accord-
ing to the road condition ahead and
driving condition. When vehicles are at a standstill
and the vehicle in front of you
changes to the next lane, be care-
ful when your vehicle starts to
move because it may not recognize
the stopped vehicle in front of you.
In this case, you must maintain a
safe braking distance, and if nec-
essary, depress the brake pedal to
reduce your driving speed in order
to maintain a safe distance. Always look out for pedestrians
when your vehicle is maintaining a
distance with the vehicle ahead.

The lane marker ahead is not visi-
ble due to rain, snow, water on the
road, damaged or stained road
surface, or other factors.
The shadow is on the lane marker
by a median strip, trees, guardrail,
noise barriers, etc.
The lane markers are complicated
or a structure substitutes for the
lines such as a construction area.
There are crosswalk signs or other
symbols on the road.
The lane marker in a tunnel is
stained with oil, etc.
The lane suddenly disappears
such as at the intersection.
There are zigzag lanes and road
signs on the road.When external condition is inter-
vened
The brightness outside changes
suddenly such as when entering or
exiting a tunnel, or when passing
under a bridge.
The brightness outside is too low
such as when the headlamps are
not on at night or the vehicle is
going through a tunnel.
There is a boundary structure in
the roadway such as a concrete
barrier, guardrail and reflector post
that is inadvertently being detected
by the front view camera.
When light coming from a street
light or an oncoming vehicle is
reflected on a wet road surface
such as a puddle in the road.
The field of view in front is
obstructed by sun glare.
There is not enough distance
between you and the vehicle in
front to be able to detect the lane
marker or the vehicle ahead is driv-
ing on the lane marker. Driving on a steep grade, over a
hill, or when driving on a curved
road.
The adverse road conditions cause
excessive vehicle vibrations while
driving.
The surrounding of the inside rear
view mirror temperature is high
due to direct sunlight, etc.
The sensor recognition changes
suddenly when passing over a
speed bump or driving on a steep
up/down or right/left grade
