The reverse parking distance warning
assists the driver during backward
movement of the vehicle by chiming if
any object is sensed within a distance
of 120 cm (47 in.) behind the vehicle.
This system is a supplemental system
and is not intended to, nor does it,
replace the need for the driver's
extreme care and attention. The sens-
ing range and objects detectable by
the back sensors ( ➀) are limited.
Whenever backing-up, pay as much
attention to what is behind you as you
would in a vehicle without a reverse
parking distance warning.
Operation of the reverse park-
ing distance warning
Operating condition
This system will activate when backing up with the ignition switch
ON.
If the vehicle is moving at a speed
over 5 km/h (3 mph), the system
may not be activated correctly.
The sensing distance while the back-up warning system is in oper-
ation is approximately 120 cm (47
in.) at the rear bumper center area,
and 60 cm (23.5 in.) at the rear
bumper side area.
When more than two objects are sensed at the same time, the clos-
est one will be recognized first.
REVERSE PARKING DISTANCE WARNING (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING - Reverse park-
ing distance warning
Never rely solely on the reverse
parking distance warning.
Always perform a visual inspec-
tion to make sure the vehicle is
clear of all obstructions before
moving the vehicle in any direc-
tion. Stop immediately if you are
aware of a child anywhere near
your vehicle. Some objects may
not be detected by the sensors,
due to the object's size or mate-
rial.

Types of warning sound
When an object is 120 cm to 61 cm(47 in. to 24 in. ) from the rear
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.

Buzzer sounds continuously.
Non-operational conditions of
reverse parking distance
warning
The reverse parking distance
warning may not operate properly
when:
1. Moisture is frozen to the sensor. (It will operate normally once the
moisture clears.)
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,
gradients, etc.).
4. Objects generating excessive noise (vehicle horns, loud motor-
cycle engines, or truck air brakes)
are within range of the sensor.
5. Rain or water spray exists.
6. Wireless transmitters or mobile phones are within range of the
sensor.
7. The sensor is covered with snow.
8. Trailer towing The detecting range may decrease
when:
1. The sensor is covered with foreign
matter such as snow or water.
(The sensing range will return to
normal when removed.)
2. Outside air temperature is extremely hot or cold.
The following objects may not be
recognized by the sensor:
1. Sharp or slim objects such as ropes, chains or small poles.
2. Objects which tend to absorb the sensor frequency such as clothes,
sound absorbent material or snow.
3. Undetectable objects smaller than 1 m (40 in.) in height and narrower
than 14 cm (6 in.) in diameter.

reverse parking distance
warning precautions
The reverse parking distance
warning system may not sound
consistently depending on the
speed and shapes of the objects
detected.
The reverse parking distance warn- ing system may malfunction if the
vehicle bumper height or sensor
installation has been modified or
damaged. Any non-factory installed
equipment or accessories may also
interfere with the sensor perform-
ance.
The sensor may not recognize objects less than 40 cm (15 in.)
from the sensor, or it may sense an
incorrect distance. Use caution.
When the sensor is frozen or cov- ered with snow, dirt, or water, the
sensor may be inoperative until the
material is removed using a soft
cloth.
To prevent damage, do not push, scratch or strike the sensor.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
This system can only sense objects
within the range and location of the
sensors. It cannot detect objects in
other areas where sensors are not
installed. Also, small or slim objects,
such as poles or objects located
between sensors may not be detected
by the sensors. Pay close attention
when the vehicle is driven close to
objects on the road, particularly
pedestrians, and especially children.
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 system’s
capabilities and limitations.
Self-diagnosis
If you don’t hear an audible warning
sound or if the buzzer sounds inter-
mittently when shifting the gear to the
R (Reverse) position, this may indi-
cate a malfunction in the reverse
parking distance warning system. If
this occurs, have your vehicle
checked by an authorized Kia dealer
as soon as possible.
✽ ✽NOTICE
Your new vehicle warranty does not
cover any accidents or damage to
the vehicle or injuries to its occu-
pants. Always drive safely and cau-
tiously.

Features of your vehicle
The rear view monitor will activate
with the ignition switch ON and the
shift lever in the R (Reverse) position.
The system is a supplemental sys-
tem that shows the area behind the
vehicle through the audio screen
while backing up. It is the responsibility of the driver
to always check the inside/outside
rearview mirrors and the area
behind the vehicle before and
while backing up.
Always keep the camera lens clean. If the lens is covered with
foreign matter, the camera may not
operate normally.
REAR VIEW MONITOR
WARNING - Backing &
using camera
Never rely solely on the rear view
camera. You must always use
other methods of viewing the
area behind you, including look-
ing over both shoulders as well
as continuously checking all
three rear view mirrors. Due to
the difficulty of ensuring that the
area behind you remains clear,
always back-up slowly and stop
immediately if you suspect that a
person, and especially a child,
might be behind you.
