Driving your vehicle
Front Camera
The Front Camera is a sensor
detecting the lane. If the sensor is
covered with snow, rain or foreign
substance, the system may tem-
porarily be cancelled and not work
properly until the cancellation due to
the degradation of the sensor's
detection performance. Always keep
the sensor clean.
* Refer to Lane Keeping Assist (LKA)system for cautions for the front
camera sensor.
Rear Corner Radars
The Rear Corner Radars are the
sensors inside the rear bumper for
detecting the side/rear areas. Always
keep the rear bumper clean for prop-
er operation of the system.CAUTION
The system may not work properly when the bumper hasbeen damaged, or if the rearbumper has been replaced orrepaired.
The sensing range differs some- what according to the width ofthe road. When the road is nar-row, the system may detectother vehicles in the next lane.
On the other hand, when the road is wide, the system maynot detect vehicles on bothlanes and may not warn.
The system may turn off if inter- fered by electromagnetic waves.
Always keep the sensors clean. NEVER arbitrarily disassem- ble the sensor component norapply any impact on the sen-sor component.
(Continued)
(Continued) Be careful not to apply unnec- essary force on the radar sen-sor or sensor cover. If the sen-sor is forcibly moved out ofproper alignment, the systemmay not operate correctly. Ifthis occurs, a warning mes-sage may not be displayed.Have the vehicle inspected byan authorized K900 Kia dealer.
Do not apply foreign objects such as a bumper sticker or abumper guard near the radarsensor or apply paint to thesensor area. Doing so mayadversely affect the perform-ance of the sensor.
NEVER install any acces- sories or stickers on the frontwindshield, nor tint the frontwindshield.
