WARNING
Driver Attention Warning(DAW) system is not a substi-
tute for safe driving practices,
but a convenience function
only. It is the responsibility of
the driver to always drive cau-
tiously to prevent unexpected
and sudden situations from
occurring. Pay attention to the
road conditions at all times.
It may suggest a break according to the driver’s driv-
ing pattern or habits even if

fatigued.
A driver who feels fatigued should take a break even
though there is no break sug-
gestion by the Driver
Attention Warning system.

NOTICE
Driver Attention Warning (DAW)
system utilizes the camera sensor on
the front windshield for its opera-
tion. To keep the camera sensor in
the best condition, you should
observe the followings:
- Do not disassemble the camera
when installing tint on the windows
or applying any type of coatings or
accessories. If you disassemble or
reassemble the camera, take your
vehicle to an authorized K900 Kia
dealer and have the system
checked.
- Do not locate any reflective objects (i.e. white paper, mirror)
over the dashboard. Any light
reflection may cause a mal-func-
tion of Driver Attention Warning
(DAW) system.
- Use extreme caution to keep the camera sensor out of water.
- Do not disassemble the camera assembly, nor apply any impact on
the camera assembly.
• Playing the vehicle audio system at high volume may offset the
Driver Attention Warning system
warning sounds.CAUTION
Driver Attention Warning (DAW)
system may not properly oper-ate with limited alerting in thefollowing situations:
The lane detection perform- ance is limited. (For moreinformation, refer to "LaneKeeping Assist (LKA) system"in this chapter.)
The vehicle is violently driven or is abruptly turned for obsta-cle avoidance (e.g. construc-tion area, other vehicles, fallenobjects, bumpy road).
Forward drivability of the vehi- cle is severely undermined(possibly due to wide varia-tion in tire pressures, uneventire wear-out, toe-in/toe-outalignment).
The vehicle drives on a curvy road.
The vehicle drives on a bumpy road.
(Continued)
(Continued) The vehicle drives through a windy area.
The vehicle is controlled by the following driving assistsystems:
- Lane Keeping Assist (LKA) system
- Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) system
- Blind-Spot Collision- Avoidance Assist (BCA) sys-tem
- Lane Following Assist (LFA) system
- Smart Cruise Control (SCC) system
- Highway Driving Assist (HDA) system
