System description
Rear Cross-Traffic CollisionWarning (RCCW) system
Rear Cross-Traffic Collision Warning
(RCCW) system uses radar sensors
to monitor the approaching cross
traffic from the left and right side of
the vehicle when your vehicle is in
reverse.
The blind spot detection range varies
relative to the approaching vehicle
speed.
Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist (RCCA) system
Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-
Avoidance Assist (RCCA) system
monitors approaching cross traffic
from the left and right side of the
vehicle when your vehicle is
approaching.
Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-
Avoidance Assist (RCCA) system
may activate the Electronic Stability
Control (ESC) in accordance with a
colliding possibility with an
approaching vehicle. It is to lower the
colliding risk or mitigate the colliding
damage.

Blind-Spot Collision Warning (BCW)
system disabled. Radar blocked
This warning message may appearwhen:
- One or both of the sensors on therear bumper is blocked by dirt or
snow or a foreign object.
- When a trailer or carrier is installed.
- Driving in rural areas where the sensor does not detect another
vehicle for an extended period of
time.
- When there is inclement weather such as heavy snow or rain.
CAUTION
The system may not work properly when the bumper hasbeen damaged, or if the rearbumper has been replaced orrepaired.
The system may turn off due to strong electromagnetic waves.
Always keep the sensors clean. NEVER arbitrarily disassem- ble the sensor component norapply any impact on the sen-sor component.
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.
(Continued)
(Continued) 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.

If any of these conditions occur, the
light on the BCW switch and the sys-
tem will turn off automatically.
When the BCW canceled warning
message is displayed in the cluster,
check to make sure that the rear
bumper is free from any dirt or snow
in the areas where the sensor is
located. Remove any dirt, snow, or
foreign material that could interfere
with the radar sensors.
After any dirt or debris is removed,
RCCA system should operate nor-
mally after about 10 minutes of driv-
ing the vehicle.
If the system still does not operate
normally, have your vehicle inspect-
ed by an authorized K900 Kia dealer. Turn off the BCW, BCA and RCCW
system (if equipped) when a trailer or
carrier is installed.
- Press the BCW/BCA button (the
indicator on the button extinguish)
- Deactivate the RCCW system by deselecting
“AVN →Setup →Vehicle →Driver
Assistance →Blind-Spot Safety →

Limitations of the system
The driver must be cautious in the
below situations, because the sys-
tem may not detect other vehicles or
objects in certain circumstances.
When a trailer or carrier isinstalled.
The vehicle drives in inclement weather such as heavy rain or
snow.
The sensor is polluted with rain, snow, mud, etc.
The rear bumper where the sensor is located is covered with a foreign
object such as a bumper sticker, a
bumper guard, a bike rack, etc.
The rear bumper is damaged, or the sensor is out of the original
default position.
The vehicle height gets lower or higher due to heavy loading in a
trunk, abnormal tire pressure, etc.
When the temperature of the rear bumper is high.
When the sensors are blocked by other vehicles, walls or parking-lot
pillars. The vehicle drives on a curved road.
The road pavement (or the periph-
eral ground) abnormally contains
metallic components (i.e. possibly
due to subway construction).
There is a fixed object near the vehicle, such as a guardrail.
While going down or up a steep road where the height of the lane is
different.
Driving on a narrow road where trees or grass or overgrown.
Driving in rural areas where the sensor does not detect another
vehicle for an extended period of
time.
Driving on a wet road.
Driving on a road where the guardrail or wall is in double structure.
A big vehicle is near such as a bus or truck.

What to do in an emergency
When you drive your vehicle from a
warm area to a cold area or from a
cold area to a warm area, or the out-
side temperature is significantly
higher or lower, you should check the
tire inflation pressure and adjust the
tires to the recommended tire infla-
tion pressure.
When filling tires with more air, con-
ditions to turn off the low tire pres-
sure telltale may not be met. This is
because a tire inflator has a margin
of error in performance. The low tire
pressure telltale will be turned off if
the tire pressure is above the recom-
mended tire inflation pressure.TPMS (Tire PressureMonitoring System)malfunction indicator
The low tire pressure telltale will illu-
minate after it blinks for approximate-
ly one minute when there is a prob-
lem with the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System. If the system is
able to correctly detect an underinfla-
tion warning at the same time as sys-
tem failure then it will illuminate both
the TPMS malfunction and low tire
pressure position telltales e.g. if
Front Left sensor fails, the TPMS
malfunction indicator illuminates, but
if the Front Right, Rear Left, or Rear
Right tire is under-inflated, the low
tire pressure position telltales may
illuminate together with the TPMS
malfunction indicator.
Have the system checked by an
authorized K900 Kia dealer as soon
as possible to determine the cause
of the problem. The TPMS malfunction indicator
may be illuminated if the vehicle is
moving around electric power sup-
ply cables or radios transmitters
such as at police stations, govern-
ment and public offices, broadcast-
ing stations, military installations,
airports, or transmitting towers,
etc. This can interfere with normal
operation of the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS).
The TPMS malfunction indicator may be illuminated if snow chains
are used or some separate elec-
tronic devices such as notebook
computer, mobile charger, remote
starter or navigation etc., are used
in the vehicle. This can interfere
with normal operation of the Tire
Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS).
WARNING- Low pressure
damage
Do not drive on low pressure
tires. Significantly low tire pres-
sure can cause the tires to over-
heat and fail making the vehicle
unstable resulting in increased
braking distances and a loss of
vehicle control.
