The Surround View Monitor System
(SVM) is not a substitute for proper
and safe parking procedures. The
Surround View Monitor System
(SVM) may not detect every object
surrounding the vehicle. Always drive
safely and use caution when parking.
The Surround View Monitor System
(SVM) can assist in parking by allow-
ing the driver to see around the vehi-
cle. Push the button into the [ON]
position to operate the system.
To cancel the system, push the but-
ton again. Operating conditions
- When the Engine Start/Stop
Button is ON position
- When the transmission is on D, N or R
- When the vehicle speed is not over 9 mph (15 km/h)
When the vehicle speed is over 9 mph (15 km/h), the SVM system is
turned off. If the vehicle speed then
decreases below 9 mph (15 km/h),
the SVM will not automatically turn
on again. To operate again, push
the SVM button.
When the vehicle moves back- wards, regardless of On/Off of but-
ton and vehicle speed, the SVM
operates automatically.
When the trunk and driver/passen- ger door are opened and the out-
side mirror is folded, a warning is
illuminated in the SVM system.
If the SVM system is not operating normally, the system should be
checked by an authorized Kia dealer.
