✽ ✽NOTICE
• Do not disassemble a front view
camera temporarily for tinted
window or attaching any types of
coatings and accessories. If you
disassemble the camera and
assemble it again, take your vehi-
cle to an authorized Kia dealer
and have the system checked to
need a calibration.
• When you replace or reinstall the windshield glass, take your vehicle
to an authorized Kia dealer and
have the system checked.
• Be careful that water does not get into the High Beam Assist unit and
do not remove or damage related
parts of the High Beam Assist sys-
tem.
• Do not place objects on the dash- board that reflect light such as
mirrors, white paper, etc. The sys-
tem may not be able to function if
sunlight is reflected. (Continued)(Continued)
• At times, the High Beam Assist
may not operate due to system
limitations. The system is for your
convenience only. It is the respon-
sibility of the driver to use safe
driving practices and always
check the road conditions for your
safety.
• When the system does not operate normally, change the lamp posi-
tion manually between the high
beam and low beam.
Turn signals and lane change
signals
The ignition switch must be on for the
turn signals to function. To turn on
the turn signals, move the lever up or
down (A). The green arrow indicators
on the instrument panel indicate
which turn signal is operating.
They will self-cancel after a turn is
completed. If the indicator continues
to flash after a turn, manually return
the lever to the OFF position.
To signal a lane change, move the
turn signal lever slightly and hold it in
position (B). The lever will return to
the OFF position when released.

Features of your vehicle
Headlight leveling device
(if equipped)
Automatic type
To ensure the proper headlight beam
is used under various conditions, the
headlight beam levels are automati-
cally adjusted depending on the
number of passengers, the weight in
the trunk, and other driving condi-
tions.
✽ ✽NOTICE
If the headlight beam is irradiated
to the high or low position, have the
system be inspected by an author-
ized Kia dealer.
Do not attempt to inspect or replace
the wiring yourself.
Dynamic Bending Light (DBL)
(if equipped)
Dynamic Bending Light (DBL) uses
the steering angle and vehicle speed,
to keep your field of vision wide by
swiveling and leveling the headlamp.
Change the switch to the AUTO posi-
tion when the engine is running. The
dynamic Bending Light (DBL) will
operate when the headlamp is ON.
To turn off the DBL, change the
switch to other positions. After turn-
ing the DBL off, headlamp swiveling
no longer occurs, but leveling oper-
ates continuously. If the DBL malfunction indicator
comes on, the DBL is not working
properly. Drive to the nearest safe
location and restart the engine. If the
indicator continuously remains on,
have system be checked by an
authorized Kia dealer.
