Driving on the lane marker.
✽ ✽ NOTICE

before changing lanes.
Limitations of the system
The LDW may not warn you even if
the vehicle leaves the lane, or may
warn you even if the vehicle does not
leave the lane when recognition of
the lane marker is poor or limited:
When lane and road condition is
poor
It is difficult to distinguish the lane marker when the lane marker is
covered with dust, sand or other
factors.
It is difficult to distinguish the color of the lane marker from road.
There is something looks like a lane marker.
The lane marker is indistinct or damaged.
The number of lanes increases/decreases or the lanes
are intersecting (Driving through a
toll plaza/toll gate, merged/divided
lane).
There are more than two lane markers. The lane marker is very thick or
thin.
The lane marker is not visible due to snow, rain, stain, a puddle or
other factors.
A shadow is on the lane marker because of a median strip,
guardrail, noise barriers and oth-
ers.
When the lane markers are compli- cated or a structure substitutes for
the lines such as a construction
area.
There are crosswalk signs or other symbols on the road.
The lane suddenly disappears such as at the intersection.

Driving your vehicle
Following distance
Stay at least twice as far behind the
vehicle ahead as you would when
driving your vehicle without a trailer.
This can help you avoid situations
that require heavy braking and sud-
den turns.
Passing
You’ll need more passing distance
up ahead when you’re towing a trail-
er. And, because of the increased
vehicle length, you’ll need to go
much farther beyond the passed
vehicle before you can return to your
lane. Due to the added load to the
engine when going uphill the vehicle
may also take longer to pass than it
would on flat ground.
Backing up
Hold the bottom of the steering
wheel with one hand. Then, to move
the trailer to the left, just move your
hand to the left. To move the trailer to
the right, move your hand to the
right. Always back up slowly and, if
possible, have someone guide you.
Making turns
When you’re turning with a trailer,
make wider turns than normal. Do
this so your trailer won’t strike soft
shoulders, curbs, road signs, trees,
or other objects near the edge of the
road. Avoid jerky or sudden maneu-
vers. Signal well in advance before
turning or lane changes.
Turn signals when towing a trailer
When you tow a trailer, your vehicle
has to have a different turn signal
flasher and extra wiring. The green
arrows on your instrument panel will
flash whenever you signal a turn or
lane change. Properly connected,
the trailer lights will also flash to alert
other drivers you’re about to turn,
change lanes, or stop.
When towing a trailer, the green
arrows on your instrument panel will
flash for turns even if the bulbs on the
trailer are burned out. Thus, you may
think drivers behind you are seeing
your signals when, in fact, they are
not. It’s important to check occasion-
ally to be sure the trailer bulbs are still
working. You must also check the
lights every time you disconnect and
then reconnect the wires.
Do not connect a trailer lighting sys-
tem directly to your vehicle’s lighting
system. Use only an approved trailer
wiring harness.
An authorized Kia dealer can assist
you in installing the wiring harness.

edge of a roadway.

flasher switch is located in the center
facia panel. All turn signal lights will
flash simultaneously.
