2020 KIA SEDONA brake sensor

Safety features of your vehicle
In an angled collision, the force ofimpact may direct the occupants in
a direction where the air bags
would not be able to provide any
additional benefit, and thus the
sensors may not deploy any air
bags. Just before impact, drivers often
brake heavily. Such heavy braking
lowers the front portion of the vehi-
cle causing it to “ride” under a vehi-
cle with a higher ground clearance.
Air bags may not inflate in this
"under-ride" situation because
deceleration forces that are detect-
ed by sensors may be significantly
reduced by such “under-ride” colli-
sions. Front air bags may not inflate in all
rollover accidents where the SRS
indicates that the front air bag
deployment would not provide
additional occupant protection.

recognized by the sensor:
1. Sharp or slim objects such as ropes, chains or small poles.
2. Objects, which tend to absorb sen- sor frequency such as clothes,
spongy material or snow.
✽ ✽NOTICE
1. The warning may not sound
depending on the speed and
shapes of the objects detected.
2. The parking distance warning may malfunction if the vehicle
bumper height or sensor installa-
tion has been modified. Any non-
factory installed equipment or
accessories may also interfere
with the sensor performance.
3. Sensor may not recognize objects less than 30 cm (12 in.) from the
sensor, or it may sense an incor-
rect distance. Use with caution.
4. When the sensor is frozen or stained with snow or water, the
sensor may be inoperative until
the stains are removed using a
soft cloth.
5. Do not push, scratch or strike the sensor with any hard objects that
could damage the surface of the

In heavy traffic
Use switch or pedal to accelerate
In traffic, your vehicle will stop if the
vehicle ahead of you stops. Also, if
the vehicle ahead of you starts
moving, your vehicle will start as
well. However, if the vehicle stops
for more than 3 seconds, you must
depress the accelerator pedal or
push up the toggle switch (RES+)
to start driving. If you push the smart cruise control
toggle switch (RES+ or SET-) while
Auto Hold and smart cruise control
is operating, the Auto Hold will be
released regardless of accelerator
pedal operation and the vehicle will
start to move. The AUTO HOLD
indicator changes from green to
white. (if equipped with EPB
(Electronic Parking Brake))
Radar to detect distance to the
vehicle ahead
The sensor detects distance to the
vehicle ahead.
If the sensor is covered with dirt or
other foreign matter, the vehicle to
vehicle distance control may not
operate correctly.
Always keep the sensor clean.

Your vehicle speed can be reduced
due to a vehicle in the adjacent
lane. Adjust your speed by depress-
ing the brake pedal or applying the
accelerator pedal according to road
and driving conditions ahead.
Check to be sure that the road con-
ditions permit safe operation of the
smart cruise control.
On inclines
During uphill or downhill driving,the smart cruise control system
may not immediately detect a mov-
ing vehicle in your lane, and may
cause your vehicle to accelerate to
the set speed. Also, the vehicle
speed will rapidly down when the
vehicle ahead is recognized sud-
denly.
Select the appropriate set speed on inclines and adjust your vehicle
speed by depressing the accelera-
tor or brake pedal according to the
road and traffic conditions ahead.
Lane changing
A vehicle which moves into yourlane from an adjacent lane cannot
be recognized by the sensor until it
is in the sensor's detection range.
The sensor may not detect imme- diately when a vehicle cuts in sud-
denly. Always pay attention to the
traffic, road and driving conditions.
If a vehicle which moves into your lane is slower than your vehicle,
your speed may decrease to main-
tain the distance to the vehicle
ahead.

A vehicle ahead cannot be recog-
nized correctly by the sensor if any of
following occurs:
- When the vehicle is pointing
upwards due to overloading in the
liftgate
- While making turns by steering
- When driving to one side of the lane
- When driving on narrow lanes or on curves
Adjust your vehicle speed by
depressing the brake pedal accord-
ing to the road and driving conditions
ahead. When vehicles are at a standstill and
the vehicle in front of you changes to
the next lane, be careful when your
vehicle starts to move because it may
not recognize the stopped vehicle in
front of you.
In this case, you must maintain a
safe braking distance, and if neces-
sary, depress the brake pedal to
reduce your driving speed in order to
maintain a safe distance.Always look out for pedestrians when
your vehicle is maintaining a dis-
tance with the vehicle ahead.

Always be aware of the select-
ed speed and vehicle to vehi-
cle distance.
Always maintain sufficient braking distance and deceler-
ate your vehicle by applying
the brakes if necessary.(Continued)
If an emergency stop is nec-
essary, you must apply the
brakes.
Keep a safe distance accord- ing to road conditions and
vehicle speed. If the vehicle to
vehicle distance is too close
during a high-speed driving, a
serious collision may result.
The smart cruise control sys- tem cannot recognize a
stopped vehicle, pedestrians
or an oncoming vehicle.
Always look ahead cautiously
to prevent unexpected and
suddensituations from occur-
ring.
When other vehicles are changing lanes in front of you
frequently, the smart cruise
control system may not oper-
ate appropriately. Always look
ahead cautiously to prevent
unexpected and sudden situa-
tions from occurring.
(Continued)WARNING
After starting the engine,please stop for several sec-
onds. If system initialization is
not completed, the smart
cruise control system does
not normally operate.
After starting the engine, if any objects are not detected
or the sensor cover is
obscured with foreign sub-
stances, there is a possibility
that the smart cruise control
system may not work.
The following conditions may cause a malfunction: over-
loading the liftgate, suspen-
sion modification, tire
replacement with unautho-
rized tires or tires with differ-
ent tread wear and pressure
levels.
The Smart Cruise Control sys- tem may not be able to com-
pletely stop the vehicle or
avoid a collision in every situ-
ation.
