Features of your vehicle
Rear View Monitor will activate with
the ignition switch ON and the shift
lever in the R (Reverse) position.• This function is a supplemental
function only. It is the responsibility
of the driver to always check the
inside/outside rearview mirrors and
the area behind the vehicle before
and while backing up because
there is a dead zone that can't be
seen by the camera.
If the camera lens is covered with foreign material, the Rear View
Monitor may not operate normally.
Always keep the camera lens
clean.
However, do not use chemical sol-
vents such as strong detergents
containing high alkaline or volatile
organic solvents (gasoline, ace-
tone etc.). This may damage the
camera lens.
REAR VIEW MONITOR (RVM)
WARNING - Backing &
using camera
Never rely solely on the rear view
camera when backing up. You
must always look over both
shoulders and continuously
check all three rear view mirrors.
Due to the difficulty of ensuring
that the area behind you remains
clear, always back up slowly and
stop immediately if you even
suspect that a person, and espe-
cially a child, might be behind
you.

Warning precautions
Reverse Parking Distance Warning
may not sound consistently
depending on the speed and
shapes of the objects detected.
Reverse Parking Distance Warning
may malfunction if the vehicle
bumper height or sensor installa-
tion has been modified or dam-
aged. Any non-factory installed
equipment or accessories may also
interfere with the sensor perform-
ance.
The sensor may not recognize
objects less than 12 in (30 cm)
from the sensor, or it may sense an
incorrect distance. Use caution.
When the sensor is frozen or cov-
ered with snow, dirt, or water, the
sensor may be inoperative until the
material is removed using a soft
cloth.
To prevent damage, do not push,
scratch or strike the sensor.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
This function can only sense objects
within the range and location of the
sensors. It cannot detect objects in
other areas where sensors are not
installed. Also, small or slim objects,
such as poles or objects located
between sensors may not be detected
by the sensors.
Always visually check behind the
vehicle when backing up.
Be sure to inform any drivers of the
vehicle that may be unfamiliar with
the function regarding the func-
tion’s capabilities and limitations.
Self-diagnosis

sound or if the buzzer sounds inter-
mittently when shifting the gear to
the R (Reverse) position, this may
indicate a malfunction in Reverse
Parking Distance Warning. If this
occurs, have your vehicle checked by
an authorized Kia dealer as soon as
possible.

NOTICE
Your new vehicle warranty does not
cover any accidents or damage to
the vehicle or injuries to its occu-
pants due to a Reverse Parking
