Safe Exit Assist disabled

OMQ4050292L

When the rear bumper around the rear corner radar or sensor is covered with foreign matters, such as snow or rain, or installing a trailer or carrier, it can reduce the detecting performance and temporarily limit or disable Safe Exit Assist.

If this occurs, the 'Blind-Spot Safety system disabled. Radar blocked' warning message will appear on the cluster.

The function will operate normally when such foreign matters or trailer, etc. is removed. Always keep it clean.

If the function does not operate normally after it is removed, have your vehicle inspected by an authorized Kia dealer.

NOTE
  • Even though the warning message does not appear on the cluster, Safe Exit Assist may not properly operate.

  • Safe Exit Assist may not properly operate in an area (e.g., open terrain), where any substance are not detected after turning ON the engine.

CAUTION

Turn off Safe Exit Assist to install a trailer, carrier, etc., or remove the trailer, carrier, etc. to use Safe Exit Assist.
