• With the engine running, when the gear is shifted to R (Reverse), Reverse Parking Distance Warning will automatically turn on (button indicator off).

• Reverse Parking Distance Warning will operate when vehicle speed is below 5 km/h (3 mph). If vehicle speed is above 10 km/h (6 mph), Reverse Parking Distance Warning will not warn the driver, and if vehicle speed is above 20 km/h (12 mph), Reverse Parking Distance Warning will turn off (button indicator light on).

• When an obstacle is detected, it is displayed on the cluster and infotainment function screen.

• When more than two objects are detected at the same time, the closest one will be alerted with an audible warning.

Types of warning sound and indicator

• The corresponding indicator will illuminate whenever each ultrasonic senor detects a object in its sensing range.

• If an object is within 30 cm (12 in.) from the ultrasonic sensors, the sensors may not detect the object, or a sensor out of the detecting range may warn the driver.

• Distance warning may not occur sequentially depending on vehicle speed or obstacle shape.

• Indicators and warning sounds may differ from the illustration when obstacles are located in the centre of the sensor, obstacles are located in close proximity to the vehicle, or in various circumstances.

• The shape of the indicator in the illustration may differ from the actual vehicle.

Reverse Parking Distance Warning has a self-diagnosis function that can determine whether the ultrasonic sensor is working properly. After starting the engine, a beep will sound when the gear is shifted to P (Park) to indicate Reverse Parking Distance Warning is operating normally.

However, if one or more of the following occurs, first check whether the ultrasonic senior is damaged or whether the function is in a non-operating condition. If it still does not work properly, We recommend that you have your vehicle inspected by an authorised Kia dealer/service partner.

• The audible warning does not sound.

• The buzzer sounds intermittently.

• The 'Parking sensor error or blockage' warning message appears on the cluster.

Reverse Parking Distance Warning may malfunction if the vehicle bumper height or ultrasonic sensor installation has been modified or damaged. Any non-factory installed equipment or accessories may also interfere with the sensor performance.

When the ultrasonic sensor is frozen or stained with snow, dirt, or water, the sensor may be not operate until the stains are removed using a soft cloth.

Do not push, scratch or strike the ultrasonic sensor. Sensor damage could occur.

Do not spray the ultrasonic sensors or its surrounding area directly with a high pressure washer.
