Safe Exit Warning disabled
When the rear bumper around the rear corner radar or sensor is covered with foreign material, such as snow or rain, or installing a trailer or carrier, it can reduce the detecting performance and temporarily limit or disable Safe Exit Warning.
At this time, warning messages and master warning lights (
) are displayed on the cluster display, but it does not indicate a malfunction of the safe exit assist.
Warning message: Driver assistance system limited. Radar blocked.
Safe Exit Warning will operate normally when such foreign material or trailer, etc. is removed, and then the vehicle is restarted.
If Safe Exit Warning does not operate normally after it is removed, Kia recommends that you visit an authorized Kia dealer/service partner.

Safe Exit Warning may not properly operate in an area (e.g., open terrain), where any substance are not detected right after the vehicle is turned on, or when the detecting sensor is blocked with foreign material right after the vehicle is turned on.
Turn off Safe Exit Warning to install a trailer, carrier, etc., or remove the trailer, carrier, etc. to use Safe Exit Warning.
