Driver Attention Warning malfunction and limitations

Driver Attention Warning malfunction

When Driver Attention Warning is not working properly, the 'Check Driver Attention Warning (DAW) system' warning message will appear on the cluster (turns off after a certain time) and warning light will illuminate. If this occurs, we recommend that the function be inspected by an authorised Kia dealer/service partner.
