  1. Driver Assistance system limited. Radar blocked.

When foreign material (such as snow or rain) covers the windscreen where the front view camera is located, the front radar cover or the sensor, it can reduce the detecting performance and temporarily limit or disable Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist.

If this occurs, a warning message, the Forward Safety warning light () and the Master warning light () display on the instrument cluster.

Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist should operate properly when you remove foreign material (such as snow or rain) from the sensor.

If Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist still does not operate properly after you remove foreign material (such as snow or rain) from the sensor, have your vehicle inspected by a professional workshop. Kia recommends visiting an authorised Kia dealer or service partner.

WARNING
  • Even when the warning message or warning light does not appear on the instrument cluster temporarily, Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist may not operate properly.

  • Immediately after starting the vehicle, if the detection sensors are contaminated or there are no objects around the vehicle (e.g., in an open, unobstructed area), the Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) may not operate normally.

  • If the system is blocked or malfunctioning, turning the vehicle off and on again will retain the blocked or malfunctioning state, and Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) may not operate normally.

TIP

You can check the Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist status in the service message of the utility information view of the instrument cluster display window.
