When foreign material (such as snow or rain) covers the windshield where the front view camera is located, the front radar cover, the bumper, 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 (), the Emergency Steering 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 or obstructions (such as a trailer or carrier) from the rear bumper, have the vehicle inspected by an authorized Kia dealer.
