Detection sensor

Please refer to Detecting sensor(s) for the applicable sensors and their locations.

CAUTION

  • Never damage or disassemble the detection sensor or sensor assembly.

  • If the detection sensors have been replaced or repaired, have the vehicle inspected by an authorized Kia dealer.

  • If the radar or around the radar experiences an impact, Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist may not operate properly even if a warning message is not displayed on the cluster. Have the vehicle inspected by an authorized Kia dealer.

  • Never install any accessories or stickers on the front windshield, or tint the front windshield.

  • Be extremely careful to keep the front view camera dry.

  • Never place any reflective objects (for example, white paper or a mirror) over the instrument cluster.

  • Do not place any objects near the front windshield or install any accessories on the front windshield. It can affect the performance of the defogging and defrosting function of the climate control system, which may prevent the Driver Assistance systems from operating.

  • Do not apply a license plate frame or objects (such as a bumper sticker, film, or a bumper guard), near the front radar cover.

  • Always keep the front radar cover clean and free of dirt and debris.

    Use only a soft cloth to wash the vehicle. Do not spray pressurized water directly on the sensor or sensor cover.

  • If you apply paint on or change the front, front corner and/or rear corner radar sensor cover, Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist may not function properly.

    Use only Kia genuine parts or those of an equivalent standard with proven quality and performance to repair or replace the radar sensor covers.

  • The function may not work properly if the bumper was replaced, or the surroundings of the front corner radar or rear corner radar were damaged or paint was applied.

  • If you install a trailer or carrier, this may adversely affect the performance of Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist and prevent it from operating properly.

  • Do not arbitrarily attach objects (accessories, moldings, stickers, films, packaging materials, etc.) to the detection sensor or its surroundings, or paint the bumper.
