At this time, the warning message and the Master warning light (
) are displayed on the cluster display, but it does not indicate a malfunction of Safe Exit Assist.
Safe Exit Assist operates properly when you remove foreign material (such as snow or rain) from the sensor or obstructions (such as a trailer or carrier) from the rear bumper, then restart the vehicle.
If Safe Exit Assist still does not operate properly after you remove foreign material (such as snow or rain) from the sensor, have the vehicle inspected by an authorized Kia dealer.

Even though the warning message does not appear on the cluster, Safe Exit Assist may not properly operate.
-
Safe Exit Assist may not properly operate in an area (for example, open terrain) where any objects 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.
You can check the Safe Exit Assist status in the service message of the utility information view of the instrument cluster display window.
Turn OFF Safe Exit Assist to install or remove a trailer, carrier, or other attachment. Turn ON Safe Exit Assist when you are finished.
