Electronically Controlled Suspension with Road Preview (For GT)

Electronically Controlled Suspension with Road Preview controls the vehicle suspension automatically using the front view camera and vehicle sensors to maximize driving comfort by taking into account the driving conditions such as speed, surface of the road, cornering, stopping requirements and acceleration.

Front view camera

OMV034074

The front view camera is a sensor that detects the front road. If the windshield or the front view camera is covered with snow, rain or foreign matters, the data collected by the camera is limited due to the degradation of the camera’s performance. Always keep the front view camera clean.

NOTE

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

  • Never place any reflective objects (for example, white paper, mirror) over the dashboard. Any light reflection may prevent the system from functioning properly.

  • Pay extreme caution to keep the camera dry.

  • Never disassemble the camera assembly, or apply any impact on the camera assembly.

TIP

We recommend that the system be inspected by an authorized Kia dealer/service partner when:

  • The windshield glass is replaced.

  • The front view camera or cover gets damaged or replaced.

System malfunction

When Electronically Controlled Suspension with Road Preview is not working properly, this warning message will appear on the cluster LCD display. If this occurs, we recommend that the system be inspected by an authorized Kia dealer/service partner.

NOTE

If the battery level is high or low, Electronically Controlled Suspension with Road Preview may not work temporarily to protect the system. If this occurs, the warning message will appear.

Limitations of the system

Electronically Controlled Suspension with Road Preview always operates while driving according to the vehicle’s movement, and the preview function starts to work when the front view camera detects road conditions such as speed bumps. Therefore, the preview function is limited when there is an extreme condition that the front view camera may not work normally. In this case, the electronic control suspension function operates without the preview function in accordance with vehicle movement.
