Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist disabled
 OSW055019L |
(A): Driver Assistance system limited. Radar blocked. |
Covering the rear bumper around the rear corner radar or sensor with foreign materials (such as snow or rain), having the twin swing tailgate open, or installing a trailer or carrier can reduce the detecting performance. This may result in Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist being temporarily limited or disabled.
At this time, the warning message and master warning light (
) are displayed on the cluster display, but it does not indicate a malfunction of Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist.
Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist will operate properly when such foreign material or a trailer, etc., is removed, or when the twin swing tailgate is closed and the vehicle is then restarted.
If Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist does not operate properly after it is removed, have Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist be inspected by a professional workshop. Kia recommends that you visit an authorised Kia dealer/service partner.
-
Even though the warning message does not appear on the cluster, Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist may not properly operate.
-
Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance 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.
Turn off Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist to install or remove a trailer, carrier, or another attachment. Turn on Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist when finished.
You can check it in the service message of the utility information view of the cluster display window.
