bumper clean.
Use only a genuine Kia sensor cover for your vehicle.
Do not install accessories around the sensor and do not replace the
bumper by yourself. It may interfere
with the sensor performance.
Impact damage to the sensor or sensor area may cause the sensor
to move slightly off position and
result in the ASCC not operating
correctly. If this occurs, have your
vehicle checked by an authorized
Kia dealer as soon as possible.To adjust the sensitivity of

On curves
On curves, the ASCC may not
detect a moving vehicle in your
lane, and then your vehicle could
accelerate to the set speed. Also,
the vehicle speed will rapidly slow
down when the vehicle ahead is
recognized suddenly.
Select the appropriate set speed on curves and adjust your vehicle
speed by depressing the accelera-
tor or brake pedal according to the
road condition ahead and driving
condition. Your vehicle speed can be reduced
due to a vehicle in the adjacent
lane. Adjust your vehicle speed by
depressing the brake pedal
according to the road condition
ahead and driving condition. Apply
the accelerator pedal and select
the appropriate set speed. Check
to be sure that the road conditions
permit safe operation of the ASCC.
On inclines
During uphill or downhill driving,the ASCC may not detect a moving
vehicle in your lane, and cause
your vehicle to accelerate to the
set speed. Also, the vehicle speed
will rapidly slow down when the
vehicle ahead is recognized sud-
denly.
Select the appropriate set speed on inclines and adjust your vehicle
speed by depressing the accelera-
tor or brake pedal according to the
road condition ahead and driving
condition.

Driving your vehicle
Lane changing
A vehicle which moves into yourlane from an adjacent lane cannot
be recognized by the sensor until it
is in the sensor's detection range.
The sensor may not detect imme- diately when a vehicle cuts in sud-
denly. Always pay attention to the
traffic, road and driving conditions.
If a vehicle which moves into your lane is slower than your vehicle,
your speed may decrease to main-
tain the distance to the vehicle
ahead. If a vehicle which moves into your
lane is faster than your vehicle,
your vehicle will accelerate to the
selected speed.
Your vehicle may accelerate whena vehicle ahead of you disappears.
When you are warned that the vehicle ahead of you is not detect-
ed, drive with caution.
