The parking assist system assists
the driver during movement of the
vehicle by chiming if any object is
sensed within the distance of 100 cm
(39.3 in ) in front or 120 cm (47 in)
behind the vehicle.This system is a supplemental sys-
tem and it is not intended to nor does
it replace the need for extreme care
and attention of the driver.
The sensing range and objects
detectable by the sensors are limit-
ed. Whenever moving pay as much
attention to what is in front of and
behind you as you would in a vehicle
without a parking assist system.
The parking assist system should
only be considered as a supplemen-
tary function. The driver must check
the front and rear view. The opera-
tional function of the parking assist
system can be affected by many fac-
tors and conditions of the surround-
ings, so the responsibility rests
always with the driver.
Operation of the parking assist
system
Operating condition
• This system will activate when the
parking assist button is pressed
with the engine running.

Non-operational conditions of
parking assist system
Parking assist system may not
operate when:
1. Moisture is frozen to the sensor. (It
will operate normally when mois-
ture melts.)
2. Sensor is covered with foreign
matter, such as snow or water, or
the sensor cover is blocked. (It will
operate normally when the materi-
al is removed or the sensor is no
longer blocked.)
3. Sensor is stained with foreign mat-
ter such as snow or water.
(Sensing range will return to nor-
mal when removed.)
There is a possibility that the park-
ing assist system may not operate
when:
1. Driving on uneven road surfaces
such as unpaved roads, gravel,
bumps, or gradient.
2. Objects generating excessive noise
such as vehicle horns, loud motor-
cycle engines, or truck air brakes
interfere with the sensor.
3. Heavy rain or water spray.
4. Wireless transmitters or mobile
phones are present near the sen-
sor.
5. Sensor is covered with snow.
Detection range may decrease
when:
1. Outside air temperature is
extremely hot or cold.
2. There are undetectable objects
smaller than 1 m (39.37 in) and
narrower than 14 cm (5.51 in) in
diameter.

switch to other positions. After turn-
ing the AFLS off, headlamp swiveling
no longer occurs, but leveling oper-
ates continuously.Never place anything over the sen-
sor(1) located on the instrument
panel. This will ensure better auto-
light system to turn on and off auto-
matically.
If the AFLS malfunction indicator
comes on, the AFLS is not working
properly. Drive to the nearest safe
location and restart the engine. If the
indicator continuously remains on,
have system be checked by an
authorized Kia dealer.
