The Blind-Spot Collision Warning
System and Rear Cross-Traffic

Operating conditions
Select RCCW (Rear Cross-TrafficCollision Warning) in “User
Settings” under “Driver Assistance”
on the instrument cluster. The sys-
tem will turn on and standby to
activate.
Select RCCW again, to turn the system off.
If the vehicle is turned off, the RCCW system will remember the
last settings upon restart. Always
turn the RCCW system off when
not in use.
The system operates when the vehicle speed is below 10km/h (6
mph) with the shift lever in R
(Reverse).
The RCCW (Rear Cross-Traffic Collision Warning) detecting range
is 0.5 m (1.6 feet) ~ 20 m (65 feet
)based on the side direction. If the
approaching vehicle speed is
4 km/h (2.5 mph) ~ 36 km/h (22
mph) within sensing range, it is
detected. However, the system
sensing range can vary based on
conditions. Always pay attention to
your surroundings.
Warning type If the vehicle detected by sensorsapproaches your vehicle, the warn-
ing chime will sound and the warn-
ing light will blink on the outside
rearview mirror.
If the detected vehicle is out of detection range, moving away in
the opposite direction or moving
slow, or if the vehicle is right
behind your vehicle, if the direction
of the other vehicle is not heading
towards your vehicle, the warning
is cancelled.
The system may not operate prop- erly due to other factors or circum-
stances. Always pay attention to
your surroundings.

\b If your vehicle's left or right side
bumper is blinded by a barrier or
vehicles, the system sensing abili-
ty may be deteriorated.
When the BCW system is being acti-
vated, the warning light on the out-
side rearview mirror will illuminate
whenever a vehicle is detected at the
rear side by the system. To avoid
accidents, do not focus only on the
warning light and neglect to see the
surrounding of the vehicle.✽ ✽
NOTICE
• The system may not work proper-
ly if the bumper has been replaced
or if repair work has been done
near the sensor.
• The detection area differs accord- ing to the road's width. If the road
is narrow the system may detect
other vehicles in the next lane.
• If the road is very wide the system may not detect other vehicles.
• The system may turn off due to strong electromagnetic interfer-
ence.

the driver if there are foreign sub-
stances on the surface or inside the
rear bumper or it is hot near the rear
bumper. The light on the switch and
the system will be turned off auto-
matically.
Remove the foreign substance on

is removed, take your vehicle to a
professional workshop and have the
system checked. We recommend
that the system be checked by an
authorized Kia dealer.
It is possible to get the message with
no foreign substance on the rear
bumper, for example, when driving in
sparse rural or open area, such as
desert, where there is insufficient
data for operation.
This message may also activate dur-
ing heavy rain or due to road spray.
In this case, the vehicle does not
need service.
When the cargo area or other equip-
ment is being used, turn all functions
of the system [OFF].
