The BCW (Blind-Spot Collision
Warning) system uses radar sensors
in the rear bumper. The sensors
monitor a closing any approaching
vehicles from behind or a vehicles in
driver’s blind spot area and alert the
driver of while driving.
- Blind-Spot Area
The warning range is dependent on
your vehicle speed.
Note that if your vehicle is traveling
much faster than other nearby vehi-
cles, the warning will not occur.
- Lane Change Assist
When vehicles are approaching to
your vehicle at high speed, the warn-
ing message will occur.

If the vehicle detected by the sensors
approaches from the rear left/right
side of your vehicle, the warning
chime will sound, the warning light
on the outside rearview mirror will
blink and a message will appear on
the LCD display.
The warning will stop when:
- The vehicle moving at the rear
left/right side of your vehicle is not
in the detection range.
- The vehicle is right behind your vehicle.
- The vehicle is not driving towards your vehicle.
- The vehicle’s approaching speed is decreased.
WARNING
Drive safely even though thevehicle is equipped with a
Rear Cross-Traffic Collision
Warning (RCCW) System. Do
not solely rely on the system
but check your surrounding
when backing the vehicle up.
The RCCW system may not
detect every object alongside
the vehicle.
The driver is responsible for accurate brake control.
Always pay extreme caution while driving. The Rear Cross-
Traffic Collision Warning
System may not operate prop-
erly or unnecessarily operate
in accordance with your driv-
ing situations.
CAUTION
If the operating conditions of RCCW are satisfied, a warningis issued every time a vehiclecomes to the rear side, even ifyour vehicle is stopped (vehi-cle speed 0 km/h (0 mph)).
The system's warning may not operate properly if theleft/right of your vehicle's rearbumper is blocked by a vehi-cle or obstacle.
The driver should always use extreme caution while operat-ing the vehicle, whether or notthe warning light on the out-side rearview mirror illumi-nates or there is a warningalarm.
Playing the vehicle audio sys- tem at high volume may pre-vent occupants from hearingthe system's warning sounds.
The warning of the Rear Cross- Traffic Collision WarningSystem may not sound if warn-ing sounds from other systemsare activated.

Rear/side detecting sensors
The sensors are located inside the
rear bumper for detecting rear/side
areas.
Always keep the rear bumper clean
for proper operation of the system.
OQL058209L
CAUTION
The system may not workproperly when the bumper hasbeen damaged, or if the rearbumper has been replaced orrepaired.
The sensing range differs somewhat according to thewidth of the road. When theroad is narrow, the systemmay detect and alert to othervehicles in the next lane.
On the contrary, on wide roads, the system may not beable to detect an automobilethat is driving on surroundinglanes and may not be able toalert.
The system may turn off due if interfered by electromagneticinterference.
Always keep the sensors and bumpers near the sensorclean.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Never disassemble the sensor component nor apply anyimpact on the sensor compo-nent.
Be careful not to apply unnec- essary force on the radar sen-sors or bumpers near the sen-sor. If the sensor is forciblymoved out of proper align-ment, the system may notoperate correctly. In this case,have the system checked byan authorized Kia dealer.
Do not apply foreign objects such as a bumper sticker or abumper guard near the radarsensor or apply paint to thesensor area. Doing so mayadversely affect the perform-ance of the sensor.

tem will turn off automatically. When
the BCW canceled warning mes-
sage is displayed in the cluster,
check to make sure that the rear
bumper is free from any dirt or snow
in the areas where the sensor is
located. Remove any dirt, snow, or
foreign material that could interfere
with the radar sensors. After any dirt
or debris is removed, the BCW &
RCCW system should operate nor-
mally after about 10 minutes of driv-
ing the vehicle. If the system still does not operate
normally, have the system checked
by an authorized Kia dealer.

Driving your vehicle
✽ ✽NOTICE
It may suggest a break according to
the driver’s driving pattern or
habits even if the driver doesn’t feel
fatigued.
✽ ✽NOTICE
The Driver Attention Warning sys-
tem utilizes the camera sensor on the
front windshield for its operation.
To keep the camera sensor in the
best condition, you should observe
the followings:
• Do not place any reflective objects
(i.e. white paper, mirror) over the
dashboard. Any light reflection
may prevent the Driver Attention
Warning (DAW) system from
functioning properly.
• Pay extreme caution to keep the camera sensor dry.
• Do not disassemble the camera assembly, or apply any impact on
the camera assembly.
• Playing the vehicle audio system at high volume may prevent the
occupants from hearing the Driver
Attention Warning system warn-
ing sounds.WARNING
The Driver Attention Warning
system is not a substitute for
safe driving practices. It is the
responsibility of the driver to
always drive cautiously to
prevent unexpected and sud-
den situations from occur-
ring. Pay attention to the road
conditions at all times.
The driver, who feels fatigued, should take a break, even
though there is no break sug-
gestion by the Driver
Attention Warning system.
CAUTION
The Driver Attention Warningsystem may not provide alertsin the following situations:
The lane detection perform- ance is limited. (For moreinformation, refer to “LaneKeeping Assist (LKA) system”in this chapter.)
The vehicle is erratically driv- en or is abruptly turned forobstacle avoidance (e.g. con-struction area, other vehicles,fallen objects, bumpy road).
Forward drivability of the vehi- cle is severely undermined(possibly due to wide varia-tion in tire pressures, uneventire wear-out, toe-in/toe-outalignment).
