This warning message will appear to

OYD056065L
After the foreign substance is
removed, if you drive for approxi-
mately 10 minutes, the system will
work normally.
OYD056059L
If the system does not work normally
even though the foreign substance is
removed, take your vehicle to an
authorised Kia dealer and have the
system checked.
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.
This message may also display
when large object such as bicycle
carrier or trailer is attached to the
rear part of the vehicle.
When such large objects
attached, turn off the BSD function.
If the system does not operate nor-
mally after removing the substance or
is not in a situation mentioned above,
we recommend that you take your
vehicle to an authorised Kia dealer
and have the system checked.
