Detecting sensor
CAUTION
Take the following precautions to maintain optimal performance of the detecting sensor:
僅 Never disassemble the detecting sensor or sensor assembly, or cause any damage to it.
僅 If the detecting sensors have been replaced or repaired, have the vehicle inspected by a
professional workshop. Kia recommends that you visit an authorized Kia dealer/service
partner.
僅 Never install any accessories or stickers on the front windscreen, or tint the front wind-
screen.
僅 Pay extreme caution to keep the front view camera dry.
僅 Never place any reflective objects (for example, white paper, mirror) over the dash-
board.
僅 Do not place any objects near the front windscreen or install any accessories on the
front windscreen. It can affect the performance of the defogging and defrosting func-
tion of the climate control system, which may prevent the Driver Assistance systems
from operating.
僅 Do not apply license plate frame or objects, such as a bumper sticker, film or a bumper
guard, near the front radar cover.
僅 Always keep the front radar and cover clean and free of dirt and debris.
Use only a soft cloth to wash the vehicle. Do not spray pressurized water directly on the
sensor or sensor cover.
僅 If the radar or around the radar has been damaged or impacted in any way, Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist may not properly operate even though a warning message
does not appear on the cluster. Have the vehicle inspected by a professional workshop.
Kia recommends that you visit an authorized Kia dealer/service partner.
僅 The genuine Kia front radar sensor covers are parts with quality and performance
ensured. If arbitrarily applying paint on or changing the cover, Forward Collision-Avoid-
ance Assist may not function properly.
Use only Kia Genuine Parts or those of an equivalent standard with proven quality and
performance to repair or replace the radar sensor covers.
