Driver assistance guide
Lane Keeping Assist disabled
If foreign materials such as snow or rain block the sensors or the windscreen where
the front view camera is located, the detecting performance may be reduced, result
ing in Lane Keeping Assist temporarily limited or disabled.
In this case, a warning message is displayed with the master warning light ( ) and
the yellow Lane safety warning lights ( ) on the cluster. This is normal operation.
Warning message: Driver assistance system limited. Camera obscured.
Lane Keeping Assist will operate properly after cleaning snow, rain or foreign materi
als. Always keep it clean.
If Lane Keeping Assist still does not operate properly after cleaning foreign materials
(snow, rain, etc.) or removing obstructions (including trailer, carrier, etc. from the rear
bumper), have the vehicle inspected by an authorised Kia dealer/service partner.
WARNING
• Even though the warning message or warning light does not appear on the cluster,
Lane Keeping Assist may not properly operate.
• Even after starting the vehicle again, Lane Keeping Assist may not function properly
when the obstruction or malfunction condition persists.
NOTE
You can check it in the service message of the utility information view of the cluster
display window.

road
◦ There are markings (or road edges) on the road near the lane or the markings (or
road edges) on the road look similar to the lane markings (or road edges)

◦ When the shadow of objects around the road (central reservation, crash barrier,
noise barrier, surrounding bushes, etc.) or the shadow of a vehicle covers the lane.
• The lane number increases or decreases, or the lane markings (or road edges) are
crossing
• There are more than two lane markings (or road edges) on the road
