Forward/Side/Reverse Parking Distance Warning (PDW) (if equipped)
• Sharp or slim objects, such as ropes, chains or small poles.
• Narrow objects, such as corners of a square column
• Objects, which tend to absorb sensor frequency, such as clothes, spongy material or
snow.
• Objects smaller than 100 cm (40 inches) in length and narrower than 14 cm (6 inch
es) in diameter.
• Pedestrians, animals, or objects that are very close to the ultrasonic sensors
• Objects in the side space between the front ultrasonic sensor and the rear ultrasonic

WARNING
• Parking Distance Warning is a supplemental function. The operation of Parking Dis
tance Warning can be affected by several factors (including environmental condi
tions). It is the responsibility of the driver to always check the front and rear views
before and whilst parking.
• Your new vehicle warranty does not cover any accidents or damage to the vehicle
due to the malfunction of Parking Distance Warning.
• Pay close attention when driving near objects, pedestrians, and especially children.
Some objects may not be detected by the ultrasonic sensors, due to the objects dis
tance, size, or material, all of which can limit the effectiveness of the sensor.
• Parking Distance Warning does not warn you in the order of detection. It varies de
pending on the speed of the vehicle or the shape of a person, animal, or object.
• If the Parking Distance Warning does not operate properly, Kia recommends that
you visit an authorised Kia dealer/service partner.
