Kia Sorento: Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist operation

• If the operating conditions are satisfied, your Kia Sorento will issue a warning whenever a vehicle approaches from either side even if your current travel speed is 0 mph (0 km/h).

• The graphics, icons, or interface colors may display differently depending on the specific specifications and display theme of your instrument cluster.

Brake control ends under the following conditions:

• The approaching vehicle is out of the detecting range.

• The approaching vehicle passes behind your vehicle.

• The approaching vehicle does not drive toward your vehicle.

• The approaching vehicle slows down.

• You engage the brake pedal with sufficient power.

• For your safety, change the settings only after parking the vehicle at a safe location.

• Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist may not display a warning message or generate an audible warning if any other function's warning message is displayed or audible warning is generated at the same time.

• You may not hear the warning sound of Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist in noisy surroundings.

• Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist may not operate if you manually brake to avoid a collision.

• Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist may warn you late or may not warn you depending on the road and driving conditions.
