Kia Sorento: Safe Exit Warning settings
Safe Exit
|
|
While the vehicle is ON, tap Setup > Vehicle > Driver Assistance > Driving Safety > Safe Exit on the infotainment system screen of your Kia Sorento to configure this advanced protective feature according to your personal driving preferences.
WARNING
If you deselect Safe Exit, Safe Exit Warning cannot warn you about approaching traffic hazards. You should always be aware of your immediate surroundings and exercise extreme caution when exiting the vehicle in busy traffic environments.
CAUTION
When using a Kia genuine Trailer Kit and the connector is plugged into your Kia Sorento, Safe Exit Warning automatically turns OFF to prevent false alerts. In this case, you cannot get assistance from Safe Exit Warning. Pay extra attention when you open your doors while the function is inactive. A Kia genuine Trailer Kit automatically determines whether a trailer is connected and communicates with the vehicle's electronic systems.
TIP
If you restart the vehicle, Safe Exit Warning conveniently maintains its last user-configured setting to ensure seamless daily operation.

To change the Warning Methods settings while the vehicle is ON, tap Setup > Vehicle > Driver Assistance > Warning Methods on the infotainment system screen of your Kia Sorento. You can customize the following audio and priority settings to tailor the alert feedback:
-
Warning Volume: Adjusts the output volume of the warning sound. If you turn OFF the Warning Volume setting, the function will still warn you at a preset low volume level to guarantee your continuous safety on the road.
-
Driving Safety Priority: Automatically lowers all other multimedia and entertainment audio volumes whenever the Driving Safety system of the Kia Sorento triggers an active warning alert.
TIP

Your configured Warning Methods settings may also apply universally to the warning indicators of other integrated driver assistance systems across the vehicle.
-
Warning Methods maintain their customized last user settings when you turn OFF and subsequently restart the vehicle engine.

The specific setting menu layout or availability may vary for your vehicle depending on your regional market features and trim specifications.
