Kia Carens: RCTA (Rear cross traffic alert) / Warning type
- If an approaching vehicle detected by sensors, the warning is chime and
the warning light will blink on the outside rearview mirror. The system will
notify the driver through LCD.
- If the detected vehicle is out of detection range, moving away in the opposite
direction or moving slow, the warning is cancelled.
- The system may not be operating properly due to other factors or circumstances,
so always pay attention to your surrounding.
❈ If the bumper on either side is blocked by a barrier or vehicles, the system
sensing ability may be deteriorated.
WARNING
- The warning light on the outside rearview mirror will illuminate whenever
a vehicle is detected at the rear side by the system. To avoid accidents, do
not focus only on the warning light and neglect to see the surrounding of the
vehicle.
- Drive safely even though the vehicle is equipped with a BSD (Blind spot
detection) system. Do not solely rely on the system but check for yourself before
changing lanes. The system may not alert the driver in some conditions so always
check the surroundings while driving.
CAUTION
- The system may not work properly if the bumper has been replaced or if
a repair work has been done near the sensor.
- The detection area differs according to the roads width. If the road
is narrow the system may detect other vehicles in the second next lane.
- On the contrary, if the road is very wide the system may not detect other
vehicles in the next lane.
- The system might be turned off due to strong electromagnetic waves.
