Kia Niro: Rear cross traffic alert / Warning type

the warning light will blink on the outside rearview mirror.
- 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.

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.
