Driver Attention Warning malfunction

Check Driver Assistance system

If the Kia EV6 Driver Attention Warning system is not functioning correctly, a warning message will appear on the instrument cluster for several seconds.

The Master Warning light () will also appear on the Kia EV6 instrument cluster.

If this occurs, have the Kia EV6 Driver Attention Warning system inspected by an authorized Kia dealer.

Driver Attention Warning disabled

Driver Assistance system limited. Camera obscured.

If the front windshield area where the Kia EV6 front view camera is installed, the front radar cover, bumper, or related sensors become covered with snow, rain, mud, dirt, ice, or other foreign material, the detection performance of Driver Attention Warning may be reduced.

Under these conditions, the Kia EV6 Driver Attention Warning function may become temporarily limited or disabled.

If this occurs, a warning message and the Master Warning light () will appear on the instrument cluster, but this does not necessarily indicate a permanent malfunction.

Kia EV6 Driver Attention Warning should operate normally again after the obstruction or foreign material is removed. Always keep the windshield camera area and sensors clean.

If Driver Attention Warning still does not operate properly after removing snow, rain, dirt, trailers, carriers, or other obstructions, have the Kia EV6 inspected by an authorized Kia dealer.
