Backward Safety

While the Kia EV6 is in the DRIVE READY state, select Setup > Vehicle > Driver Assistance > Parking Safety through the infotainment system.

Backward Safety: Enables warnings and braking intervention when the system determines that a collision with a pedestrian, vehicle, wall, or other object behind the Kia EV6 is likely while reversing.

CAUTION

When a genuine Kia Trailer Kit is installed and connected to the vehicle, Parking Collision-Avoidance Assist is automatically deactivated. Under these circumstances, the Kia EV6 cannot provide assistance through PCA. Always exercise additional caution while reversing with a connected trailer. The genuine Kia trailer system is capable of detecting when a trailer is attached.
