Kia Cadenza: Reverse Parking Collision-Avoidance Assist (PCA) / System Setting and Operation

System setting

Reverse Parking Collision-Avoidance Assist can be activated from the Settings menu in the LCD display or infotainment system display by following the procedure below.

1. Set the Engine Start/Stop button to the ON or START position.

2. Select ‘Settings → Driver Assistance → Parking Safety → Active Assist / Warning Only / Off’ in the infotainment system display.

- The system is ready for operation when ‘Active Assist’ is selected. In the event of an imminent collision with a pedestrian or an object, the system warns the driver or applies braking force to help avoid the collision.
- The system is ready for operation when ‘Warning Only’ is selected. In the event of an imminent collision with a pedestrian, the system warns the driver but does not assist in braking.
- The system deactivates when ‘Off’ is selected.

Operating conditions

Reverse Parking Collision-Avoidance Assist enters the ready status, when ‘Active Assist’ or ‘Warning Only’ is selected in the AVN system screen and the following conditions are satisfied :

• The trunk is closed
• The shift lever is in R (Reverse)
• Vehicle speed is below 6 mph (10 km/h)
• The rear view camera and the rear ultrasonic sensors are in normal conditions

The driver needs to select ‘Active Assist’ on the infotainment system display for collision-avoidance assist.

The solid lines behind the vehicle in the cluster LCD display indicates that the system is ready to assist the driver.

Note that the system assists the driver only once. The driver has to shift the gear to R (Reverse) from another gear position to reactivate the system.

The performance of Reverse Parking Collision-Avoidance Assist may vary under certain conditions. If the vehicle speed exceeds 2 mph (3 km/h), the system can assist only pedestrian collision avoidance.

As always, be careful when backing up your vehicle and be aware of your surroundings.
