Kia EV2: Driver assistance guide

WARNING

As the driver, do not rely blindly on the advanced Driver Assistance Systems equipped on your Kia EV2. These automated systems do not replace the absolute necessity for maintaining constant attention and practicing safe driving habits. These systems operate under the fundamental assumption that the human driver will maintain active control of the vehicle at all times, and they are engineered primarily to help reduce impact severity in a collision while assisting the driver under normal driving conditions. There are inherent technological limits to the degree of environmental recognition accuracy and control performance that these systems can deliver, as detailed more fully throughout this manual. The driver remains solely and exclusively responsible for monitoring the vehicle’s surroundings and driving safely. Complete, undivided attention is required whilst driving your Kia EV2, and you must always be fully prepared to take immediate corrective action, apply the mechanical brakes, or steer the vehicle manually to avoid potential crashes. This is NOT an autonomous or self-driving vehicle. Failure to exercise proper care and vigilance when driving may result in severe injury, death, or extensive vehicle damage.

TIP

The specific driver assistance system descriptions and graphical layouts displayed on your infotainment screen may slightly differ from the printed content of this manual, depending on your vehicle's current infotainment system software version.
