When the Rear View Monitor system experiences an electrical fault or hardware malfunction, the live video image on your Kia EV2 screen may abnormally appear tinted green, blue, or completely black.
When the Rear View Monitor is not working properly, the display screen flickers, or the backup camera image fails to display correctly, have your vehicle promptly inspected by a professional workshop. Kia strongly recommends visiting an authorised Kia dealer or certified service partner.
When your vehicle is stopped for a long time in winter or your vehicle is parked in an indoor parking lot, the exhaust fumes may temporarily blur the image.
The screen may appear abnormally under the following circumstances:
When the tailgate is open
WARNING
The Wide Rear View camera does not encompass the complete area behind your vehicle. Always check the area behind your vehicle using the inside and outside rearview mirrors before parking or backing up your vehicle.
Distance shown on the Rear View Monitor screen may differ from actual distance due to image calibration by the Wide Rear View camera. If your vehicle is tilted due to loaded cargo, Rear Parking Guidelines may be incorrect. When you are parking or driving, be sure to directly check your vehicle’s surroundings for safety.
Always keep the wide-rear view camera lens clean to maintain optimal camera performance and Rear View Monitor operation. Do not clean the camera lens with chemical solvents that may damage it, including strong detergents that contain high alkaline or volatile organic solvents such as petrol, acetone, and so on.
Driving with the tailgate open is abnormal. For your safety, be aware and drive safely.
