KIA Niro: Driver Attention Warning operation

Basic function

The basic function of Driver Attention Warning is to warn the driver 'Consider taking a break'.

Taking a break

A: Consider taking a break

Warning message will appear on the cluster and an audible warning will sound to suggest that the driver take a break, when the driver's attention level is below a certain level.

• Driver Attention Warning will not suggest a break when the total driving time is shorter than 5 minutes or 10 minutes has not passed after the last break was suggested.

Driver Attention Warning (DAW) operates under the following conditions:

• Your driving speed: Approximately 0~200 km/h (0~120 mph).

WARNING

For your safety, change the Settings after parking the vehicle at a safe location.

CAUTION

• Driver Attention Warning may suggest a break depending on the driver's driving pattern or habits, even if the driver doesn't feel fatigue.
• Driver Attention Warning is a supplemental function and may not be able to determine whether the driver is inattentive.
• The driver who feels fatigued should take a break at a safe location, even though there is no break suggestion by Driver Attention Warning.
