Operating conditions
-
Whenever you activate the left or right turn signal, the Blind-Spot View Monitor instantly projects a high-definition image of the corresponding blind spot directly onto your Kia Telluride instrument cluster, significantly increasing situational awareness.
Non-operating conditions
To ensure you maintain focus on primary vehicle alerts, the Blind-Spot View Monitor will automatically turn OFF under the following conditions:
-
When you deactivate the turn signal.
-
When the hazard light system is active, as these take priority.
-
When the Kia Telluride instrument cluster displays a high-priority warning message that requires the driver's full attention.
Blind-Spot View Monitor malfunction
If you notice the instrument cluster display flickering, or if the camera feed fails to appear when the turn signal is engaged, there may be a system fault. In such cases, please have the Blind-Spot View Monitor inspected by a certified technician at an authorized Kia dealer to restore full functionality to your Kia Telluride.
TIP
-
Please note that the Blind-Spot View Monitor utilizes Wide Side View camera images, which may cause objects to appear at a slightly different distance compared to the actual physical space or the standard infotainment display. Always complement the digital view with a manual shoulder check for maximum safety.
-
To maintain crystal-clear visibility, keep the camera lens free of dirt, mud, and road grime. When cleaning the lens, avoid aggressive chemical solvents—such as gasoline, acetone, or high-alkaline detergents—as these can permanently damage the specialized lens coating and degrade the performance of your Kia Telluride camera systems.
