Kia K900: Advanced vehicle safety management (AVSM)
The AVSM assists the driver by providing notification is the system detects on object ahead that is too close to the vehicle and which may require the dirver to apply the brake pedal or reduce vehicle speed. If the AVSM detects such an object, the system will issue a caution message, provide a warning sound, and the seat belt vibrate.
- If the AVSM senses the object ahead is too close to the vehicle that the driver needs to operate the brake pedal, the warning light above will illuminate. Immediately reduce your speed.
- If the AVSM senses objects, the warning sound also operates and the seat belt vibrates.
Immediately reduce your speed.
This system is only a supplemental system and it is not intended to, nor does it replace the need for extreme care and attention of the driver. The sensing range and objects detectable by the sensors are limited.
Pay attention to the road conditions at all times.
