ator pedal approximately 3 sec-
onds after the vehicle is stopped by
the Smart Cruise Control System
with no other vehicle ahead or a
vehicle stopped far away in front.
The engine speed is in dangerous range. The SCC system has malfunc-
tioned.
The accelerator pedal is continu- ously depressed for long time.
Each of these actions will cancel the
SCC operation. (The set speed and
vehicle-to-vehicle distance on the
LCD display will go off.)
If the SCC is cancelled automati-
cally, the SCC will not resume even
though the RES+ or SET- lever is
moved. Also, the EPB (electronic
parking brake) will be applied when
the vehicle is stopped.
- When activating the AEB(Autonomous Emergency Braking)
If the SCC is cancelled by a reason
not mentioned, have the system
checked by an authorized Kia dealer.✽ ✽ NOTICE
If the system is automatically can-
celled, the warning chime will sound
and a message (“Smart Cruise
Control canceled”) will appear for a

The vehicle will maintain the set
speed, when the lane ahead is clear.
The vehicle will slow down or speed up within selected speed to
maintain the selected distance,
when there is a vehicle ahead of
you in the lane. (A vehicle will
appear in front of your vehicle in
the LCD display only when there is
an actual vehicle in front of you)
If the vehicle ahead speeds up, your vehicle will travel at a steady
cruising speed after accelerating to
the selected speed.
The warning chime sounds and LCD display blinks if it is hard to
maintain the selected distance to
the vehicle ahead.
If the warning chime sounds, actively adjust the vehicle speed by
depressing the brake pedal
according to the road condition
ahead and driving condition.
Even if the warning chime is not acti- vated, always pay attention to the
driving conditions to prevent danger-
ous situations from occurring.

RCTA (Rear Cross Traffic Alert)
When your vehicle moves backwards
from a parking position, the sensor
detects approaching vehicles to the
left or right side direction and gives
information to the driver.
Operating conditions
Go to the User Settings Mode ➝
Driving Assist ➝ Rear Collision
Warning and select “Rear Cross
Traffic Alert” on the LCD display.
The system will turn on and stand
by to be activated.
Select RCTA again, to turn the sys- tem off.
If the vehicle is turned off, the RCTA system will remember the
last settings upon restart. Always
turn the RCTA system off when not
in use.
The system operates when the vehicle speed is below 6.2 mph (10
km/h) with the shift lever in R
(Reverse). The RCTA (Rear Cross Traffic
Alert) detecting range is 1.6 feet
(0.5 m) ~ 65 feet (20 m) based on
the side direction. If the approach-
ing vehicle speed is
2.5 mph (4 km/h) ~ 22 mph (36
km/h) within sensing range, it is
detected. However, the system
sensing range can vary based on
conditions. Always pay attention to
your surroundings.

Do not disassemble a front viewcamera temporarily for tinted win-
dow or attaching any types of coat-
ings and accessories. If you disas-
semble the camera and assemble
it again, take your vehicle to an
authorized Kia dealer and have the
system checked to need a calibra-
tion.
When you replace the windshield glass, front view camera or related
parts of the steering, take your
vehicle to an authorized Kia dealer
and have the system checked to
need a calibration.
The system detects lane markers and controls the steering wheel by
a front view camera, therefore, if
the lane markers are hard to
detect, the system may not work
properly. Always be cautious when
using the system.
When the lane markers are hard to detect, please refer to “Driver’s
Attention”.
Do not remove or damage the related parts of LKAS. Do not place objects on the crash
pad that reflects light such as mir-
rors, white paper, etc. it may cause
malfunction of LKAS if the sunlight
is reflected.
You may not hear warning sound of LKAS because of the excessive
audio sound.
If you continue to drive with your hands off the steering wheel, the
LKAS will stop controlling the
steering wheel after the hands off
alarm. After then, if you drive with
your hands on the steering wheel,
the control will be activated again.
If the vehicle speed is high, steer- ing torque for assistance will not be
enough to keep your vehicle within
the lane. If so, the vehicle may
move out of its lane. Obey speed
limit when using LKAS.
If you attach objects to the steering wheel, the system may not assist
steering.
If you attach objects to the steering wheel, hands off alarm may not
work properly.LKAS operation
To activate/deactivate the LKAS:
With the ignition switch in the ON
position, press the LKAS button
located on the instrument panel on
the lower left hand side of the driver.
The indicator in the cluster display
will initially illuminate white.
When the indicator (white) activated
in the previous ignition cycle, the
system turns on without any control.
If you press the LKAS button again,
the indicator on the cluster display
will go off.

The color of indicator will change
depend on the condition of LKAS.
- White : Sensor does not detect the
lane marker or vehicle
speed is less than 40 mph
(64 km/h).
- Green : Sensor detects the lane
marker and system is able
to control the steering.LKAS activation
To see the LKAS screen on the
LCD display in the cluster, Tab to
the Assist mode ( ).
After LKAS is activated, if both lane markers are detected, vehicle
speed is over 40 mph (64 km/h)
and all the activation conditions are
satisfied, a green steering wheel
indicator will illuminate and the
steering wheel will be controlled.
WARNING
The Lane Keeping Assist
System is a system to help pre-
vent the driver from leaving the
lane. However, the driver should
not solely rely on the system
but always check the road con-
ditions when driving.

Driving your vehicle
If the speed of the vehicle is over40 mph (64 km/h) and the system
detects lane markers, the color
changes from gray to white. When the conditions below are met,
LKAS will be enable to assist steer-
ing.
Vehicle speed is above 40 mph (64
km/h).
Both lane markers are detected by LKAS.
The vehicle is between the lane markers.
If LKAS can assist steering, a green
steering wheel indicator will illumi-
nate.
Warning
If the vehicle leaves a lane, the lane marker you cross will blink on
the LCD display.
If the vehicle moves out its lane because steering torque for assis-
tance is not enough, the line indi-
cator of deviation direction will
blink.
