Collision Warning! (1st warning)
This warning message appears on
the LCD display with a warning
chime.
Additionally, some vehicle system
intervention occurs by the engine
management system to help decel-
erate the vehicle.
- Your vehicle speed may deceleratemoderately.
- The FCA system limitedly controls the brakes to preemptively mitigate
impact from a collision.
Emergency braking! (2nd warning)
This warning message appears on
the LCD display with a warning
chime.
Additionally, some vehicle system
intervention occurs by the engine
management system to help decel-
erate the vehicle.
- The FCA system limitedly controlsthe brakes to preemptively mitigate
impact from a collision. The brake
control is maximized just before a
collision.
Brake operation
In an urgent situation, the braking system enters into the ready status
for prompt reaction against the dri-
ver’s depressing the brake pedal.
The FCA system provides addi- tional braking power for optimum
braking performance, when the
driver depresses the brake pedal.
The braking control is automatical- ly deactivated, when the driver
sharply depresses accelerator
pedal or when the driver abruptly
operates the steering wheel.
The braking control is automatical- ly cancelled, when risk factors dis-
appear.

Warning message and warninglight
When the sensor is covered or the
sensor lens is dirty with foreign sub-
stances, such as snow or rain, the
FCA system may not be able to
detect vehicles. In this case, a warn-
ing message ("Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist (FCA) system dis-
abled. Camera blocked") will appear
to notify the driver. Remove the for-
eign substances to allow the FCA
system to function property.
This is not a malfunction with the
FCA. To operate the FCA again,
remove the foreign substances. The FCA may not properly operate in
an area (e.g. open terrain), where
any vehicles or substances are not
detected after turning ON the engine.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
• Always keep the sensor clean and
free of dirt and debris.
• Be careful not to apply unneces- sary force on the sensor. If the sen-
sor is forcibly moved out of proper
alignment, the FCA system may
not operate correctly. In this case,
a warning message may not be dis-
played. In this case, have the vehi-
cle inspected by an authorized Kia
dealer.

By detecting the vehicle or pedestri-
an ahead the vehicle, the sensor
helps to operate the Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist when the
vehicle is at risk of a collision.

ate properly, always make sure the
sensor or sensor cover is clean and
free of dirt, snow, and debris. Dirt,
snow, or foreign substances on the
lens may adversely affect the sens-
ing performance of the sensor.Warning message and warning

Driving your vehicle
The cruise control system allows you
to program the vehicle to maintain a
constant speed without depressing
the accelerator pedal.
This system is designed to function
above approximately 30 km/h (20
mph).
If the cruise control is left on,
(CRUISE indicator light in the instru-
ment cluster illuminated) the cruise
control can be switched on acciden-
tally. Keep the cruise control system
off (CRUISE indicator light OFF)
when the cruise control is not in use,
to avoid inadvertently setting a speed.Use the cruise control system only
when traveling on open highways in
good weather.
Do not use the cruise control when
driving in heavy or varying traffic, or
on slippery (rainy, icy or snow-cov-
ered) or winding roads or over 6%
up-hill or down-hill roads.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
