When there is a problem with the sys-
tem do one of the following:
Turn the system on after turning
the engine off and on again.
Check if the ignition switch is in the ON position.
Check if the system is affected by the weather. (ex: fog, heavy rain,
etc.)
Check if there is foreign matter on the camera lens
If the problem is not solved, take your
vehicle to an authorized Kia dealer
and have the system checked.LKA function change
The driver can change LKA to Lane
Departure Warning (LDW) system or
change the LKA mode between
Standard LKA and Active LKA from
the User Settings Mode on the LCD
display. The driver can choose them by plac-
ing the ignition switch to the ON posi-
tion and by selecting ‘User Settings’,
‘Driver Assistance’, and ‘Lane
Safety’.
The system is automatically set to
Standard LKA when your vehicle is
first delivered from the factory.
Lane Departure Warning
LDW alerts the driver with a visual
and acoustic warning when the sys-
tem detects the vehicle leaving the
lane. In this mode, the system will not
provide steering inputs. When the
vehicle’s front wheel contacts the
inside edge of lane line, LKA issues
the lane departure warning.
Standard LKA
The Standard LKA mode guides the
driver to keep the vehicle within the
lanes. It provides inputs to the steer-
ing, when the vehicle is about to
deviate from the lanes.
Active LKA
The active LKA mode provides more
frequent steering wheel control in
comparison with the Standard LKA
mode. Active LKA can reduce the dri-
ver’s fatigue to assist the steering for
maintaining the vehicle in the middle
of the lane.

The driver's attention level is dis- played on the scale of 1 to 5. The
lower the number is, the more inat-
tentive the driver is.
The number decreases when the driver does not take a break for a
certain period of time.
The number increases when the driver attentively drives for a cer-

System malfunction
When the “Check System” warning
message appears, the system is not
working properly. In this case, take
your vehicle to an authorized Kia deal-
er and have the system checked.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
It may suggest a break according to
the driver’s driving pattern or
habits even if the driver doesn’t feel
fatigued.
✽ ✽NOTICE
The Driver Attention Warning sys-
tem utilizes the camera sensor on the
front windshield for its operation.
To keep the camera sensor in the
best condition, you should observe
the followings:
- Do not disassemble camera tem-
porarily for tinted window or
attaching any types of coatings and
accessories. If you disassemble a
camera and assemble it again, take
your vehicle to an authorized Kia
dealer and have the system checked.
- Do not place any reflective objects (i.e. white paper, mirror) over the
dashboard. Any light reflection
may prevent the Driver Attention
Warning (DAW) system from
functioning.
- Pay extreme caution to keep the camera sensor out of water.
- Do not arbitrarily disassemble the camera assembly, or apply any
impact on the camera assembly.
• Playing the vehicle audio system at high volume may offset the
Driver Attention Warning system
warning sounds.WARNING
The Driver Attention Warning
system is not a substitute for
safe driving practices. It is the
responsibility of the driver to
always drive cautiously to
prevent unexpected and sud-
den situations from occur-
ring. Pay attention to the road
conditions at all times.
The driver, who feels fatigued, should take a break, even
though there is no break sug-
gestion by the Driver
Attention Warning system.

Driving your vehicle
✽ ✽NOTICE
The Driver Attention Warning sys-
tem does not detect actual driver
fatigue or drowsiness. The system
monitors driving and provides a
warning if it detects inattentive driv-
ing practices. CAUTION
The Driver Attention Warning
system may not provide alertsin the following situations:
The lane detection perform- ance is limited. (For moreinformation, refer to “LaneKeeping Assist (LKA) system”in this chapter.)
The vehicle is erratically driv- en or is abruptly turned forobstacle avoidance (e.g. con-struction area, other vehicles,fallen objects, bumpy road).
Forward drivability of the vehi- cle is severely undermined(possibly due to wide varia-tion in tire pressures, uneventire wear-out, toe-in/toe-outalignment).
(Continued)
(Continued) The vehicle drives on a curvy road.
The vehicle drives on a bumpy road.
The vehicle drives through a windy area.
The vehicle is controlled by the following driver assistancesystems:
- Lane Keeping Assist (LKA) system
- Forward collision-avoidance assist (FCA) System.
- Smart Cruise Control (SCC) System

Driving your vehicle
Remember, your vehicle does notrequire extended warm-up. After
the engine has started, allow the
engine to run for 10 to 20 seconds
prior to placing the vehicle in gear.
In very cold weather, however, give
your engine a slightly longer warm-
up period.
Don't "lug" or "over-rev" the engine. Lugging is driving too slowly in a
very high gear resulting in engine
bucking. If this happens, shift to a
lower gear. Over-revving is racing
the engine beyond its safe limit.
This can be avoided by shifting at
the recommended speed. Use your air conditioning sparingly.
The air conditioning system is
operated by engine power so your
fuel economy is reduced when you
use it.
Open windows at high speeds can reduce fuel economy.
Fuel economy is less in crosswinds and headwinds. To help offset
some of this loss, slow down when
driving in these conditions.
Keeping a vehicle in good operating
condition is important both for econ-
omy and safety. Therefore, have an
authorized Kia dealer perform
scheduled inspections and mainte-
nance.
WARNING - Engine off
during motion
Never turn the engine off to
coast down hills or anytime the
vehicle is in motion. The power
steering and power brakes will
not function properly without
the engine running. In addition,
turning off the ignition while
driving could engage the steer-
ing wheel lock resulting in loss
of vehicle steering. Keep the
engine on and downshift to an
appropriate gear for an engine
braking effect.

Hazardous driving conditions
When hazardous driving conditions
are encountered such as water,
snow, ice, mud, sand, or similar haz-
ards, follow these suggestions:
Drive cautiously and allow extra
distance for braking.
Avoid sudden braking or steering.
When braking with non-ABS brakes pump the brake pedal with
a light up-and-down motion until
the vehicle is stopped.
Do not pump the brake pedal on a
vehicle equipped with ABS. If stalled in snow, mud, or sand,
use the second gear. Accelerate
slowly to avoid spinning the drive
wheels.
Use sand, rock salt, or other non- slip material under the drive
wheels to provide traction when
stalled in ice, snow, or mud.
Rocking the vehicle
If it is necessary to rock the vehicle
to free it from snow, sand, or mud,
first turn the steering wheel right and
left to clear the area around your
front wheels. Then, shift back and
forth between R (Reverse) and any
forward gear in vehicles equipped
with an Intelligent Variable
Transmission / Dual clutch transmis-
sion. Do not race the engine, and
spin the wheels as little as possible.
If you are still stuck after a few tries,
have the vehicle pulled out by a tow
vehicle to avoid engine overheating
and possible damage to the trans-
mission.
SPECIAL DRIVING CONDITIONS
WARNING- Downshifting
Do not downshift with an intelli-
gent variable transmission
while driving on slippery sur-
faces. The sudden change in
tire speed could cause the tires
to skid and result in an acci-
dent.
WARNING- Sudden
Vehicle Movement
Do not attempt to rock the vehi-
cle if people or objects are near-
by. The vehicle may suddenly
move forward or backwards as it
becomes unstuck.
