Your vehicle may be equipped with
the ISG system, which reduces fuel
consumption by automatically shut-
ting down the engine, when the vehi-
cle is at a standstill. (For example :
red light, stop sign and traffic jam)
The engine starts automatically as
soon as the starting conditions are
met.
The ISG system is ON whenever the
engine is running.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
When the engine automatically
starts by the ISG system, some
warning lights (ABS, ESC, ESC
OFF, EPS or Parking brake warn-
ing light) may turn on for a few sec-
onds.
This happens because of low battery
voltage. It does not mean the system
has malfunctioned.
Auto stop
To stop the engine in idle stop
mode
Stop the vehicle completely by
pressing the brake pedal when the
shift lever is in the D (Drive) or N
(Neutral) position.
The engine will stop and the green
AUTO STOP( ) indicator on the
instrument cluster will illuminate.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
If you open the engine hood in auto
stop mode, the following will hap-
pen:
• The ISG system will deactivate
(the light on the ISG OFF button
will illuminate).
• A message will appear on the LCD display. (Continued)

- Green: steering assist mode activa- tion
(Continued)
- Depending on your surround- ings and road conditions, theLFA system could fail to rec-ognize the lane and stop work-ing. In turn, extra caution isrequired while driving withthe LFA system on.
- Be sure to check the non- operating conditions and cau-tions for the driver beforeusing the LFA system.
- Do not place reflective materi- als such as white paper ormirror on the dashboard pad.Sunlight reflections can causethe LFA system to not operateproperly.
- Loud audio volumes can pre- vent the occupants from hear-ing the alarm sounds from theLFA system
(Continued)(Continued)- Keeping your hands off the wheel while driving will triggerthe hands-off warning anddeactivate the steering-assistsystem. Put your hands backon the wheel, then the steer-ing-assist system will be re-activated.
- When driving at a high speed, the steering assist force canbecome weak and the vehiclecan drive out of its lane. Extracaution is required, and com-ply with the speed limit.
- Attaching an object to the steering wheel could detersteering assistance.
- Attaching an object to the steering wheel could deter thehands-off alarming system.

LFA system activation
If the vehicle is inside the lane with
both lanes recognized by the sys-
tem, and there is no steep steering
made by the driver, the LFA system
changes into steering assist mode.
The indicator light will come on
green, and the system helps the
vehicle stay in line by controlling the
steering wheel.
When the lane is not recognized, the
steering wheel is controlled in a lim-
ited manner depending on the pres-
ence and the driving condition of the
preceding vehicle.
When the steering wheel is not con-
trolled temporarily, the indicator light
will flash green and changes to white.
Once the LFA system recognizes the
lanes, the color of the lane on the
screen will change from gray to
white.
Warning
If you keep your hands off the wheel
while driving with the LFA system
assisting the steering, the hands-off
warning will be triggered. (The 1
st
warning: warning message, the 2nd
warning: warning message and warn-
ing alarm)
If the driver keeps hands off the
wheel even with the hands-off warn-
ing on, the steering assist is tem-
porarily released automatically.
If you put your hands back on the
wheel with the LFA system released,
the steering assist will re-start.
WARNING
The LFA system ensures the
vehicle stays in its lane. The
LFA system does not guarantee
100% safety. Make sure you
make decisions on the road
after checking the road condi-
tions and safety matters while
driving. Never completely rely
on your LFA system.

LFA system malfunction
The warning message popped up
(turned off after a certain period of
time)means a problem with the LFA
system.
Have the system checked by an
authorized K900 Kia dealer.
CAUTION
Hands-off warnings may be
delayed depending on roadconditions. Always keep yourhands on the steering wheelwhile driving.
Hold the steering wheel tight. Otherwise, the LFA systemcould misjudge that the driverhands are off the wheel, and ahands-off warning may occur.
CAUTION
It is the driver’s responsibility to operate the steering wheelwhile driving.
With the LFA system on, The driver can steer the vehicle byoperating the wheel on hisown.
We recommend that the driver turns off the LFA system andoperates the steering wheelby himself in the following sit-uations:
- bad weather- bad road conditions- when frequent operation of the steering wheel is required
- When towing other vehicle or trailers
The steering wheel can feel heavy or light if the LFA sys-tem is assisting the steering.

Limitation of the system
If the driver turns on the turn signallight or the emergency warning
light to change the lane
Operate the turn signal light switch before changing the lane.
If you change the lane without operating the turn signal lights,
steering reaction force of the wheel
may occur.
Once the LFA system is turned on or the lane is changed, the vehicle
should be in the center of the road
to switch to the steering assist
mode. If the driver keeps driving
along the lane, the LFA system will
not assist the steering.
When the ESC or VSM is activat- ed, the system does not assist
steering.
When driving on a curved road at a high speed, steering assist mode
may not work.
When driving at a speed faster than 95 mph (150 km/h), steering
assist mode may not work. When sudden steering is made,
the system could be temporarily
deactivated.
If you change the lane in a hurry, the system does not assist the
steering.
If the vehicle suddenly stops, it does not assist the steering.
If the lane is too narrow or too wide, steering is not assisted.
If either of the lanes is not recog- nized, the steering is not assisted
If the radius is too small for the curve
Cautions for the driver
If the lane recognition is difficult or
limited for the LFA system as shown
below, the driver may need to be
careful because it may not operate or
may cause unnecessary operation.
• Roads or lane markings in bad con-
dition
- When The lane is tainted or invisible
- When the driver cannot see the lane due to rain, snow, dust,
sand, oil, puddles, etc
- When roads are set or the colors of the lane and road are not dis-
tinctive
- If there is a sign other than the lane near the lane or a mark sim-
ilar to the lane
- When the lane is not clear or damaged
- If the road is covered in the shad- ows of objects around the road,
such as medians, guard rails,
noise walls, and trees

If you disassemble the cam-
era and assemble it again,
take your vehicle to an author-
ized K900 Kia dealer and have
the system checked to need a
calibration.
When you replace the wind- shield glass, front view cam-
era or related parts of the
steering, take your vehicle to
an authorized K900 Kia dealer
and have the system checked
to need a calibration.
The system is designed to detect lane markers using a
front view camera. If the lane
markers are hard to detect,
then the system may be limit-
ed. Always be cautious when
using the system.
When the lane markers are hard to detect, please refer to
“Driver’s Attention”.
(Continued)(Continued)
Do not remove or damage therelated parts of LKA system.
Do not place objects on the dashboard that reflects light
such as mirrors, white paper,
etc. This may prevent the LKA
system from functioning
properly.
You may not hear warning sound of LKA system because
of the excessive audio sound.
When other beeps such as the seat belt warning sound are in
operation and override the
LKA alarming system, LKA
beeps may not occur.
If the vehicle speed is high, steering 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 LKA system.
(Continued)(Continued)
If you attach objects to thesteering wheel, the system
may not assist steering.
If you attach objects to the steering wheel, hands off
alarm may not work properly.

When the conditions below are met,
LKA will be enable to assist steering.
Vehicle speed is above 40 mph (64km/h).
Both lane markers are detected by LKA.
The vehicle is between the lane markers.
If LKA can assist steering, a green
LKA indicator will illuminate.
If the vehicle moves out its lane
because steering torque for assis-
tance is not enough, the line indica-
tor of deviation direction will blink
and the warning sound or steering
wheel vibration warning is provided.
If the driver takes hands off the steer-
ing wheel for several seconds while
the LKA is activated, the system will
warn the driver.
WARNING
The warning message mayappear late according to road
conditions. Therefore, always
have your hands on the steer-
ing wheel while driving.
If you hold the steering wheel lightly, the system would gen-
erate hands off warning
because LKA system can
treat the situation as you do
not grab the wheel.
