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.

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

Your vehicle's fuel economy depends
mainly on your style of driving, where
you drive and when you drive.
Each of these factors affects how
many miles (kilometers) you can get
from a gallon (liter) of fuel. To operate
your vehicle as economically as pos-
sible, use the following driving sug-
gestions to help save money in both
fuel and repairs:
Drive smoothly. Accelerate at a
moderate rate. Don't make "jack-
rabbit" starts or full-throttle shifts
and maintain a steady cruising
speed. Don't race between stop-
lights. Try to adjust your speed to
the traffic so you don't have to
change speeds unnecessarily.
Avoid heavy traffic whenever pos-
sible. Always maintain a safe dis-
tance from other vehicles so you
can avoid unnecessary braking.
This also reduces brake wear.
Drive at a moderate speed. The faster you drive, the more fuel your
vehicle uses. Driving at a moderate
speed, especially on the highway,
is one of the most effective ways to
reduce fuel consumption. Don't "ride" the brake pedal. This
can increase fuel consumption and
also increase wear on these com-
ponents. In addition, driving with
your foot resting on the brake pedal
may cause the brakes to overheat,
which reduces their effectiveness
and may lead to more serious con-
sequences.
Take care of your tires. Keep them inflated to the recommended pres-
sure. Incorrect inflation, either too
much or too little, results in unnec-
essary tire wear. Check the tire
pressures at least once a month.
Be sure that the wheels are aligned correctly. Improper align-
ment can result from hitting curbs
or driving too fast over irregular
surfaces. Poor alignment causes
faster tire wear and may also result
in other problems as well as
greater fuel consumption. Keep your vehicle in good condi-
tion. For better fuel economy and
reduced maintenance costs, main-
tain your vehicle in accordance
with the maintenance schedule in
chapter 7. If you drive your vehicle
in severe conditions, more frequent
maintenance is required (see
chapter 7 for details).
Keep your vehicle clean. For maxi- mum service, your vehicle should
be kept clean and free of corrosive
materials. It is especially important
that mud, dirt, ice, etc. not be
allowed to accumulate on the
underside of the vehicle. This extra
weight can result in increased fuel
consumption and also contribute to
corrosion.
Travel lightly. Don't carry unneces- sary weight in your vehicle. Weight
reduces fuel economy.
Don't let the engine idle longer than necessary. If you are waiting
(and not in traffic), turn off your
engine and restart only when
you're ready to go.

All season tires
Kia specifies all season tires on
some models to provide good per-
formance for use all year round,
including snowy and icy road condi-
tions. All season tires are identified
by ALL SEASON and/or M+S (Mud
and Snow) on the tire sidewall. Snow
tires have better snow traction than
all season tires and may be more
appropriate in some areas.
Summer tires
Kia specifies summer tires on some
models to provide superior perform-
ance on dry roads. Summer tire per-
formance is substantially reduced in
snow and ice. Summer tires do not
have the tire traction rating M+S
(Mud and Snow) on the tire side wall.
If you plan to operate your vehicle in
snowy or icy conditions, Kia recom-
mends the use of snow tires or all
season tires on all four wheels.
Snow tires
If you equip your car with snow tires,
they should be the same size and
have the same load capacity as the
original tires. Snow tires should be
installed on all four wheels; other-
wise, poor handling may result.
Snow tires should carry 4 psi (28
kPa) more air pressure than the
pressure recommended for the stan-
dard tires on the tire label on the dri-
ver's side of the center pillar, or up to
the maximum pressure shown on the
tire sidewall, whichever is less.
Do not drive faster than 75 mph (120
km/h) when your vehicle is equipped
with snow tires.WARNING
Do not use summer tires at tem-
peratures below 45°F (7°C) or
when driving on snow or ice. At
temperatures below 45°F (7°C),
summer tires can lose elastici-
ty, and therefore traction and
braking power as well. Change
the tires on your vehicle to win-
ter or all-weather tires of the
same size as the standard tires
of the vehicle. Both types of
tires are identified by the M+S
(Mud and Snow) marking. Using
summer tires at very cold tem-
peratures could cause cracks to
form, thereby damaging the
tires permanently.
