Safety features of your vehicle
In a slant or angled collision, theforce of impact may direct the
occupants in a direction where the
air bags would not be able to pro-
vide any additional benefit, and
thus the sensors may not deploy
any air bags. Just before impact, drivers often
brake heavily. Such heavy braking
lowers the front portion of the vehi-
cle causing it to “ride” under a vehi-
cle with a higher ground clearance.
Air bags may not inflate in this
“under-ride” situation because
deceleration forces that are detect-
ed by sensors may be significantly
replaced by such “under-ride” colli-
sions. Front air bags may not inflate in
rollover accidents because front air
bag deployment would not provide
additional occupant protection.
However, side and curtain air bags
may inflate when the vehicle is
rolled over.

✽ ✽
NOTICE
• Do not install any accessories,
such as a license plate bracket or
bumper sticker near the sensor
area. Do not replace the bumper
by yourself. Doing so may
adversely affect the sensing per-
formance.
• Always keep the sensor/bumper area clean.
• Use only a soft cloth to wash the vehicle. Also, do not spray highly
pressurized water on the sensor
installed on the bumper.
• Be careful not to apply unneces- sary force on the frontal sensor
area. When the sensor moves out
of the correct position due to
external force, the system may not
operate correctly even without the
warning light or message. In this
case, have the vehicle inspected by
an authorized Kia dealer. (Continued)(Continued)
• Use only the genuine Kia sensor
cover. Do not apply paint on the
sensor cover.
• Do not remove or impact the radar components.
• If the audio volume is too high, you may not be able to hear a
warning alarm from the FCA sys-
tem.
System malfunction
When the FCA is not working prop-
erly, the FCA warning light ( ) will
illuminate and the warning mes-
sage (“Check FCA system”) will
appear for a few seconds. After the
message disappears, the master
warning light ( ) will illuminate. In
this case, have the vehicle inspect-
ed by an authorized Kia dealer.
The FCA warning message may appear along with the illumination
of the ESC warning light.
WARNING
The FCA is only a supplemental
system for the driver’s conven-
ience.
It is the driver's responsibility to
control the vehicle. Do not sole-
ly depend on the FCA system.
Rather, maintain a safe braking
distance, and, if necessary,
depress the brake pedal to
lower the driving speed.

Driving your vehicle
Limitation of the system
The FCA system is designed to mon-
itor the vehicle ahead through radar
signals to warn the driver that a colli-
sion is imminent, and if necessary,
apply emergency braking. In certain
situations, the radar sensor may not
be able to detect the vehicle ahead.
In these cases, the FCA system may
not operate. The driver must pay
careful attention in the following situ-
ations where the FCA operation may
be limited:WARNING
Due to sensing limitation, theFCA may not produce warning
messages or warning alarms
in certain situations. Read the
section “Limitation of the sys-
tem” for more information.
When there is a malfunction with the FCA, the automatic
braking control does not
operate even with other brak-
ing systems normally operat-
ing.
The FCA system only recog- nizes vehicles in front of it
while driving forward. It does
not identify any animals or
vehicles in the opposite direc-
tion.
The FCA cannot recognize cross-traffic or parked vehi-
cles presenting a side-profile.
(Continued)
(Continued)
If the vehicle ahead suddenlystops, there is a risk of colli-
sion. The driver must always
pay caution in case of danger-
ous situations.
When the driver depresses the brake in a risk of collision,
the FCA system may not oper-
ate.

Recognizing vehicles
- Sensor or sensor cover is contam-
inated with foreign substances.
- It heavily rains or snows.
- There is electromagnetic interfer- ence.
- Something in the path of travel deflects the radar waves.
- The vehicle in front has a narrow body. (i.e. motorcycles)
- The vehicle in front is a special vehicle, such as a heavily-loaded
truck or a trailer.
- The vehicle driving is unstable.
- The radar sensor recognition is limited.
- Driving on unpaved and uneven road surfaces, or through sudden
gradient changes.
- In construction zones or on railroad tracks, or there are metallic objects
on the road.
- Driving indoors such as in an underground parking lot. - Entering a tunnel or tollgate.
- There are materials which easily
reflect radar signals. (guardrails,
approaching vehicles, etc.)
- Driving on a curve
The FCA performance may be limit-
ed while driving on a curve. The FCA
may not recognize the vehicle in front
even if in the same lane. It may pro-
duce the warning message and the
warning alarm prematurely, or it may
not produce the warning message or
the warning alarm at all. When driv-
ing on a curve, exercise caution,
maintain a safe braking distance,
and if necessary, depress the brake
pedal to reduce your driving speed in
order to maintain a safe distance.

✽ ✽NOTICE
In some instances, the FCA system
may be canceled when subjected to
electromagnetic interference.
WARNING - Testing the
FCA
The FCA does not operate in
certain situations. Thus, never
test-operate the FCA against a
vehicle or an object. It may
cause a severe injury or even
death.
WARNING - FCA and
Towing
Cancel the FCA in the User
Settings on the LCD display,
before towing another vehicle.
While towing, the brake applica-
tion may adversely affect your
vehicle safety.
WARNING
Use extreme caution when the vehicle in front of you has
cargo that extends rearward
from the cab, or when the
vehicle in front of you has
higher ground clearance.
The FCA system is designed to detect and monitor the
vehicle ahead through sensor
recognition. It is not designed
to detect bicycles, motorcy-
cles, or smaller wheeled
objects such as luggage
bags, shopping carts, or
strollers.

What to do in an emergency
You may not be able to identify a low
tire by simply looking at it. Always
use a good quality tire pressure
gauge to measure the tire's inflation
pressure. Please note that a tire that
is hot (from being driven) will have a
higher pressure measurement than a
tire that is cold (from sitting station-
ary for at least 3 hours and driven
less than 1.6 km (1 mile) during that
3 hour period).
Allow the tire to cool before measur-
ing the inflation pressure. Always be
sure the tire is cold before inflating to
the recommended pressure.
A cold tire means the vehicle has
been sitting for 3 hours and driven for
less than 1.6 km (1 mile) in that 3
hour period.
Never use tire sealant if your vehicle
is equipped with a Tire Pressure
Monitoring System. The liquid
sealant can damage the tire pres-
sure sensors. The TPMS cannot alert you to
severe and sudden tire damage
caused by external factors such as
nails or road debris.
If you feel any vehicle instability, immediately take your foot off the
accelerator, apply the brakes grad-
ually and with light force, and slow-
ly move to a safe position off the
road.
✽ ✽ NOTICE - Protecting TPMS
Tampering with, modifying, or dis-
abling the Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS) components may
interfere with the system's ability to
warn the driver of low tire pressure
conditions and/or TPMS malfunc-
tions. Tampering with, modifying,
or disabling the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS) compo-
nents may void the warranty for
that portion of the vehicle.
This device complies with
Industry Canada licence-exempt

two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause inter-
ference, and
(2) This device must accept any interference, including interfer-
ence that may cause undesired
operation of the device.
