Driving your vehicle
The Lane Keeping Assist System
detects the lane markers on the road
with a front view camera at the front
windshield, and assists the driver’s
steering to help keep the vehicle in
the lanes.When the system detects the vehicle
straying from its lane, it alerts the
driver with a visual and audible warn-
ing, while applying a slight counter-
steering torque, trying to prevent the
vehicle from moving out of its lane.
✽ ✽

NOTICE
• Driver is responsible for being
aware of surroundings and steer-
ing the vehicle for safe driving
practices.
• LKA SYSTEM helps prevent the driver from moving out of the lane
unintentionally by assisting the
driver’s steering. However, the
system is just a convenience func-
tion and the steering wheel is not
always controlled. While driving,
the driver should pay attention to
the steering wheel.
• The operation of the LKA SYS- TEM can be cancelled or not work
properly according to road condi-
tion and surroundings. Always be
cautious when driving.

WARNING
Do not turn the steering wheel
suddenly when the vehicle is

Do not disassemble a front view
camera temporarily for tinted win-
dow or attaching any types of coat-
ings and accessories. If you disas-
semble the camera and assemble
it again, take your vehicle to an
authorized Kia dealer and have the
system checked to need a calibra-
tion.
When you replace the windshield glass, front view camera or related
parts of the steering, take your
vehicle to an authorized Kia dealer
and have the system checked to
need a calibration.
The system detects lane markers and controls the steering wheel by
a front view camera, therefore, if
the lane markers are hard to
detect, the system may not work
properly. Always be cautious when
using the system. When the lane markers are hard to
detect, please refer to “Driver’s
Attention”.
Do not remove or damage the related parts of LKA SYSTEM.
Do not place objects on the crash pad that reflects light such as mir-
rors, white paper, etc. it may cause
malfunction of LKA SYSTEM if the
sunlight is reflected.
You may not hear warning sound of LKA SYSTEM because of the
excessive audio sound.
If you continue to drive with your hands off the steering wheel, the
LKA SYSTEM will stop controlling
the steering wheel after the hands
off alarm. After then, if you drive
with your hands on the steering
wheel, the control will be activated
again.✽ ✽
NOTICE
• If the vehicle speed is high, steer-
ing 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 SYS-
TEM.
• If you attach objects to the steer- ing wheel, the system may not
assist steering.
• If you attach objects to the steer- ing wheel, hands off alarm may
not work properly.

NOTICE
• The warning message may appear
late according to road conditions.
Therefore, always have your
hands on the steering wheel while
driving.
• If you hold the steering wheel lightly, the system would generate
hands off warning because LKAS
can treat the situation as you do
not grab the wheel.
If the driver still does not have their
hands on the steering wheel after
several seconds, the system will not
control the steering wheel and warn
the driver only when the driver cross-
es the lane markers.
However, if the driver has their hands
on the steering wheel again, the sys-
tem will start controlling the steering
wheel. The driver is responsible for accu-
rate steering.

- In bad weather
- In bad road condition
- When the steering wheel needsto be controlled by the driver fre-
quently.
