Driving your vehicle
(Continued)
FCA operates only for the
vehicle/pedestrian in front,
while driving forward. It does
not operate for any animals or
vehicles in the opposite direc-
tion.
FCA does not recognize the
vehicle, which transversally
drives across the crossroad,
or the vehicle, which is parked
in the transversal direction.
If the vehicle in front stops
suddenly, you may have less
control of the brake system.
Therefore, always keep safe
distance between your vehicle
and the vehicle in front of you.
FCA may activate during brak-
ing and the vehicle may stop
suddenly. And the load in the
vehicle may endanger passen-
gers. Therefore, always be
mindful of the load volume in
the vehicle.
(Continued)(Continued)
FCA may not activate if the
driver applies the brake pedal
to avoid risk of collision.
FCA does not operate when
the vehicle is in reverse. In
these circumstances, you
must maintain a safe braking
distance, and if necessary,
depress the brake pedal to
reduce the driving speed in
order to maintain a safe dis
tance.
The regular braking function
will operate normally even if
There is a problem with the
FCA brake control system or
other functions. In this case,
the braking control will not
operate in an imminent colli-
sion.
(Continued)(Continued)
FCA may not activate accord-
ing to driving condition, traffic
on the road, weather, road
condition, etc.
FCA may not activate in
response to all types of vehi-
cles.

- Driving on a curve
The performance of Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist may be
limited when driving on a curved
road.
The front view camera or front radar
sensor recognition system may not
detect the vehicle, pedestrian or
cyclist traveling in front on a curved
road.
This may result in no alarm and brak-
ing when necessary.
Always pay attention to road and
driving conditions, and if necessary,
depress the brake pedal to reduce
your driving speed in order to main-
tain a safe distance.

Driving your vehicle
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
may recognize a vehicle or pedestri-
an or cyclist in the next lane or out-
side the lane when driving on a
curved road.
If this occurs, the system may unnec-
essarily alarm the driver and apply
the brake. Always pay attention to
road and driving conditions, while
driving.- Driving on a slope
The performance of Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist may be
decreased while driving upward or
downward on a slope. The front view
camera or front radar sensor recog-
nition may not detect the vehicle,
pedestrian or cyclist in front.
This may result in unnecessary
alarm and braking or no alarm and
braking when necessary.
When the system suddenly recog-
nizes the vehicle, pedestrian or
cyclist in front while passing over a
slope, you may experience sharp
deceleration.
Always keep your eyes forward while
driving upward or downward on a
slope, and, if necessary, depress the
brake pedal to reduce your driving
speed in order to maintain distance.

- Changing lanes
When a vehicle changes lanes in
front of you, Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist may not immedi-
ately detect the vehicle, especially if
the vehicle changes lanes abruptly.
In this case, you must maintain a
safe braking distance, and if neces-
sary, depress the brake pedal to
reduce your driving speed in order to
maintain a safe distance.When driving in stop-and-go traffic,
and a stopped vehicle in front of you
merges out of the lane, Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist may not
immediately detect the new vehicle
that is now in front of you. In this
case, you must maintain a safe brak-
ing distance, and if necessary,
depress the brake pedal to reduce
your driving speed in order to main-
tain a safe distance.- Recognizing the vehicle
When the vehicle in front has heavy
loading extended rearward, or when
the vehicle in front has higher ground
clearance, it may induce a haz-
ardous situation. Always pay atten-
tion to road and driving conditions,
while driving and, if necessary,
depress the brake pedal to reduce
your driving speed in order to main-
tain distance.

LKA failure indicator
LKA failure indicator (yellow) will illu-
minate if LKA is not working properly.
If this occurs, have the system
checked by an authorized Kia dealer.LKA will be canceled when:
You change lanes with the turn sig-
nal.
- Using the turn signal to change
lanes.
- If you change lanes without the
turn signal on, the steering wheel
might be controlled.
LKA can transit to steering assist
mode when the car is near to mid-
dle of the lane after system on or
the lane was changed. LKA can
not assist steering if the vehicle fol-
lows lane marker too close contin-
uously before transition to steering
assist mode.
The control of ESC (Electronic
Stability Control) or VSM (Vehicle
Stability Management) is activated.
The steering will not be assisted
when your drive fast on a sharp
curve. The steering will not be assisted
when vehicle speed is below 40
mph (60 km/h) and over 110 mph
(180 km/h)
The steering will not be assisted
when you change lanes fast.
The steering will not be assisted
when you brake suddenly.
The steering will not be assisted
when the lane is very wide or nar-
row.
The steering will not be assisted
when only one side lane marker is
detected.
There are more than two lane
markers such as a construction
area.
Radius of a curve is too small.
When you turn steering wheel sud-
denly, LKA will be disabled tem-
porarily.

Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance
Assist
Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance
Assist may apply braking power,
when an approaching vehicle is
detected within a certain distance
next to/behind your vehicle.It gently applies braking power on the
tire, which is located in the opposite
side of the possibly-colliding point.
The instrument cluster will inform the
driver of the system activation.
Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist
is automatically deactivated when:
- When the vehicle is deviated over
a certain distance from its driving
lane.
- The vehicle direction is changed
against the possible-colliding point
- The steering wheel is abruptly
moved
- The brake pedal is depressed
- After a certain period of time
The driver should drive the vehicle in
the middle of the vehicle lanes to
keep the system in the ready status.
When the vehicle drives too close to
one side of the vehicle lanes, the
system may not properly operate.
In addition, the system may not prop-
erly control your vehicle in accordance
with driving situations. Thus, always
pay close attention to road situations.

WARNING
The driver is responsible for
accurate steering.
Do not unnecessarily operate
the steering wheel, when
Blind-Spot Collision-
Avoidance Assist is in opera-
tion.
Always exercise extreme cau-
tion while driving. Blind-Spot
Collision-Avoidance Assist
may not operate or unneces-
sarily operate in accordance
with your driving situations.
Blind-Spot Collision-
Avoidance Assist is not a sub-
stitute for safe driving prac-
tices, but a convenience func-
tion only. It is the responsibil-
ity of the driver to always
drive cautiously to prevent
unexpected and sudden situa-
tions from occurring. Pay
attention to the road condi-
tions at all times.
