SMART mode selects the
proper driving mode
among ECO, NORMAL
and SPORT by judging
the driver's driving habits
(i.e. mild or dynamic)
from the brake pedal
depression or the steer-
ing wheel operation.
Press the DRIVE MODE button to activate SMART mode. When
SMART mode is activated, the
indicator illuminates on the instru-
ment cluster.
The indicator illuminates in blue when the driver's driving is catego-
rized to be mild. It illuminates in
white when the driver's driving is
categorized to be normal. It illumi-
nates in red when the driver's driv-
ing is categorized to be dynamic
during abrupt braking or sharp
curves. The vehicle starts in NORMAL
mode if the engine was turned
OFF in SMART mode.
SMART mode automatically con- trols driving characteristics, such
as gear shifting patterns, engine
torque, and ride quality in accor-
dance with the driver's driving
habits.✽ ✽ NOTICE
• When you drive the vehicle mildly
drive the vehicle in SMART mode,
the driving mode changes to ECO
mode to improve fuel efficiency.
However, the actual fuel efficiency
may differ in accordance with
your driving situation (i.e.
upward/downward slope, vehicle
deceleration/acceleration).
• When you drive the vehicle dynamically drive the vehicle in
SMART mode by abruptly decel-
erating or sharply turning, the
driving mode changes to SPORT
mode. However, it may adversely
affect fuel economy.SMART

Driving your vehicle
Various driving situations which you
may encounter in SMART mode
The driving mode automaticallychanges to ECO mode after a cer-
tain period of time when you gently
depress the accelerator pedal
(Your driving is categorized to be
mild).
The driving mode automatically changes from SMART ECO mode
to SMART NORMAL mode after a
certain period of time when you
sharply or repetitively depress the
accelerator pedal.
The driving mode automatically changes to SMART NORMAL
mode with the same driving pat-
terns when the vehicle starts to
drive on an upward slope of a cer-
tain angle. The driving mode auto-
matically returns to SMART ECO
mode when the vehicle enters a
leveled road. The driving mode automatically
changes to SMART SPORT when
you abruptly accelerate the vehicle
or repetitively operate the steering
wheel (Your driving is categorized
to be sporty). In this mode, your
vehicle drives in a lower gear for
faster accelerating/decelerating
and increased engine brake per-
formance.
You may still sense the engine brake performance, even when you
release the accelerator pedal in
SMART SPORT mode. It is
because your vehicle remains in a
lower gear over a certain period of
time.
The driving mode automatically changes to SMART SPORT mode
only in dynamic driving situations.
In most normal driving situations
the driving mode sets to either
SMART ECO mode or SMART
NORMAL mode. Limitation of SMART mode
The SMART mode may be limited in
following situations. (The OFF indica-
tor illuminates in those situations.)
The driver manually moves the
shift lever : It deactivates SMART
mode.
The cruise control is activated : The cruise system may deactivate
the SMART mode. (SMART mode
is not automatically deactivated
just by activing the cruise system.)
The transmission oil temperature is either extremely low or extremely
high : The SMART mode can be
active in most of the normal driving
situations. However an extremely
high/ low transmission oil tempera-
ture may temporarily deactivate the
SMART mode, because the trans-
mission condition is out of normal
operation condition.

Driving your vehicle
The Lane Keeping Assist system is
designed to detect 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, in an attempt to pre-
vent the vehicle form moving out of
its lane.
✽ ✽NOTICE
• LKA helps prevent the driver
from moving out of the lane unin-
tentionally by assisting the dri-
ver’s steering. However, the sys-
tem is just a convenience function
and the steering wheel is not
always controlled. While driving,
the driver should pay attention to
the steering wheel.
• The operation of the LKA can be cancelled or not work properly
because of road conditions and the
surroundings. Always be cautious
when driving.
• Do not disassemble the front view camera when installing tint on the
windows or applying any type of
coatings or accessories.
If you disassemble the camera and
assemble it again, take your vehi-
cle to an authorized Kia dealer
and have the system checked to
need a calibration. (Continued)
LANE KEEPING ASSIST (LKA) SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING
The driver is responsible for
being aware of surroundings
and steering the vehicle while
employing safe driving prac-
tices.
Do not steer the steering wheel suddenly when the
steering wheel is being assist-
ed by the system.
WARNING
The Lane Keeping Assist System
is a supplemental system and is
not a substitute for safe driving
practices. It is the responsibility
of the driver to always pay atten-
tion and drive safely.

• When you replace the windshield
glass, front view camera or sys-
tem, take your vehicle to an
authorized Kia dealer and have
the system check to see if you 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 limited. Always be cau-
tious when using the system.
• When the lane markers are hard to detect, please refer to the
“Driver’s Attention” section in
this Chapter
• Do not remove or damage the related parts of LKA.
• Do not place objects on the dash- board that reflect light such as
mirrors, white paper, etc. This
may prevent the system from
functioning. (Continued)(Continued)
• If the audio sound is excessive, you
may not hear the warning sound
of the LKA.
• 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. Afterwards, if you drive
with your hands on the steering
wheel, the control will be activated
again.
• At high vehicle speeds, the steer- ing torque of LKA may not be
enough to keep your vehicle with-
in the lane. If so, the vehicle may
move out of its lane. Therefore,
obey any applicable speed limits
when using LKA.
• If you attach objects to the steer- ing wheel, the system may not
assist steering.
• If you attach objects to the steer- ing wheel, the hands off alarm
may not work properly.LKA operation
To activate/deactivate the LKA:
With the ignition switch in the ON
position, press the LKA button locat-
ed on the instrument panel on the
lower left hand side of the driver.
The indicator in the cluster display
will initially illuminate white.
When the indicator(white) activated
in the previous ignition cycle, the
system turns on without any control.
If you press the LKA button again,
the indicator on the cluster display
will go off.

The color of the indicator will change
depend on the condition of LKA.- White : Sensor does not detect the lane marker or vehicle
speed is less than 64
km/h (40 mph).
- Green : Sensor detects the lane
marker and system is able
to control the steering.LKA activation
To see the LKA screen on the LCD
display in the cluster, Tab to the
ASSIST mode ( ).
For further details, refer to the [menu settings] section in Chapter 4.
After LKA is activated, if both lane markers are detected, vehicle
speed is over 64 km/h (40 mph)
and all the activation conditions are
satisfied, a green steering wheel
indicator will illuminate, and the
steering wheel will be controlled.WARNING
The Lane Keeping Assist system
is a system to help prevent the
driver from leaving the lane.
However, the driver should not
rely solely on the system and
should always check the road
conditions while driving.

If the speed of the vehicle is over 64
km/h (40 mph) and the system
detects lane markers, the color
changes from gray to white
When the conditions below are met,
LKA will be enabled to assist steering.
Vehicle speed is above 64 km/h
(40 mph).
Both lane markers are detected by LKA.
The vehicle is between the lane markers.
If LKA can assist steering, a green
steering wheel indicator will illumi-
nate.
Warning
If the vehicle leaves a lane, the lane
marker you cross will blink on the
LCD display.
If the vehicle moves out of its lane
because the steering torque for
assistance is insufficient, the line
indicator will blink. If all the conditions to activate LKA
are not satisfied, the system will
convert to Lane Departure
Warning (LDW) and only warn the
driver when the driver crosses the
lane markers. In this scenario, the
LDW system does not provide any
steering inputs to the vehicle for
you. Accordingly, you must take the
necessary steps to maintain con-
trol of the vehicle and keep it with-
in the lanes.
