Your vehicle may be equipped with
the ISG system, which reduces fuel
consumption by automatically shut-
ting down the engine, when the vehi-
cle is at a standstill. (For example :
red light, stop sign and traffic jam)
The engine starts automatically as
soon as the starting conditions are
met.
The ISG system is ON whenever the
engine is running.
✽ ✽
NOTICE 
When the engine automatically
starts by the ISG system, some
warning lights (ABS, ESC, ESC
OFF, EPS or Parking brake warn-
ing light) may turn on for a few sec-
onds.
This happens because of low battery
voltage. It does not mean the system
has malfunctioned.

 Do not disassemble LFA sys-
tem camera temporarily to tint
the window or attach any
types of coatings and acces-
sories. If you disassemble the
camera and assemble it again,
we recommend that you take
your vehicle to an authorized
retailer of Kia products and
have the system checked for
calibration.
 When you replace the wind- shield glass, LFA system cam-
era or related parts of the
steering wheel, take your
vehicle to an authorized retail-
er of Kia products and have
the system checked for cali-
bration.
 The system helps detect lane markers and controls the
steering wheel by a camera,
therefore, if the lane markers
are hard to detect, the system
may not work properly.
(Continued)(Continued)Please refer to “Limitations of
the System”.
 Do not remove or damage the related parts of LFA system.
 You may not hear a warning sound of LFA system if the
audio volume is high.
 Do not place objects on the dashboard that reflects light
such as mirrors, white paper,
etc. This may prevent LFA sys-
tem from functioning proper-
ly.
 Always have your hands on the steering wheel while LFA
system is activated.
 The steering wheel is not con- tinuously controlled so if the
vehicle speed is at a higher
rate when leaving a lane the
vehicle may not be controlled
by the system. The driver
must always follow the speed
limit when using the system.
(Continued)(Continued)
 If you attach objects to thesteering wheel, the system
may not assist steering or the
hands off alarm may not work
properly.

(lane color: white), the steering
wheel indicator ( ) lights up in
green and then the steering control
is initiated. When the system cannot provide
temporary steering inputs, the indi-
cator flashes green and then
changes to white. Even when HDA
system cannot provide temporary
steering inputs, it still controls the
distance from other vehicles.
(For information on non-operating
conditions of steering wheel control,
please refer to “Limitations of LFA
system” on page 5-140.)
