NOTICE
• Even though the steering is assist-
ed by the system, the driver may
control the steering.
• The steering wheel may feel heav- ier when the steering wheel is
assisted by the system than when it
is not.
The system will be canceled when:
You change lanes with the turn sig-
nal.
- Using the turn signal to changelanes.
- If you change lanes without the turn signal on, the steering wheel
might be controlled.
LKA can transition to steering assist mode when the car is near
the middle of the lane after the sys-
tem is turned on or the lane was
changed. LKA can not assist steer-
ing if the vehicle follows lane mark-
er too close continuously 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 you drive fast on a sharp
curve.
WARNING
The LKA system is a supple-mental system only. It is the
responsibility of the driver to
safely steer the vehicle and to
maintain it in its lane.
Even though the steering is assisted by the system, the
driver may control the steer-
ing wheel.
Turn off the LKA system and drive without using the sys-
tem in the following situa-
tions:
- In bad weather
- In bad road conditions
- When the steering wheelneeds to be controlled by the
driver frequently.
- When towing a vehicle or trailer.
The steering wheel may feel heavier when the steering
wheel is assisted by the sys-
tem than when it is not.

When you turn the steering wheel suddenly, LKA system will be dis-
abled temporarily.
Driving on a steep slope or hill.DRIVER’S ATTENTION
The driver must be cautious in the
situations below as LKA system may
not work properly when the recogni-
tion of lane markers is poor or limit-
ed :
  When lane and road condition
are poor
• It is difficult to distinguish the lane marker from the road when the
lane marker is covered with dust
or sand.
• It is difficult to distinguish the color of the lane marker from the
road.
• There is something that looks like a lane marker.
• The lane marker is indistinct or damaged.
• The number of lanes increases/ decreases or the lane lines are
crossing (Driving through a toll
plaza/toll gate, merged/divided
lane).
• There are more than two lane markers.
• The lane marker is very thick or thin. (Continued)(Continued)
• The lane marker is not visible due
to snow, rain, stain, a puddle or
other factors.
• A shadow is on the lane marker because of a median strip,
guardrail, noise barriers and etc.
• When the lane markers are com- plicated or a structure substitutes
for the lines such as in a construc-
tion area.
• There are crosswalk signs or other symbols on the road.
• The lane suddenly disappears such as in a construction.
• The lane marker in a tunnel is cov- ered with dirt or oil and etc.
• The lane is very wide or narrow.
  When external conditions inter-

LKA system fail indicator
The LKA system fail indicator (yel-
low) will illuminate if the LKA system
is not working properly. If this occurs,
have the system checked by an
authorized K900 Kia dealer.
LKA system function change
The driver can change LKA to Lane
Departure Warning (LDW) or change
the LKA mode from the AVN.
Lane Keeping Assist
The LKA mode guides the driver to
keep the vehicle within the lanes. It
rarely controls the steering wheel
when the vehicle drives well inside
the lanes. However, it starts to con-
trol the steering wheel when the
vehicle is about to deviate from the
lanes.
Lane Departure Warning
LDW alerts the driver with a visual
and acoustic warning when the sys-
tem detects the vehicle leaving the
lane. In this mode, the system will not
provide steering inputs. When the
vehicle’s front wheel contacts the
inside edge of lane line, LKA issues
the lane departure warning.

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
(BCA) system is automatically deacti-
vated when:
- The vehicle drives a certain dis-
tance away
- 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 accor-
dance with driving situations. Thus,
always pay close attention to road
situations.Detecting Sensor (Front View Camera / Rear Corner Radars)

The driver is responsible for accurate steering.
Do not unnecessarily operate the steering wheel when Blind-
Spot Collision-Avoidance
Assist (BCA) system is in oper-
ation.
Always pay extreme caution while driving. Blind-Spot
Collision-Avoidance Assist
(BCA) system may not oper-
ate or unnecessarily operate
in accordance with your driv-
ing situations.
Blind-Spot Collision- Avoidance Assist (BCA) sys-

driving practices, but a con-
venience function only. It is
the responsibility of the driver
to always drive cautiously to

Lane changing
A vehicle which moves into yourlane from an adjacent lane cannot
be recognized by the sensor until it
is in the sensor's detection range.
The radar may not immediately detect when a vehicle cuts in sud-
denly. Always pay attention to the
traffic, road and driving conditions.
If a slower vehicle moves into your lane, your speed may decrease to
maintain the distance to the vehicle
ahead.
If a faster vehicle which moves into your lane, your vehicle will acceler-
ate to the set speed.
Vehicle recognition
Some vehicles in your lane cannot
be recognized by the sensor:
- Narrow vehicles such as motorcy-cles or bicycles
- Vehicles offset to one side
- Slow-moving vehicles or sudden- decelerating vehicles
- Stopped vehicles
- Vehicles with small rear profile such as trailers with no loads A vehicle ahead cannot be recog-
nized correctly by the sensor if any of
following occurs:
- When the vehicle is pointing
upwards due to overloading in the
luggage compartment
- While the steering wheel is operat- ing
- When driving to one side of the lane
- When driving on narrow lanes or on curves
