Turn signals and lane change
signals
The ignition switch must be on for the
turn signals to function. To turn on
the turn signals, move the lever up or
down (A). The green arrow indicators
on the instrument panel indicate
which turn signal is operating.
They will self-cancel after a turn is
completed. If the indicator continues
to flash after a turn, manually return
the lever to the OFF position.
To signal a lane change, move the
turn signal lever slightly and hold it in
position (B). The lever will return to
the OFF position when released. If an indicator stays on and does not
flash or if it flashes abnormally, one of
the turn signal bulbs may be burned
out and will require replacement.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
If an indicator flash is abnormally
quick or slow, a bulb may be burned
out or have a poor electrical connec-
tion in the circuit.

The Lane Keeping Assist (LKA) sys-
tem 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, trying to prevent the
vehicle from moving out of its lane.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
Driver is responsible for being
aware of surroundings and steering
the vehicle, and safe driving prac-
tices.
LANE KEEPING ASSIST (LKA) SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING
Do not turn the steering wheel
suddenly when the vehicle is
being directed by the LKA sys-
tem. This can result in a sudden
loss of control and crash of the
vehicle.OCK057037L

When you replace the windshield glass, front view camera or sys-
tem, take your vehicle to an author-
ized Kia dealer and have the sys-
tem checked.
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 cautious
when using the system. When the lane markers are hard to
detect, please refer to “Driver’s

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.✽ ✽
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.
