ADVANCED DRIVER ASSISTANCE SYSTEMS (ADAS)
ADASEMERGENCY BRAKING
COLLISION WARNINGFCA is designed to detect and monitor a vehicle ahead or detect a pedestrian in the roadway through
front view camera recognition and front radar signals to warn the driver that a collision is imminent
and, if necessary, temporarily apply emergency braking. Initially, FCA provides Forward Collision Warning
(FCW ) when it detects a potential collision with a vehicle, pedestrian, or cyclist, emitting an audible
warning and visual alert on the instrument cluster A.
If the system detects that the collision risk has increased, Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA)
automatically applies the brakes to reduce your speed, potentially
helping to reduce the effects of a possible collision.
FCA User Settings:
• FCA is ON by default in most Kia models. FCA can be turned
ON/ OFF by going to the User Settings in the Instrument Cluster
• To go to User Settings , press the Mode button B on the Steering Wheel when the vehicle is at a
standstill, gear shift in Park and with the ignition on or the Engine Start /Stop button* in the ON position
• Press the OK button C up/down and select User Settings , then Driver Assistance
– In some models, go to Driving Assist, then Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist or Forward Collision
Warning and press the OK button C
– In other models, go to Forward Safety and select Active Assist, Warning Only or Off
• Active Assist: Vehicle will provide a warning (audible & visual) and apply the brakes if needed
• Warning Only: Vehicle will provide a warning only (audible & visual)
• Off: System is off, no warnings or braking provided
• To adjust the FCA initial warning activation time, go to User Settings , Driver Assistance, Warning
Timing, then select Normal, Early or Late, depending on your Kia model:
–
Early/Normal: Maximizes the amount of distance between the vehicles before the initial warning occurs
– Late: Reduces the amount of distance between the vehicles before the initial warning occurs
FCA/FCW will become active when the:
• Ignition is on or the Engine Start /Stop button* is ON
• Vehicle is traveling faster than 5 mph
• Electronic Stability Control (ESC) is ON

Actual User Settings steps may vary by model. Refer to section 4 in the Owner’s Manual for more information.
Lane Keeping Assist (LKA)*†6
Lane Keeping Assist (LK A) is designed to detect the lane markers on the road with a front view camera on the windshield, and may
assist the driver’s steering to potentially help keep the vehicle in the lane. When turned on, the instrument cluster indicator
will initially illuminate white when turned on. It will remain white when the vehicle is traveling slower than 40 mph or when the
system does not detect the lane markers. When the system detects the lane markers and can assist the steering, the LK A icon will
illuminate green.
If the LK A detects that you are moving outside of your lane, the system may give an audible warning and display Lane Departure
Warning on the instrument cluster. If the vehicle continues to move outside of the lane, LK A may provide steering inputs, trying to
prevent the vehicle from moving outside its lane.
LK A is the operating mode by default when the Lane Safety/LK A button* A is depressed to ON.
There are three available modes:
• Active LK A – Provides more frequent steering inputs than standard LK A
• Lane Keeping Assist – Guides driver to keep vehicle within lanes and provides steering inputs
when vehicle is about to deviate from the lane
• Lane Departure Warning – Alerts driver when the system detects the vehicle leaving the lane.
In this mode the system will not provide steering inputs
All systems will operate under the following conditions:
• The vehicle speed exceeds approximately 40 mph
• LK A recognizes both sides of the lane markers the vehicle is traveling in
• The vehicle is between the lane markers
