Lane Following Assist mal-
function
The warning message popped up
(turned off after a certain period of
time)means a problem with Lane
Following Assist. If this occurs, we
recommend that the system be
checked by an authorized Kia dealer.
Limitation of Lane Following
Assist
If the driver turns on the turn signal
light or the emergency warning
light to change the lane
- Operate the turn signal lightswitch before changing the lane
- If you change the lane without operating the turn signal lights,
steering reaction force of the
wheel may occur.
Once Lane Following Assist is turned on or the lane is changed,
the vehicle should be in the center
of the road to switch to the steering
assist mode. If the driver keeps
driving along the lane, Lane
Following Assist will not assist the
steering.
When the ESC or VSM is activat- ed, the function does not assist
steering.
When driving on a curved road at a high speed, steering assist mode
may not work.
When driving at a speed faster than 180 km/h (110 mph), steering
assist mode may not work.

It is the driver’s responsibility to operate the steering wheelwhile driving.
With Lane Following Assist on, the driver can steer thevehicle by operating the wheelon his own.
We recommend that the driver turns off Lane FollowingAssist and operates the steer-ing wheel by himself in the fol-lowing cases
- bad weather- bad road conditions- when frequent operation of the steering wheel is required
- when towing other vehicle or trailers
The steering wheel can feel heavy or light if LaneFollowing Assist is assistingthe steering.

3. Pull the suspected fuse straight
out. Use the removal tool provided
on the engine compartment fuse
panel cover.
4. Check the removed fuse; replace it
if it is blown.
Spare fuses are provided in the
engine compartment fuse panel.
5. Push in a new fuse of the same
rating, and make sure it fits tightly
in the clips.
If it fits loosely, consult an authorized
Kia dealer.
If you do not have a spare, use a
fuse of the same rating from a circuit
you may not need for operating the
vehicle, such as the power outlet
fuse.
If the head lamp, turn signal lamp,
stop signal lamp, fog lamp, DRL, tail
lamp, HMSL do not work and the
fuses are OK, check the fuse panel
in the engine compartment. If a fuse
is blown, it must be replaced.

nal lamp, or tail lamp malfunction
even without any problem to the
lamps, have the vehicle checked by
an authorized Kia dealer for assis-
tance.

except fuses or relays into
fuse/relay terminals, such as a
driver or wiring. It may cause
contact failure and system
malfunction.
Do not plug in screwdrivers or
aftermarket wiring into the ter-
minal originally designed for
fuse and relays only. The elec-
trical system and wiring of the
vehicle interior may be dam-
aged or burned due to contact
failure.
If you directly connect the
wire on the taillight or replace
the bulb which is over the reg-
ulated capacity to install trail-
ers, etc., the inner junction
block can get burned.
