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.
CAUTION
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.

following: - Normal:
When this condition is selected, the
initial Rear Cross-Traffic Collision
Warning is activated normally. If this
setting feels too sensitive change the
option to ‘Later’.
The warning activation time may feel
late if the side/rear vehicle abruptly
accelerates.
- Later:
Select this warning activation time
when the traffic is light and you are
driving in a low speed. However, if

Maintenance
EXPLANATION OF SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE ITEMS

ditions, more frequent oil and filter
changes are required.

tor) belt
The HSG belt should be changed at
the intervals specified in the mainte-
nance schedule.
Fuel filter (for gasoline)
Kia gasoline vehicles are equipped a
lifetime fuel filter that integrated with

Maintenance

Bright-metal maintenance
To remove road tar and insects,
use a tar remover, not a scraper or
other sharp object.
To protect the surfaces of bright-
metal parts from corrosion, apply a
coating of wax or chrome preser-
vative and rub to a high luster.
During winter weather or in coastal
areas, cover the bright metal parts
with a heavier coating of wax or
preservative. If necessary, coat the
parts with non-corrosive petroleum
jelly or other protective compound.
Underbody maintenance
Road salt and other corrosive chemi-
cals are used in cold weather states to
melt snow and prevent ice accumula-
tion. If these chemicals are not regu-
larly removed, they will corrode the
vehicle underbody and over time dam-
age fuel lines, the fuel tank retention
system, the vehicle suspension, the
exhaust system, and even the body
frame.
Wash the undercarriage of your
vehicle regularly during the winter
and whenever your vehicle has
been exposed to such salts or
chemicals.
Do a thorough washing of the
undercarriage at the end of the
winter.
Use professional service techni-
cians or governmental inspection
stations to annually inspect for cor-
rosion. Immediately seek an inspection of
your vehicle if you become visually
aware of corrosion flaking or scal-
ing or if you become aware of a
change in vehicle performance,
such as soft or spongey brakes,
fluids leaking, impairment of direc-
tional control, suspension noises
or rattling metal straps.
