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 function 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 110 mph (180 km/h), 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.
