Limitations of Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
is designed to monitor the vehicle
ahead in the roadway through front
view camera recognition to warn the
driver that a collision is imminent,
and if necessary, apply emergency
braking.
In certain situations, the front view
camera may not be able to detect the
vehicle ahead. In these cases,
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
may not operate normally. The driver
must pay careful attention in the fol-
lowing situations where Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist operation
may be limited. The sensor may be limited when:
The function may not operate for
15 seconds after the vehicle is
started or the camera is initialized.
Front view camera contaminated or blocked.
The camera lens is contaminated due to tinted, filmed or coated
windshield, damaged glass, or
sticky foreign matter (sticker, bug,
etc.) on the glass.
Inclement weather such as heavy rain or snow obscures the field of
view of the camera.
There is interference by electro- magnetic waves.
The camera sensor recognition is limited
The vehicle in front is too small to be detected. (for example a motor-
cycle etc.)
The vehicle in front is an oversize vehicle or trailer that is too big to
be detected by the camera recog-
nition function. (for example a trac-
tor trailer, etc.) The camera's field of view is not
well illuminated (either too dark or
too much reflection or too much
backlight that obscures the field of
view).
The vehicle in front does not have their rear lights or their rear lights
does not turned ON or their rear
lights are located unusually.
The outside brightness changes suddenly, for example when enter-
ing or exiting a tunnel.
Light coming from a street light or an oncoming traffic is reflected on
a wet road surface such as a pud-
dle in the road.
The field of view in front is obstructed by sun glare or head
light of oncoming vehicle.
The windshield glass is fogged up; a clear view of the road is obstruct-
ed.
The vehicle in front is driving errat- ically.
The vehicle is on unpaved or uneven rough. surfaces, or road
with sudden gradient changes.

construction zone, railroad, etc.

The camera does not recognize the entire vehicle in front.
The camera is damaged.
The brightness outside is too low such as when the headlamps are
not on at night or the vehicle is
going through a tunnel.
The shadow is on the road by a median strip, trees, etc.
The vehicle drives through a toll- gate.
The windshield glass is fogged up; a clear view of the road is obstruct-
ed. The rear part of the vehicle in front
is not normally visible. (The vehicle
turns in other direction or the vehi-
cle is overturned.)
The adverse road conditions cause excessive vehicle vibrations while
driving.
The sensor recognition changes suddenly when passing over a
speed bump.
The vehicle in front is moving verti- cally to the driving direction.
The vehicle in front is stopped ver- tically.
The vehicle in front is driving towards your vehicle or reversing.
You are on a roundabout and the vehicle in front circles.

WARNING
Take the following precautions
when using Lane Keeping
Assist:
The driver should hold the
responsibility to safely drive
and control the vehicle. Do not
solely rely on Lane Keeping
Assist or drive dangerously.
The operation of Lane Keeping Assist can be can-
celled or not work properly
depending on road conditions
and surroundings. Always be
cautious while driving.
Refer to "Limitations of Lane Keeping Assist" in chapter 5,
if the lane is not detected
properly.
When you are towing a trailer or another vehicle, we recom-
mend that Lane Keeping
Assist is turned off due to
safety reasons.
(Continued)
(Continued)
If the vehicle is driven at highspeed, the steering wheel will
not be controlled. The driver
must always follow the speed
limit when using Lane Keeping
Assist.
If any other function's warn- ing message is displayed or
audible warning is generated,
Lane Keeping Assist warning
message may not be dis-
played and audible warning
may not be generated.
You may not hear the warning sound of Lane Keeping Assist
if the surrounding is noisy.
If you attach objects to the steering wheel, steering may
not be assisted properly.
Lane Keeping Assist may not operate for 15 seconds after
the vehicle is started, or the
front view camera is initial-
ized.
Lane Keeping Assist will not operate when:
(Continued)(Continued)- The turn signal or hazardwarning flasher is turned on
- The vehicle is not driven in the center of the lane when
Lane Keeping Assist is
turned on or right after
changing a lane
- ESC (Electronic Stability Control) or VSM (Vehicle
Stability Management) is
activated
- The vehicle is driven on a sharp curve
- Vehicle speed is below 35 mph (55 km/h) or above 130
mph (210 km/h)
- The vehicle makes sharp lane changes
- The vehicle is suddenly stopped

Safety" to set whether to use each
function.
•If 'Warning Only' is selected, Blind-
Spot Collision Warning will warn
the driver with a warning message,
an audible warning depending on
the collision risk levels.
If 'Off' is selected, Blind-Spot Collision Warning will turn off. When the engine is restarted with
the function off, the 'Blind-Spot
Safety System is Off' message will
appear on the cluster.
If you change the setting from 'Off' to
'Warning Only', the warning light on
the outside rearview mirror will blink
for three seconds.
In addition, if the engine is turned on,
when Blind-Spot Collision Warning is
set to 'Warning Only', the warning
light on the outside rearview mirror
will blink for three seconds.
(Continued)
Blind-Spot Collision Warning may not work properly if thebumper has been replaced, orthe surroundings of the rearcorner radar have been dam-aged or paint has beenapplied.
If a trailer, carrier, etc., is installed, it may adverselyaffect the performance of therear corner radar or Blind-Spot Collision Warning maynot operate.

Driving your vehicle
Blind-Spot Collision Warning dis-abled
When the rear bumper around the
rear corner radar or sensor is cov-
ered with foreign material, such as
snow or rain, or installing a trailer or
carrier, it can reduce the detecting
performance and temporarily limit or
disable Blind-Spot Collision Warning.
If this occurs, the 'Blind-Spot Safety
system disabled. Radar blocked'
warning message will appear on the
cluster.
Blind-Spot Collision Warning will
operate normally when such foreign
material or trailer, etc. is removed,
and then the engine is restarted. If Blind-Spot Collision Warning does
not operate normally after it is
removed, have your vehicle inspect-
ed by an authorized Kia dealer.
ODL3A050289
WARNING
Even though the warning
message does not appear on
the cluster, Blind-Spot
Collision Warning may not
properly operate.
Blind-Spot Collision Warning may not properly operate in
an area (for example, open ter-
rain), where any objects are
not detected right after the
engine is turned on, or when
the detecting sensor is
blocked with foreign material
right after the engine is turned
on.
CAUTION
Turn off Blind-Spot CollisionWarning to install or remove atrailer, carrier, or another attach-ment. Turn on Blind-SpotCollision Warning when fin-ished.

WARNING
Take the following precautions
when using Cruise Control:
Always set the vehicle speed
under the speed limit in your
country. Keep Cruise Control
off when the function is not in
use, to avoid inadvertently
setting a speed. Check that
the CRUISE indicator is off.
Cruise Control does not sub- stitute for proper and safe
driving. It is the responsibility
of the driver to always drive
safely and should always be
aware of unexpected and sud-
den situations occurring.
Always drive cautiously to prevent unexpected and sud-
den situations from occur-
ring. Pay attention to the road
conditions at all times.
Do not use Cruise Control when it may be unsafe to keep
the vehicle at a constant speed:
(Continued)
(Continued)- When driving in heavy traf-fic, or when traffic condi-
tions make it difficult to
drive at a constant speed
- When driving on rainy, icy, or snow-covered roads
- When driving on hilly or windy roads
- When driving in windy areas
- When driving with limited view (possibly due to bad
weather, such as fog, snow,
rain and sandstorm)
Do not use Cruise Control when towing a trailer.
