QUICK TIP
EMERGENCY 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 Collision Warning when it detects a potential collision with a vehicle, pedestrian, or cyclist, emitting an audible warning and visual alert on the instrument cluster
If FCA 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
With the turn signal on, if it detects a potential collision, Junction Tu r n i n g A may help to avoid the collision with an oncoming vehicle in an adjacent lane when turning left by applying emergency braking
FCA 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 or the Vehicle Settings* in the Infotainment System
•Only adjust settings when the vehicle is at a standstill, gear shift is in Park and the ignition is on or the Engine Start/Stop button* in the on position
•To access User settings* in the Instrument Cluster - Press the Mode button B on the Steering Wheel to toggle to User Settings Press the OK button C up/down to toggle to Driver Assistance and Forward Safety
•To access Vehicle settings* in the Infotainment System – Press the SETUP key or the onscreen SETUP button Press VEHICLE to enter Vehicle Settings Select Driver Assistance, Driving Safety and Forward Safety
•To adjust the FCA initial warning activation time, go to User Settings , Driver Assistance, Warning Timing, then select Standard or Late, depending on your Kia model:
–
Standard: This setting allows for a nominal 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
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA)†3
For ward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) is not a substitute for safe driving and may not detect all objects in front of the vehicle Always drive safely and use caution
Actual User Set tings steps may var y by model Refer to section 6 in the Owner ’s Manual for more information
REMINDERS:
•
FCA will be activated by default when the ignition is cycled ON, even when previous set ting was OFF
•
If FCA is operating and ESC (Electronic Stabilit y Control) is turned off, FCA is automatically turned off
•
When FCA is off, the FCA warning indicator is on in the Instrument Cluster

Blind-spot Collision Warning (BCW)*†3
BCW uses rear corner radar sensors in the rear bumper to monitor and warn the driver in certain situations if it detects an approaching vehicle in the driver ’s blind spot area, before changing lanes and before exiting a parallel parking space BCW provides Collision Warning when it detects a potential collision with a vehicle, emitting an audible warning and visual alert on the outside rearview mirrors On select Kia models, when exiting a parallel parking space and BCW detects that the collision risk has increased, BCW can help avoid a collision by applying the brakes
Vehicle detection: When another vehicle is detected within BCW warning boundary A, an indicator will illuminate on the outside rearview mirrors B
Collision warning: When vehicle detection warning is on and the driver activates a turn signal, a flashing indicator will illuminate on the outside rearview mirrors and the system will sound a warning
Collision-Avoidance Assist*: On select Kia models, when collision warning has already occurred, and the collision risk has increased, BCW can help avoid a collision by applying the brakes Your vehicle needs to be traveling less than 2 mph, and the approaching vehicle is traveling less than 3 mph
BCW Settings:
•BCW can be turned on/off by going to the User Settings* in the Instrument Cluster or the Vehicle Settings* in the Infotainment System
