Emergency braking (3rdwarning)
The warning message appears on
the LCD display with the warning
alarms.
The AEB controls the brakes with- in certain limit to release shock
from the collision.
The AEB controls the maximum
brakes just before the collision.
Brake operation
In an urgent situation, the brakingsystem enters into the ready status
for prompt reaction against the dri-
ver’s depressing the brake pedal.
The AEB provides additional brak- ing power for optimum braking per-
formance, when the driver
depresses the brake pedal.
The braking control is automatical- ly deactivated, when the driver
sharply depresses the brake pedal,
or when the driver abruptly turns
the steering wheel.
The braking control is automatical- ly canceled, when risk factors dis-
appear.
The driver should always exercise
caution when operating the vehicle,
even though there is no warning
message or warning alarm.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
The AEB operates in accordance
with the risk levels, such as the dis-
tance from the vehicle/passer-by in
front, the speed of the vehicle/pass-
er-by in front, and the driver's vehi-
cle operation. OYG056091N
WARNING
The AEB cannot avoid all colli-
sions. The AEB might not com-
pletely stop the vehicle before
collision, due to ambient weath-
er and road conditions. The
driver has the responsibility to
drive safely and control the
vehicle.

System malfunction
When the AEB is not working prop-
erly, the AEB warning light ( ) will
illuminate and the warning mes-
sage will appear for a few seconds.
After the message disappears, the
master warning light ( ) will illu-
minate. In this case, we recommend
you to have the vehicle inspected by
an authorized Kia dealer. The AEB warning message may
appear along with the illumination
of the ESC warning light. The AEB may unnecessarily pro-
duce warning messages and warn-
ing alarms. Due to the sensing lim-
itation, the AEB may not produce
warning messages or warning
alarm at all.
When there is a malfunction with the AEB, the braking control does
not operate upon detecting a colli-
sion risk even with other braking
systems normally operating.
The AEB operates only for the vehicle / pedestrian in front, while
driving forward. It does not operate
for any animals or vehicles in the
opposite direction.
The AEB can not recognize cross- traffic or parked vehicles present-
ing a side-profile.
OYG056094N
WARNING
The AEB is only a supplemental
system for the driver’s conven-
ience.
The driver still maintains
responsibility to control the
vehicle. Do not solely depend
on the AEB system. Rather,
maintain a safe braking dis-
tance, and, if necessary,
depress the brake pedal to
lower the driving speed.

Limitation of the system
The AEB is an assistant system for a
driver in a certain risky driving condi-
tion and it does not take every
responsibility for all risks from driving
condition.
The AEB monitors the driving situa-
tions through the radar and the cam-
era sensor. For any vehicle activity
occurring outside the sensor range,
the AEB may not function. The driver
should exercise caution in the follow-
ing situations, as the AEB operation
may be limited:
Recognizing vehicles
- The radar or the camera is con-taminated with foreign substances.
- It heavily rains or snows.
- There is electromagnetic interfer- ence.
- Something in the path of travel deflects the radar waves.
- The vehicle in front has a narrow body. (i.e. motorcycles and bicycles)
- The driver’s view is degraded by driving towards sunlight, reflected
light, or darkness.
- The camera cannot see the full profile of the vehicle in front.
- The vehicle in front is a special vehicle, such as a heavily-loaded
truck or a trailer. The vehicle in front does not turn
ON the rear lights, does not have
rear lights, has asymmetric rear
lights, or has rear lights out of angle.
- The outside brightness is greatly changed, such as entering/exiting
the tunnel.
- The vehicle driving is unstable.
- The radar/camera sensor recogni- tion is limited.

Driving your vehicle
- Changing lanes
Even though the vehicle in the next
lane enters into your lane, it may not
be recognized by the AEB, until it
enters the AEB sensing range.
Especially when the vehicle in the
next lane abruptly enters into your
lane, it is more likely not be recog-
nized. Always be attentive to driving
conditions.When the stopped vehicle in front
gets out of the lane, it may not be
recognized by your AEB. Always be
attentive to driving conditions.
- Recognizing the vehicle
When the vehicle in front has heavy
loading extended rearward, or when
the vehicle in front has higher ground
clearance, it may induce a haz-
ardous situation.

ADVANCED SMART CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM (ASCC) (IF EQUIPPED)
➀Cruise indicator
➁ Set speed
➂ Vehicle-to-vehicle distance
The ASCC allows you to program the
vehicle to maintain a set speed so
long as it is not limited by traffic.
When traffic is encountered the vehi-
cle will slow down to maintain a set
distance behind traffic without
depressing the accelerator or brake
pedal.
WARNING - Advanced
Smart Cruise Control
Inadvertent Activation
If the advanced smart cruise
control is left on (CRUISE indi-
cator in the instrument cluster
illuminated), it can be activated
inadvertently. Keep the
advanced smart cruise control
system off (CRUISE indicator
turn off) when the advanced
smart cruise control is not in
use to avoid setting a speed
which the driver is not aware of.
WARNING
- Advanced Smart Cruise Control Limitations
The advanced smart cruise control is a supplemental sys-
tem and is not a substitute for
safe driving practices. It is the
responsibility of the driver to
always check the speed and
distance to the vehicle ahead.

vehicle in front
km/h) : when there is a vehicle in
front 3. Move the lever down (to SET-),
and release it at the desired
speed. The set speed and vehicle
to vehicle distance on the LCD
screen will illuminate.
4. Release the accelerator pedal. The desired speed will automati-
cally be maintained.
If there is a vehicle in front of you, thespeed may decrease to maintain thedistance to the vehicle ahead.
On a steep grade, the vehicle mayslow down or speed up slightly whilegoing uphill or downhill.

(Continued)
- The sensing ability decreas-es if the level of front and
rear vehicle is changed from
the factory.
- Limited visibility (rain, snow, smog, etc)
- Cruise function should not be used when the vehicle is
being towed to prevent any
damage.
The advanced smart cruise control system cannot recog-
nize a stopped vehicle, pedes-
trians or an oncoming vehicle.
Always look ahead cautiously
to prevent unexpected and sud-
den situations from occurring.
Use the advanced smart cruise control system only when trav-
eling on open highways in
good weather conditions.

✽ ✽ NOTICE
• SMART MODE an intelligent driving mode and when the driving style is
economic and fuel efficient, the SMART ECO MODE will be automati-
cally selected. The engine and transaxle system will become more fuel effi-
cient, but the actual fuel economy will depend on various driving factor\
s
(on uphill/ downhill, heavy revving or braking).
• If you make sudden accelerations or turns in SMART MODE, the intelli- gent mode will select SMART SPORT MODE. This may decrease fuel effi-
ciency.

Attributes of SMART MODE.
If the accelerator pedal is pressed
gently, your vehicle will recognize it
as a economic driving style. After
some time, the system will automat-
ically shift to SMART ECO MODE.
If you press the accelerator pedal frequently and heavily in SMART
ECO MODE, the system will auto-
matically shift to SMART COM-
FORT MODE.
Even when driving style has not changed from SMART ECO
MODE, if your vehicle is driven
uphill considerably, the system will
detect the gradient. Then, the
SMART system will automatically
change the setting to the SMART
COMFORT MODE temporarily.
Once your vehicle is out of the hilly
ground, your vehicle will automati-
cally return to the SMART ECO
MODE. The SMART system will recognize
sudden and repetitive acceleration or
steering as aggressive driving and
automatically turn to the SMART
SPORT MODE. Your vehicle will run
at a lower gear in SMART SPORT
MODE compared to those in
SMART COMFORT MODE.
The vehicle's start and stop
response rate will become faster.
When the SMART SPORT MODE is activated, and you take your feet
off the accelerator pedal, the vehi-
cle will remain in low gear and you
may sense engine brake. This is
due to necessary preparatory time
for the next acceleration and is
only comfort.
The SMART SPORT MODE is acti- vated only when very aggressive
and high speed is detected.
Therefore, in average driving
styles, the SMART system will
select either SMART ECO or
SMART COMFORT MODE. The artificial intelligence algorithm
will instantly calculate each driver's
style of driving. So if the driver is
changed to a different person, the
algorithm will measure accordingly.
