- Recognizing the vehicle
Detecting the vehicle in front of you If
the vehicle in front of you has cargo
that extends rearward from the cab,
or when the vehicle in front of you
has higher ground clearance, addi-
tional special attention is required.
The FCA system may not be able to
detect the cargo extending from the
vehicle. In these instances, you must
maintain a safe braking distance
from the rearmost object, and if nec-
essary, depress the brake pedal to
reduce your driving speed in order to
maintain distance.
Recognizing pedestrians
The sensor may be limited when:
- The pedestrian is not fully detected
by the camera recognition system,
for example, if the pedestrian is
leaning over or is not fully walking
upright
- The pedestrian is moving very quickly or appears abruptly in the
camera detection area
- The pedestrian is wearing clothing that easily blends into the back-
ground, making it difficult to be
detected by the camera recogni-
tion system
- The outside lighting is too bright (e.g. when driving in bright sunlight
or in sun glare) or too dark (e.g.
when driving on a dark rural road
at night) - There is an item similar to a per-
son's body structure
- The pedestrian is small
- The pedestrian has impaired mobility
- The sensor recognition is limited
- It is difficult to detect and distin- guish the pedestrian from other
objects in the surroundings, for
example, when there is a group of
pedestrians or a large crowd
- If a sudden change in the sensor recognition takes place while driv-
ing over the speed bump,
- When the vehicle is severely shak- en,
- When driving around circular inter- section after the vehicle in front,
- If the front of the camera lens is contaminated by front glass tinting,
film, water repellent coating, dam-
age on glass, foreign matter (stick-
er, insect, etc.)

- The radar or camera or cameralens is damaged.
- If the headlights of the vehicle are not used at night or in the tunnel
section, or the light is too weak
- If street light or the light of the vehi- cle coming from the opposite is
reflected or when sunlight is
reflected by the water on the road
surface
- When the back light is projected in the direction of the vehicle's motion
(including the headlights of vehi-
cles)
- Road sign, shadow on the road, tunnel entrance, toll gate, partial
pavement
- If the moist on the front windshield is not entirely removed or it is
frozen
- The weather is foggy
- The radar/camera sensor recogni- tion is limited.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
The system may temporarily cancel
due to the strong electric waves.
Pay great caution to the vehicle in
front, when it has heavy loading
extended rearward, or when it has
higher ground clearance.
The FCA system is designed to detect and monitor the vehicle
ahead or detect a pedestrian in the
roadway through radar signals and
camera recognition. It is not
designed to detect bicycles, motor-
cycles, or smaller wheeled objects
such as lug- gage bags, shopping
carts, or strollers.
The FCA does not operate in a cer- tain situation. Thus, never test-
operate the FCA against a person
or an object. It may cause a severe
injury or even death.
When replacing or reinstalling the windshield, front bumper or
radar/camera after removal, we
recommend you to have the vehi-
cle inspected by an authorized Kia
dealer.
WARNING - Testing the
FCA
The FCA does not operate in
certain situations. Thus, never
test-operate the FCA against a
person or an object. It may
cause a severe injury or even
death.
WARNING - FCA and
Towing
Cancel the FCA in the User
Settings on the LCD display,
before towing another vehicle.
While towing, the brake applica-
tion may adversely affect your
vehicle safety.

In heavy traffic
Use switch or pedal to accelerate
In traffic, your vehicle will stop if thevehicle ahead of you stops. Also, if
the vehicle ahead of you starts
moving, your vehicle will start as
well. However, if the vehicle stops
for more than 3 seconds, you must
depress the accelerator pedal or
push up the toggle switch (RES+)
to start driving. If you push the smart cruise control
toggle switch (RES+ or SET-) while
Auto Hold and smart cruise control
is operating the Auto Hold will be
released regardless of accelerator
pedal operation and the vehicle will
start to move. The AUTO HOLD
indicator changes from green to
white. (if equipped with EPB
(Electronic Parking Brake))
Radar to detect distance to the
vehicle ahead
The sensor detects distance to the
vehicle ahead.
If the sensor is covered with dirt or
other foreign matter, the vehicle to
vehicle distance control may not
operate correctly.
Always keep the sensor clean.

Radar check message
When the sensor lens cover is blocked
with dirt, snow, or debris, the Smart
Cruise Control System operation may
stop temporarily. If this occurs, a warn-
ing message will appear on the LCD
display. Remove any dirt, snow, or
debris and clean the radar sensor lens
cover before operating the Smart
Cruise Control System. The Smart
Cruise Control system may not prop-
erly activate, if the radar is totally con-
taminated, or if any substance is not
detected after turning ON the engine
(e.g. in an open terrain).
Smart cruise control system mal-
function message
The message will appear when the
vehicle to vehicle distance control
system is not functioning normally.
Take your vehicle to an authorized
Kia dealer and have the system
checked. Always keep the sensor and
bumper clean.
Use only a genuine Kia sensor cover for your vehicle.
Do not install accessories around the sensor and do not replace the
bumper by yourself. It may interfere
with the sensor performance.
Impact damage to the sensor or sensor area may cause the sensor
to move slightly off position and
result in the smart cruise control
system not operating correctly
without any warning or indicator
from the cluster. If this occurs, have
your vehicle checked by an author-
ized Kia dealer as soon as possi-
ble.
Use only a genuine Kia sensor cover for your vehicle. Do not paint
anything on the sensor cover.
If the front bumper becomes dam- aged in the area around the radar
sensor, the Smart Cruise Control
System may not operate properly.

Driving your vehicle
Your vehicle speed can be reduced
due to a vehicle in the adjacent lane.
Adjust your vehicle speed by
depressing the brake pedal accord-
ing to the road condition ahead and
driving condition. Apply the accelera-
tor pedal and select the appropriate
set speed. Check to be sure that the
road conditions permit safe opera-
tion of the smart cruise control sys-
tem.
On inclines
During uphill or downhill driving, thesmart cruise control system may
not detect a moving vehicle in your
lane, and cause your vehicle to
accelerate to the set speed. Also,
the vehicle speed will rapidly slow
down when the vehicle ahead is
recognized suddenly.
Select the appropriate set speed on inclines and adjust your vehicle
speed by depressing the accelera-
tor or brake pedal according to the
road condition ahead.
Lane changing
A vehicle which moves into yourlane from an adjacent lane cannot
be recognized by the sensor until it
is in the sensor's detection range.
The sensor may not detect imme- diately when a vehicle cuts in sud-
denly. Always pay attention to the
traffic, road and driving conditions.
If a vehicle which moves into your lane is slower than your vehicle,
your speed may decrease to main-
tain the distance to the vehicle
ahead.

If a vehicle which moves into your
lane is faster than your vehicle,
your vehicle will accelerate to the
selected speed.
Your vehicle may accelerate whena vehicle ahead of you disappears.
When you are warned that the vehicle ahead of you is not detect-
ed, drive with caution.Vehicle recognition
Some vehicles ahead in your lane
cannot be recognized by the sensor
as follows:
- Narrow vehicles such as motorcy-cles or bicycles
- Vehicles offset to one side
- Slow-moving vehicles or sudden- decelerating vehicles
- Stopped vehicles
- Vehicles with small rear profile such as trailers with no loads

Driving your vehicle
A vehicle ahead cannot be recog-
nized correctly by the sensor if any of
following occurs:
- When the vehicle is pointingupwards due to overloading in the
liftgate
- While making turns by steering
- When driving to one side of the lane
- When driving on narrow lanes or on curves
Adjust your vehicle speed by
depressing the brake pedal accord-
ing to the road condition ahead and
driving condition. When vehicles are at a standstill and
the vehicle in front of you changes to
the next lane, be careful when your
vehicle starts to move because it may
not recognize the stopped vehicle in
front of you.
In this case, you must maintain a
safe braking distance, and if neces-
sary, depress the brake pedal to
reduce your driving speed in order to
maintain a safe distance.Always look out for pedestrians when
your vehicle is maintaining a dis-
tance with the vehicle ahead.
