Lane Keeping Assist and Lane Departure Warning are not substitutes for safe driving and may not always alert the driver if the vehicle is driven outside of its lane. Always drive safely and use caution.
For illustrative purposes only. Your actual display, buttons and/or features may vary.
Actual User Settings steps may vary by model. Refer to section 4 in the Owner’s Manual for more information.
Lane Keeping Assist (LKA)*†6
Lane Keeping Assist (LK A) is designed to detect the lane markers on the road with a front view camera on the windshield, and may
assist the driver’s steering to potentially help keep the vehicle in the lane. When turned on, the instrument cluster indicator
will initially illuminate white when turned on. It will remain white when the vehicle is traveling slower than 40 mph or when the
system does not detect the lane markers. When the system detects the lane markers and can assist the steering, the LK A icon will
illuminate green.
If the LK A detects that you are moving outside of your lane, the system may give an audible warning
and display Lane Departure Warning on the instrument cluster. If the vehicle continues to move
outside of the lane, LK A may provide steering inputs, trying to prevent the vehicle from moving
outside its lane.
LK A is the operating mode by default when the Lane Safety/LK A button* A is depressed to ON.
There are three available modes:
• Active LK A – Provides more frequent steering inputs than standard LK A
• Lane Keeping Assist – Guides driver to keep vehicle within lanes and provides steering inputs
when vehicle is about to deviate from the lane
• Lane Departure Warning – Alerts driver when the system detects the vehicle leaving the lane.
In this mode the system will not provide steering inputs
All systems will operate under the following conditions:
• The vehicle speed exceeds approximately 40 mph
• LK A recognizes both sides of the lane markers the vehicle is traveling in
• The vehicle is between the lane markers
When the front-view camera does not detect the lane traveling in, the lanes are not illuminated
When the front-view camera detects the lane traveling in, both lanes are illuminated
L ANE KEEPING ASSISTL ANE KEEPING ASSISTL ANE KEEPING ASSISTL ANE KEEPING ASSIST
When the front-view camera detects the vehicle moving outside of the lane traveling in, a vehicle crossing lane indicator will blink, either on the left or right lane (as shown in both images above)

Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT)*
Some Kia vehicles are equipped with Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT ) for automatic transmissions.
The following are unique driving tips for the Dual Clutch Transmission:
• To hold the vehicle stationary on an incline, the service brake or parking brake MUST be used or the gear shift MUST be in
the (P) Park position. If the vehicle is held stationary by applying the accelerator pedal on a slope, the clutch/transmission
may overheat, resulting in damage
• Avoid aggressive launches on steep grades as this may result in an overheated clutch and transmission
• A slight time lag may be experienced at takeoff from standstill during aggressive acceleration maneuvers
If the clutch is overheating, an amber warning light* will be displayed in the instrument cluster.
Should this condition occur, pull over and place the vehicle in Park and idle the engine.
Refer to section 5 in the Owner’s Manual for additional information on Automatic Gear Shift or DCT operation or call Kia Consumer Affairs for additional information.
