FCA warning message and
control
FCA produces warning messages
and warning alarms in accordance
with the collision risk levels of follow-
ings like vehicle’s sudden braking in
front or lack of headway or collision
to pedestrians or cyclist. Also, it con-
trols the brakes in accordance with
the collision risk levels.
The driver can select the initial warn-
ing activation time in the Settings
menu in the Infotainment System
screen. The options for the initial
Forward Collision Warning include
Normal or Late initial warning time.
Collision Warning (1st warning)

Driving your vehicle
Brake operation
In an urgent situation, the braking
system enters into the ready status
for prompt reaction to assist the driv-
er in depressing the brake pedal.
FCA provides additional braking
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 accelerator
pedal, or when the driver abruptly
operates the steering wheel.
The braking control is automatical-
ly canceled, when risk factors dis-
appear.WARNING
FCA cannot avoid all collisions.
FCA might not completely stop
the vehicle before a collision,
due to ambient, weather and
road conditions. The driver has
the responsibility to drive safely
and control the vehicle.
WARNING
FCA operates in accordance
with the risk levels, such as the
distance from the vehicle in
front, the speed of the vehicle in
front, and the driver's vehicle
operation. For the system to
activate, do not attempt risky
driving.
CAUTION
The driver should always pay
great caution to vehicle opera-
tion, even though there is no
warning message or warning
alarm.
If any other warning sound
such as seat belt warning
chime is already generated,
Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist warning may not
sound.
Excessive audio volume may
disturb the sound of the sys-
tem warning alarm.

System malfunction
When FCA is not working properly,
the FCA warning light ( ) will illu-
minate and the warning message
will appear for a few seconds. After
the message disappears, the mas-
ter warning light ( ) will illuminate.
In this case, have your vehicle
inspected by an authorized Kia
dealer.
The FCA warning message may
appear along with the illumination
of the ESC warning light.
WARNING
FCA is only a supplemental
system for the driver’s con-
venience. The driver has the
ultimate responsibility to con-
trol and operate the vehicle
safely. Do not solely depend
on FCA. Rather, maintain a
safe braking distance, and, if
necessary, depress the brake
pedal to lower the driving
speed.
In certain instances and
under certain driving condi-
tions, FCA may activate unin-
tentionally. This initial warning
message appears on the LCD
display with a warning chime.

(Continued)
Also, in certain instances the
front radar sensor or camera
recognition system may not
detect the vehicle, pedestrian
or cyclist ahead. FCA may not
activate and the warning mes-
sage will not be displayed.
FCA may unnecessarily pro-
duce the warning message
and the warning alarms. Also,
due to the sensing limitation,
FCA may not produce the
warning message and the
warning alarm at all.
When there is a malfunction
with FCA, the braking control
does not operate upon detect-
ing a collision risk even with
other braking systems nor-
mally operating.

Driving your vehicle
(Continued)
FCA operates only for the
vehicle/pedestrian in front,
while driving forward. It does
not operate for any animals or
vehicles in the opposite direc-
tion.
FCA does not recognize the
vehicle, which transversally
drives across the crossroad,
or the vehicle, which is parked
in the transversal direction.
If the vehicle in front stops
suddenly, you may have less
control of the brake system.
Therefore, always keep safe
distance between your vehicle
and the vehicle in front of you.
FCA may activate during brak-
ing and the vehicle may stop
suddenly. And the load in the
vehicle may endanger passen-
gers. Therefore, always be
mindful of the load volume in
the vehicle.
(Continued)(Continued)
FCA may not activate if the
driver applies the brake pedal
to avoid risk of collision.
FCA does not operate when
the vehicle is in reverse. In
these circumstances, you
must maintain a safe braking
distance, and if necessary,
depress the brake pedal to
reduce the driving speed in
order to maintain a safe dis
tance.
The regular braking function
will operate normally even if
There is a problem with the
FCA brake control system or
other functions. In this case,
the braking control will not
operate in an imminent colli-
sion.
(Continued)(Continued)
FCA may not activate accord-
ing to driving condition, traffic
on the road, weather, road
condition, etc.
FCA may not activate in
response to all types of vehi-
cles.

- Driving on a curve
The performance of Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist may be
limited when driving on a curved
road.
The front view camera or front radar
sensor recognition system may not
detect the vehicle, pedestrian or
cyclist traveling in front on a curved
road.
This may result in no alarm and brak-
ing when necessary.
Always pay attention to road and
driving conditions, and if necessary,
depress the brake pedal to reduce
your driving speed in order to main-
tain a safe distance.

Driving your vehicle
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
may recognize a vehicle or pedestri-
an or cyclist in the next lane or out-
side the lane when driving on a
curved road.
If this occurs, the system may unnec-
essarily alarm the driver and apply
the brake. Always pay attention to
road and driving conditions, while
driving.- Driving on a slope
The performance of Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist may be
decreased while driving upward or
downward on a slope. The front view
camera or front radar sensor recog-
nition may not detect the vehicle,
pedestrian or cyclist in front.
This may result in unnecessary
alarm and braking or no alarm and
braking when necessary.
When the system suddenly recog-
nizes the vehicle, pedestrian or
cyclist in front while passing over a
slope, you may experience sharp
deceleration.
Always keep your eyes forward while
driving upward or downward on a
slope, and, if necessary, depress the
brake pedal to reduce your driving
speed in order to maintain distance.

- Changing lanes
When a vehicle changes lanes in
front of you, Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist may not immedi-
ately detect the vehicle, especially if
the vehicle changes lanes abruptly.
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.When driving in stop-and-go traffic,
and a stopped vehicle in front of you
merges out of the lane, Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist may not
immediately detect the new vehicle
that is now in front of you. In this
case, you must maintain a safe brak-
ing distance, and if necessary,
depress the brake pedal to reduce
your driving speed in order to main-
tain a safe distance.- 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. Always pay atten-
tion to road and driving conditions,
while driving and, if necessary,
depress the brake pedal to reduce
your driving speed in order to main-
tain distance.

Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance
Assist
Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance
Assist may apply braking power,
when an approaching vehicle is
detected within a certain distance
next to/behind your vehicle.It gently applies braking power on the
tire, which is located in the opposite
side of the possibly-colliding point.
The instrument cluster will inform the
driver of the system activation.
Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist
is automatically deactivated when:
- When the vehicle is deviated over
a certain distance from its driving
lane.
- The vehicle direction is changed
against the possible-colliding point
- The steering wheel is abruptly
moved
- The brake pedal is depressed
- After a certain period of time
The driver should drive the vehicle in
the middle of the vehicle lanes to
keep the system in the ready status.
When the vehicle drives too close to
one side of the vehicle lanes, the
system may not properly operate.
In addition, the system may not prop-
erly control your vehicle in accordance
with driving situations. Thus, always
pay close attention to road situations.
