QR CODEForward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA)†6a
FCA 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 Forward Collision Warning (FCW ) when it detects a potential collision with a vehicle
or pedestrian in front, emitting an audible warning and visual alert on the instrument cluster A.
If the system detects that the collision risk has increased, the FCA
automatically applies the brakes to reduce your speed, potentially
helping to reduce the effects of a possible collision.
FCA can be enabled by going to the User Settings > Driver Assistance >
Forward Safety and selecting Active Assist, Warning Only or Off.
The Warning Timing can be adjusted by going to User Settings >
Driver Assistance > Warning Time and Normal or Late.
FCA will become active when the:
• Engine Start /Stop button is ON
• Vehicle is traveling 6 mph or faster
• Electronic Stability Control (ESC) is ON
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) is not a substitute for safe and proper driving. Always drive safely and use caution. FCA may not always alert the driver when the vehicle is approaching another vehicle.
Images are for illustrative purposes only and may not reflect actual feature or operation.
See section 5 in the Owner’s Manual for more information.
REMINDERS:
• FCA will be activated by default when vehicle power is cycled on, even when previously set to off
• If FCA is operating and the ESC (Electronic Stability Control) is turned off, FCA is automatically turned off
• When FCA is of f, the FCA warning indicator is on in the Instrument Cluster
For illustrative purposes only. Your actual display, buttons and/or features may vary.
The FCA Warning Volume can be adjusted in the User Settings* or the Vehicle Settings* on the audio head unit.

Electronic Stability Control (ESC)†7
ESC is designed to help stabilize the vehicle during certain cornering maneuvers.
It is a good idea to keep ESC turned ON for daily driving whenever possible.

will illuminate).
To turn both Traction Control and Stability Control off, press and hold ESC OFF
button B (ESC OFF indicator will illuminate, and an alert sounds).

Hill-Start Assist Control (HAC)†7
HAC can help prevent the vehicle from rolling backward, for two seconds,
when accelerating from a stop while on a steep incline.
HAC automatically activates whether the ESC is OFF or ON but does NOT
activate when the ESC has malfunctioned.
REMINDERS:
•HAC does not operate when the gear shift is in the P (Park) or the N (Neutral) position
•In the event of HAC system malfunction, see an authorized Kia dealer for service
•HAC does not replace the need to apply brakes while the vehicle is stopped on an incline
•When HAC is active (e.g., accelerating from a stop on an incline), you may notice that the brakes will momentarily remain engaged after you depress the accelerator
•HAC provides a two-second delay before the vehicle may start rolling backward

The Electronic Parking Brake (EPB) system utilizes
an electric motor to engage the parking brake.
Applying the Parking Brake
Depress the brake pedal and pull up the EPB
switch A. Ensure that the indicator light is
illuminated on the instrument cluster.
Releasing the Parking Brake
The EPB will automatically release when the
shifter is placed in Reverse or Drive.
To release EPB manually, depress the brake pedal, then press the
EPB switch A, with the ignition switch in the ON position. Ensure
that the indicator light is OFF.
Auto Hold temporarily maintains the vehicle at
a standstill even though the brake pedal is not
depressed after the driver brings the vehicle to a
complete stop by depressing the brake pedal. Auto
Hold can be turned ON/OFF using the AUTO HOLD
button B on the center panel below the gear shift.
Before Auto Hold will operate, the driver’s door,
engine hood and trunk must be closed.
The AUTO HOLD indicator on the Instrument
Cluster has four states:
White: Standby – With vehicle in Park and at a
standstill, when the AUTO HOLD button B
is pressed on, the indicator will illuminate white.
While driving the vehicle (vehicle is not at a
standstill), the Auto Hold indicator will remain white.
Green: Engaged – When coming to a complete
stop by depressing the brake pedal, the Auto Hold
indicator changes from white to green.
Off (not illuminated) – The indicator will turn OFF when the AUTO HOLD button B is manually pressed OFF or when the EPB is manually turned ON.
Yellow: Malfunction – When the indicator is illuminated yellow, there may be a
system malfunction. Take your vehicle to a local Kia dealer.
REMINDERS:
• Auto Hold only operates when vehicle is in Drive or Neutral. Auto Hold turns off when the ignition is cycled
• To reduce the risk of an accident, do not activate Auto Hold while driving downhill, backing up or parking your vehicle
• Do not solely rely on the Auto Hold system to keep the vehicle stopped. Always pay attention to traf fic and road conditions, and be prepared to depress the brakes
Refer to section 5 in the Owner’s Manual for more information.

QUICK TIPS
REMINDERS:

As a bulb check, the EPB malfunction indicator will illuminate for approximately 3 seconds when the ignition switch is turned ON
•
If the warning light does not illuminate temporarily, or continues to remain lit, take your vehicle to an authorized Kia dealer and have the system checked

•
A click or electric brake motor sound may be heard while operating or releasing the EPB, but these conditions are normal and indicate that the EPB is functioning properly
