vated in the previous ignition cycle,
the system turns on without any con-
trol. If you press the LKA system but-
ton again, the indicator on the cluster
display will go off.The color of indicator will change
depend on the condition of LKA sys-
tem.

speed is less than 40 mph
(60 km/h).
- Green : Sensor detects the lane marker and system is
able to control the steer-
ing.
System setting
The driver can change LKA to Lane
Departure Warning (LDW) or change
the LKA mode from the LCD display.
“User Settings → Driver Assistance →

the vehicle within the lanes. It rarely
controls the steering wheel, when
the vehicle drives well inside the
lanes. However, it starts to control
the steering wheel, when the vehicle
is about to deviate from the lanes.

Lane Keeping Assist system
malfunction
If there is a problem with the sys-tem a message will appear. If the
problem continues the LKA failure
indicator will illuminate.
LKA failure indicator
LKA failure indicator (yellow) will illu-
minate if LKA is not working properly.
If this occurs, have the system
checked by an authorized Kia dealer. LKA system will be canceled when:
You change lanes with the turn sig-
nal.
- Using the turn signal to changelanes.
- If you change lanes without the turn signal on, the steering wheel
might be controlled.
LKA system can transit to steering assist mode when the car is near
to middle of the lane after system
on or the lane was changed. LKA
system can not assist steering if
the vehicle follows lane marker too
close continuously before transi-
tion to steering assist mode.
The control of ESC (Electronic Stability Control) or VSM (Vehicle
Stability Management) is activated.
The steering will not be assisted when your drive fast on a sharp
curve.

When you turn steering wheel sud- denly, LKA system will be disabled
temporarily.
Driving on a steep slope or hill.DRIVER’S ATTENTION
The driver must be cautious in the
below situations as the system may
not work properly when recognition
of the lane marker is poor or limited
:
When lane and road condition is
poor
• It is difficult to distinguish the lane marker from road when the lane
marker is covered with dust or
sand.
• It is difficult to distinguish the color of the lane marker from
road.
• There is something looks like a lane marker.
• The lane marker is indistinct or damaged.
• The number of lanes increases/ decreases or the lane lines are
crossing (Driving through a toll
plaza/toll gate, merged/divided
lane).
• There are more than two lane markers.
• The lane marker is very thick or thin. (Continued)(Continued)
• The lane marker is not visible due
to snow, rain, stain, a puddle or
other factors.
• A shadow is on the lane marker because of a median strip,
guardrail, noise barriers and oth-
ers.
• When the lane markers are com- plicated or a structure substitutes
for the lines such as a construc-
tion area.
• There are crosswalk signs or other symbols on the road.
• The lane suddenly disappears such as at the intersection.
• The lane marker in a tunnel is cov- ered with dirt or oil and etc.
• The lane is very wide or narrow.
When external condition is inter-

To temporarily accelerate with
the cruise control on:
If you want to speed up temporarily
when the cruise control is on,
depress the accelerator pedal.
Increased speed will not interfere
with cruise control operation or
change the set speed.
To return to the set speed, take your
foot off the accelerator pedal.
To cancel cruise control, do
one of the following:
Depress the brake pedal.
Shift into N (Neutral) if equipped
with an Dual clutch transmission.
Press the CANCEL button located on the steering wheel.
Decrease the vehicle speed lower than the memory speed by approx-
imately 12 mph (20 km/h).
Decrease the vehicle speed to less than approximately 15 mph (25 km/h).
Each of these actions will cancelcruise control operation (the
cruise
set
indicator light will go off), but it
will not turn the system off. If you wish to resume cruise control opera-tion, move up the switch (to RES+)located on your steering wheel. Youwill return to your previously presetspeed.

LFA system activation
If the vehicle is inside the lane with
both lanes recognized by the sys-
tem, and there is no steep steering
made by the driver, LFA system
changes into steering assist mode.
The indicator light will come on
green, and the system helps the
vehicle stay in line by controlling the
steering wheel.
When the steering wheel is not con-
trolled temporarily, the indicator light
will flash green and changes to
white.
When the both lanes are not recog-
nized by the system, the system con-
trols the steering wheel limitedly
whether there is a vehicle in front or
not.
Warning
If you keep your hands off the wheel
while driving with LFA system assist-
ing the steering, the hands-off warn-
ing will be triggered.
If the driver keeps hands off the
wheel even with the hands-off warn-
ing on, the steering assist is tem-
porarily released automatically.
If you put your hands back on the
wheel with LFA system released, the
steering assist will re-start.
WARNING
LFA system ensures the vehicle
stays in its lane. LFA system
does not guarantee 100% safe-
ty. Make sure you always check
road conditions and drive safe-
ly at all times.
Never completely rely on your
LFA system.

Limitation of the system
If the driver turns on the turn signallight or the emergency warning
light to change the lane
- Operate the turn signal lightswitch before changing the lane
- If you change the lane without operating the turn signal lights,
steering reaction force of the
wheel may occur.
Once LFA system is turned on or the lane is changed, the vehicle
should be in the center of the road
to switch to the steering assist
mode. If the driver keeps driving
along the lane, LFA system will not
assist the steering.
When the ESC or VSM is activat- ed, the system does not assist
steering.
When driving on a curved road at a high speed, steering assist mode
may not work.
When driving at a speed faster than 110 mph (180 km/h), steering
assist mode may not work. When sudden steering is made,
the system could be temporarily
deactivated.
If you change the lane in a hurry, the system does not assist the
steering.
If the vehicle suddenly stops, it does not assist the steering.
If the lane is too narrow or too wide, steering is not assisted.
If the system is not able to recog- nize a vehicle in front and either of
the lanes is not recognized, the
steering is not assisted
If the radius is too small for the curve
Cautions for the driver
If the lane recognition is difficult or
limited for the LFA system as shown
below, the driver may need to be
careful because it may not operate or
may cause unnecessary operation.
• Roads or lane markings in bad con-
dition
- When The lane is tainted or invisible
- When the driver cannot see the lane due to rain, snow, dust,
sand, oil, puddles, etc
- When roads are set or the colors of the lane and road are not dis-
tinctive
- If there is a sign other than the lane near the lane or a mark sim-
ilar to the lane
- When the lane is not clear or damaged
- If the road is covered in the shad- ows of objects around the road,
such as medians, guard rails,
noise walls, and trees

Steering control
If both lanes are recognized properly
(lane color: white), the steering
wheel indicator ( ) lights up in
green and then the steering control
is initiated.When the system cannot provide
temporary steering inputs, the indi-
cator flashes green and then
changes to white. Even when HDA
system cannot provide temporary
steering inputs, it still controls the
distance from other vehicles.
(For information on non-operating
conditions of steering wheel control,
please refer to “Limitations of LFA
system” in this chapter.
Warning related to steering
wheel
The hands-off warning appears
when the system detects that the dri-
ver's hands are not on the steering
wheel while HDA system is in work.
(First warning: warning message,
Second warning: warning message
with warning sound)
