The Warning Volume can be adjusted in the User Set tings  in the Instrument Cluster or the Vehicle Set tings* on the infotainment system  Go to Driver Assistance, Warning Method, then Warning Volume 
QUICK TIP
EMERGENCY BRAKING
COLLISION WARNINGFCA 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 Collision Warning when it detects a potential collision with a vehicle, pedestrian, or cyclist, emitting an audible warning and visual alert on the instrument cluster 
If FCA detects that the collision risk has increased, Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) automatically applies the brakes to reduce your speed, potentially helping to reduce the effects of a possible collision  
With the turn signal on, if it detects a potential collision, Junction Tu r n i n g A may help to avoid the collision with an oncoming vehicle in an adjacent lane when turning left by applying emergency braking  
FCA Settings:
 •FCA is on by default in most Kia models  FCA can be turned on/off by going to the User Settings* in the Instrument Cluster or the Vehicle Settings* in the Infotainment System 
 •Only adjust settings when the vehicle is at a standstill, gear shift is in Park and the ignition is on or the Engine Start/Stop button* in the on position 
 •To access User settings* in the Instrument Cluster - Press the Mode button  B on the Steering Wheel to toggle to User Settings  Press the OK button C up/down to toggle to Driver Assistance and Forward Safety
 •To access Vehicle settings* in the Infotainment System – Press the SETUP key or the onscreen SETUP button  Press VEHICLE to enter Vehicle Settings   Select Driver Assistance, Driving Safety and Forward Safety
 •To adjust the FCA initial warning activation time, go to User Settings , Driver Assistance, Warning Timing, then select Standard or Late, depending on your Kia model:
–  
Standard: This setting allows for a nominal amount of distance between the vehicles before the initial warning occurs 
–  Late: Reduces the amount of distance between the vehicles before the initial warning occurs 
FCA/FCW will become active when the:
 •Ignition is on or the Engine Start/Stop button* is ON
 •Vehicle is traveling faster than 5 mph
 •Electronic Stability Control (ESC) is ON
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA)†3
For ward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) is not a substitute for safe driving and may not detect all objects in front of the vehicle   Always drive safely and use caution 
Actual User Set tings steps may var y by model   Refer to section 6 in the Owner ’s Manual for more information 
REMINDERS: 
 • 
FCA will be activated by default when the ignition is cycled ON, even when previous set ting was OFF 
 •   
If FCA is operating and ESC (Electronic Stabilit y Control) is turned off, FCA is automatically turned off
 •   
When FCA is off, the FCA warning indicator is on in the Instrument Cluster

Blind-spot Collision Warning (BCW)*†3
BCW uses rear corner radar sensors in the rear bumper to monitor and warn the driver in certain situations if it detects an approaching vehicle in the driver ’s blind spot area, before changing lanes and before exiting a parallel parking space  BCW provides Collision Warning when it detects a potential collision with a vehicle, emitting an audible warning and visual alert on the outside rearview mirrors   On select Kia models, when exiting a parallel parking space and BCW detects that the collision risk has increased, BCW can help avoid a collision by applying the brakes 
Vehicle detection: When another vehicle is detected within BCW warning boundary A, an indicator will illuminate on the outside rearview mirrors B  
Collision warning: When vehicle detection warning is on and the driver activates a turn signal, a flashing indicator will illuminate on the outside rearview mirrors and the system will sound a warning  
Collision-Avoidance Assist*: On select Kia models, when collision warning has already occurred, and the collision risk has increased, BCW can help avoid a collision by applying the brakes  Your vehicle needs to be traveling less than 2 mph, and the approaching vehicle is traveling less than 3 mph  
BCW Settings: 
 •BCW can be turned on/off by going to the User Settings* in the Instrument Cluster or the Vehicle Settings* in the Infotainment System
 •Only adjust settings when the vehicle is at a standstill, gear shift is in Park and the ignition is on  or the Engine Start/Stop button* in the on position

Navigation-based Smart Cruise Control will help automatically adjust vehicle speed when driving on highways with posted speed 
limits by using road information from the navigation system, while Smart Cruise Control is operating 
Smart Cruise Control (SCC) is designed to maintain a predetermined distance from vehicles detected ahead by automatically 
adjusting the driving speed as needed  When traffic is detected, the vehicle will slow down to maintain a set distance behind traffic 
without depressing the accelerator or brake pedal  
Highway Curve Zone Auto Slowdown: NSCC can automatically adjust the vehicle speed when it detects a curved road ahead and 
when it receives road information from the navigation system   When NSCC detects a curve ahead, NSCC activates and reduces the 
vehicle speed, and the NAV icon changes to AUTO and turns green A in the instrument cluster  When the vehicle passes the curved 
road, the vehicle may return to its previously set speed  
Highway Auto Speed Change: If the set speed is set to the current posted speed limit on the highway during NSCC operation,  
the set speed is changed automatically whenever the posted speed limit changes and when it receives information from the 
navigation system 
SCC Operation: With SCC turned on and activated, the vehicle distance set, and the system detects a vehicle slowing or stopping, 
the system can bring the vehicle to a complete stop   When the vehicle ahead starts to move forward, SCC re-engages   If the vehicle 
ahead stops for more than 3 seconds, the accelerator pedal or the  button B must be pressed to start moving the vehicle  
SCC will adjust acceleration based on the drive mode selected in the Drive Mode Integrated Control system  
NSCC Settings:
 •NSCC can be turned on/off by going to the Vehicle Settings*  
in the Infotainment System
 •Only adjust settings when the vehicle is at a standstill, gear 
shift is in Park and the ignition is on or the Engine Start/Stop  
button* in the on position
 •To access Vehicle settings* in the Infotainment System  -
