Anti-lock brake system (ABS)
ABS (or ESC) will not prevent acci-
dents due to improper or dangerous
driving maneuvers. Even though
vehicle control is improved during
emergency braking, always maintain
a safe distance between you and
objects ahead. Vehicle speeds
should always be reduced during
extreme road conditions. The vehicle
should be driven at reduced speeds
in the following circumstances:
When driving on rough, gravel or
snow-covered roads
When driving on roads where the
road surface is pitted or has differ-
ent surface heights.
Driving in these conditions increases
the stopping distance for your vehicle.The ABS continuously senses the
speed of the wheels. If the wheels
are going to lock, the ABS system
repeatedly modulates the hydraulic
brake pressure to the wheels.
When you apply your brakes under
conditions which may lock the
wheels, you may hear a “tik-tik’’
sound from the brakes, or feel a cor-
responding sensation in the brake
pedal. This is normal and it means
your ABS is active.
In order to obtain the maximum benefit
from your ABS in an emergency situa-
tion, do not attempt to modulate your
brake pressure and do not try to pump
your brakes. Press your brake pedal as
hard as possible to allow the ABS to
control the force being delivered to the
brakes.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
A click sound may be heard in the
engine compartment when the vehi-
cle begins to move after the engine is
started. These conditions are normal
and indicate that the anti-lock brake
system is functioning properly.

The warning light illumi-
nates on the LCD display,
when you cancel FCA sys-
tem. The driver can moni-
tor the FCA ON/OFF status on the
LCD display. Also, the warning light
illuminates when the ESC (Electronic
Stability Control) is turned off. When
the warning light remains ON with
FCA activated, have your vehicle
inspected by an authorized Kia deal-
er.Warning Timing
The driver can select the initial warn-
ing activation time on the LCD dis-
play.
Go to the “User Settings → Driver
Assistance →Warning Timing →
Normal/Later”The options for the initial Forward
Collision Warning includes the fol-
lowing:
- Normal:
When this condition is selected, the
initial Forward Collision Warning sys-
tem is activated normally. This setting
allows for a nominal amount of dis-
tance between the vehicle ahead
before the initial warning occurs.
- Later:
When this condition is selected, the
initial Forward Collision Warning sys-
tem is activated later than normal.
This setting reduces the amount of
distance between the vehicle ahead,
the pedestrian or the cyclist before
the initial warning occurs.
Select 'Later' when traffic is light and
when driving speed is slow.
If the vehicle in front puts on a burst
of speed, the driver can notice the
warning alarm is early even though
the later option is selected.

FCA warning message and
system control
FCA system produces warning mes-
sages and warning alarms in accor-
dance with the collision risk levels of
followings like vehicle’s sudden brak-
ing in front or lack of vehicle to vehi-
cle distance or collision to pedestri-
ans or cyclist. Also, it controls the
brakes in accordance with the colli-
sion risk levels.
The driver can select the initial warn-
ing activation time in the User set-
tings in the LCD display. The
options for the initial Forward
Collision Warning include Normal or
Late initial warning time.
Collision Warning (1st warning)
The warning message appears on
the LCD display with the warning
alarms.
The Vehicle may slow down slightly
- It will operate if the vehicle speed
is greater than 8 km/h (5 mph)
and less than or equal to 180
km/h (110 mph) on a forward
vehicle. (Depending on the condi-
tion of the vehicle ahead and the
environment surrounding it, the
possible maximum operating
speed may be reduced.)
WARNING
Completely stop the vehicle in
a safe location before operat-
ing the switch on the steering
wheel to activate/deactivate
FCA system.
FCA system automatically
activates upon placing the
ignition switch to the ON posi-
tion. The driver can deactivate
FCA system by canceling the
system setting on the LCD

equal to 8 km/h (5 mph) and less
than 70 km/h (45 mph).
(Depending on the condition of
pedestrians and bike riders and
the surrounding environment the
possible maximum operating
speed may be reduced.)
FCA system controls the brakes
within certain limit to release shock
from the collision.
- If you select “Warning Only”, FCA
system activates and produces
only warning alarms in accor-
dance with the collision risk lev-
els. You should control the brake
directly because FCA system do
not control the brake.Emergency braking (2nd warning)
The warning message appears on
the LCD display with the warning
alarms.
The brake control is maximized
just before a collision, reducing
impact when it strikes a forward
vehicle.
- It will operate if the vehicle speed
is greater than 8 km/h (5 mph)
and less than or equal to 80 km/h
(50 mph) on a forward vehicle.
(Depending on the condition of
the vehicle ahead and the envi-
ronment surrounding it, the possi-
ble maximum operating speed
may be reduced.)- For pedestrians and cyclists, the
vehicle speed is greater than or

WARNING
FCA system is only a supple-
mental system for the driver’s
convenience. The driver has
the ultimate responsibility to
control and operate the vehi-
cle safely. Do not solely
depend on FCA system.
Rather, maintain a safe brak-
ing distance, and, if neces-
sary, depress the brake pedal
to lower the driving speed.
In certain instances and
under certain driving condi-
tions, FCA system may acti-
vate unintentionally. This ini-
tial warning message appears
on the LCD display with a
warning chime.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Also, in certain instances the
front radar sensor or camera
recognition system may not
detect the vehicle, pedestrian
or cyclist (if equipped) ahead.
FCA system may not activate
and the warning message will
not be displayed.
FCA system may unnecessar-
ily produce the warning mes-
sage and the warning alarms.
Also, due to the sensing limi-
tation, FCA system may not
produce the warning message
and the warning alarm at all.
When there is a malfunction
with FCA system, the braking
control does not operate upon
detecting a collision risk even
with other braking systems
normally operating.
(Continued)(Continued)
FCA system operates only for
the vehicle/pedestrian in
front, while driving forward. It
does not operate for any ani-
mals or vehicles in the oppo-
site direction.
FCA system does not recog-
nize the vehicle, which trans-
versally drives across the
crossroad, or the vehicle,
which is parked in the trans-
versal 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 system may activate dur-
ing braking and the vehicle
may stop suddenly. And the
load in the vehicle may endan-
ger passengers. Therefore,
always be mindful of the load
volume in the vehicle.
