System malfunction
When the FCA is not working prop-erly, the FCA warning light ( )
will illuminate and the warning
message will appear for a few sec-
onds. After the message disap-
pears, the master warning light
( ) will illuminate. In this case,
have the vehicle inspected by an
authorized Kia dealer.
The FCA warning message may appear along with the illumination
of the ESC warning light. The FCA may unnecessarily pro-
duce warning messages and warn-
ing alarms. Due to the sensing lim-
itation, the FCA may not produce
warning messages or warning
alarm at all.
When there is a malfunction with the FCA, the braking control does
not operate upon detecting a colli-
sion risk even with other braking
systems normally operating.
The FCA operates only for the vehicle / pedestrian in front, while
driving forward. It does not operate
for any animals or vehicles in the
opposite direction.
The FCA can not recognize cross- traffic or parked vehicles present-
ing a sideprofile.

WARNING
The FCA is only a supplemental
system for the driver’s conven-
ience.
The driver still maintains
responsibility to control the
vehicle. Do not solely depend
on the FCA system. Rather,
maintain a safe braking dis-
tance, and, if necessary,
depress the brake pedal to
lower the driving speed.

- When the back light is projected in
the direction of the vehicle's motion
(including the headlights of vehi-
cles)
- Road sign, shadow on the road, tunnel entrance, toll gate, partial
pavement
- Driving on a curve
The FCA performance decreases
while driving on a curve. The FCA
may not recognize the vehicle in front
even in the same lane. It may unnec-
essarily produce the warning mes-
sage and the warning alarm, or it
may not produce the warning mes-
sage and the warning alarm at all.
While driving on a curve, exercise

tem from unnecessarily decelerating
your vehicle. Always take a look
around the vehicle for your safety
before activating the FCA system.- Driving on a slope

may not produce the warning mes-
sage and the warning alarm at all.
When the FCA suddenly recognizes
the vehicle 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.
