Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist-Pedestrian (FCA-Ped)†6 /
Forward Collision Warning (FCW)*†6
The FCA-Ped is designed to help alert the driver and, under certain conditions, apply emergency braking, when
rapidly approaching a vehicle that is slowing down, braking or stopped Initially, the FCA-Ped provides Forward
Collision Warning (FCW ) when it detects a potential collision with a vehicle in front, emitting an audible warning and
visual alert on the instrument cluster A Adjust the alert settings (Early, Normal, Late) in the User Settings To turn the
FCA-Ped/FCW off, go to User Settings again and turn off
If the system detects that the collision risk has increased, the Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist-Pedestrian (FCA-
Ped) automatically applies the brakes to reduce your speed, potentially helping to minimize the effects of a possible
collision FCA-Ped can be turned ON in the User Settings menu on the Instrument Cluster display
The FCA-Ped/FCW will become active when the:
•Engine Start /Stop button is ON
•Vehicle is traveling more than 5 mph
•Electronic Stability Control (ESC) is ON
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist-Pedestrian (FCA-Ped) / Forward Collision Warning (FCW)* are not substitutes for safe and proper driving. Always drive safely and use caution. FCA-Ped and FCW may not always alert the driver when the vehicle is approaching another vehicle.
REMINDERS:
• FCA-Ped/FCW will be activated by default when vehicle power is cycled on, even when previous setting is off
• FCA-Ped/FCW will not operate when the vehicle is traveling more than approximately 50 mph
• If FCA-Ped is operating and the ESC (Electronic Stability Control) is turned off, FCA-Ped system is automatically turned off
• When FCA-Ped system is off, FCA-Ped warning indicator is on in the instrument cluster

REMINDER: The HAC does not operate when the gear shift is in the P (Park) or the N (Neutral) position
•
•HAC provides a two-second delay before the vehicle may start rolling backwards •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

Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT)*
Some Kia vehicles are equipped with Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT ) for both automatic and manual transmissions
The following are unique driving tips of the Dual Clutch Transmission:
• To hold the vehicle stationary on an incline, the service brake or parking brake MUST be used or the gear shift MUST be in the (P) Park position
If the vehicle is held stationary by applying the accelerator pedal on a slope, the clutch/transmission may overheat, resulting in damage
• Avoid aggressive launches on steep grades as this may result in an overheated clutch and transmission
• A slight time lag may be experienced at takeoff from standstill during aggressive acceleration maneuvers
If the clutch is overheating an amber-colored warning light will be displayed on the instrument cluster
Should this condition occur, pull over and place the vehicle in Park and idle the engine.
Refer to the Owner’s Manual for additional information on DCT operation or call Kia Consumer Affairs for additional information.
