is designed to help detect and moni-
tor the vehicle or pedestrians ahead
in the roadway through camera
recognition to warn the driver that a
collision is imminent, and if neces-
sary, apply emergency braking.

WARNING
Take the following precautions
when using Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist:
This system is only a supple- mental system and it is not
intended to, nor does it replace
the need for the extreme care
and attention of the driver. The
sensing range and objects
detectable by the sensors are
limited. Pay attention to the
road conditions at all times.
NEVER drive too fast in accor- dance with the road condi-
tions or while cornering.
Always drive cautiously to prevent unexpected and sud-
den situations from occur-
ring. FCA does not stop the
vehicle completely and is only
intended to help mitigate an
imminent collision.

FCA front view camera sensor
In order for FCA to operate properly,
always make sure the sensor are
clean and free of dirt, snow, and
debris.
Dirt, snow, or foreign substances on
the lens may adversely affect the
sensing performance of the sensor.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
• Never install any accessories or
stickers on the front windshield,
or tint the front windshield.
• Never place any reflective objects (i.e. white paper, mirror) over the
dashboard. Any light reflection
may cause a malfunction of the
system.
• Make sure the frontal camera does not get wet.
• Never disassemble the camera assembly, or apply any impact on
the camera assembly.
• Playing the vehicle audio system at high volume may prevent occu-
pants from hearing FCA warn-
ings.
• Be careful not to apply unneces- sary force on the sensor. If the sen-
sor is forcibly moved out of proper
alignment, the system may not
operate correctly. In this case, a
warning message may not be dis-
played. In this case, we recom-
mend you have the vehicle inspect-
ed by an authorized Kia dealer.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
We recommend you to have the sys-
tem checked by an authorized Kia
dealer when the windshield glass is
replaced.

Warning message and warninglight
When the sensor is covered with dirt,
snow, or debris, FCA operation may
stop temporarily.
If this occurs, a warning message will
appear on the LCD display.
Remove any dirt, snow, or debris and
clean the sensor before operating
FCA.
The system will operate normally
when such dirt, snow or debris is
removed. However, FCA system may not prop-
erly operate in an area (e.g. open ter-
rain), where any objects are not
detected after turning ON the engine.
Although a warning message will not
appear on the LCD display, FCA may
not properly operate.
System malfunction
When FCA is not working properly,
the FCA warning light ( ) will illu-
minate and the warning message
will appear for a few seconds. After

Limitation of the system
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
(FCA) is designed to monitor the
vehicle or pedestrians ahead in the
roadway through camera recogni-
tion to warn the driver that a colli-
sion is imminent, and if necessary,
apply emergency braking.
In certain situations, the camera may
not be able to detect the vehicle or
pedestrians ahead. In these cases,
FCA may not operate normally. The
driver must pay careful attention in
the following situations where FCA
operation may be limited.
Recognizing vehicles
The sensor may be limited when:
The front view camera is blockedwith a foreign object or debris
The camera lens is contaminated due to tinted, filmed or coated
windshield, damaged glass, or
stuck of foreign matter (sticker,
bug, etc.) on the glass
Inclement weather such as heavy rain or snow obscures the field of
view of camera
There is interference by electro- magnetic waves
The front view camera recognition is limited
The vehicle in front is too small to be detected (for example a motor-
cycle etc.)
The vehicle in front is an oversize vehicle or trailer that is too big to
be detected by the camera recog-
nition system (for example a tractor
trailer, etc.)
The camera's field of view is not well illuminated (either too dark or
too much reflection or too much
backlight that obscures the field of
view) The vehicle in front does not have
their rear lights or their rear lights
does not turned ON or their rear
lights are located unusually.
The outside brightness changes suddenly, for example when enter-
ing or exiting a tunnel
When light coming from a street light or an oncoming vehicle is
reflected on a wet road surface
such as a puddle in the road
The field of view in front is obstructed by sun glare
The vehicle in front is driving errat- ically
The vehicle is on unpaved or uneven rough surfaces, or road
with sudden gradient changes.
The vehicle drives inside a build- ing, such as a basement parking
lot
The front view camera does not recognize the entire vehicle in
front.

such as when the headlamps are
not on at night or the vehicle is
going through a tunnel.
The shadow is on the road by a median strip, trees, etc.
The vehicle drives through a toll- gate.
The windshield glass is fogged up; a clear view of the road is obstruct-
ed.
The rear part of the vehicle in front is not normally visible. (the vehicle
turns in other direction or the vehi-
cle is overturned.)
The adverse road conditions cause excessive vehicle vibrations while
driving
The sensor recognition changes suddenly when passing over a
The vehicle in front
is moving longitudinally to the driv-
ing direction The vehicle in front is stopped lon-
gitudinally

The pedestrian is not fully detected
by the camera recognition system,
for example, if the pedestrian is
leaning over or is not fully walking
upright
The pedestrian is moving very quickly or appears abruptly in the
camera detection area
The pedestrian is wearing clothing that easily blends into the back-
ground, making it difficult to be
detected by the camera recogni-
tion system
The outside lighting is too bright (e.g. when driving in bright sunlight
or in sun glare) or too dark (e.g.
when driving on a dark rural road
at night)
It is difficult to detect and distin- guish the pedestrian from other
objects in the surroundings, for
example, when there is a group of
pedestrians, or a large crowd. There is an item similar to a per-
son's body structure
The pedestrian is small
The pedestrian has impaired mobility
The sensor recognition is limited
The camera is blocked with a for- eign object or debris
