Lane Keeping Assist (LKA) (if equipped)

When the function detects the vehicle straying from its lane or road, it warns the driver with a visual and audible warning, while applying a counter-steering torque, trying to prevent the vehicle from moving out of its lane or road.

Lane Keeping Assist is not a substitute for safe driving practices, but a supplemental function. It is the responsibility of the driver to always be aware of the surroundings and steer the vehicle.

Take the following precautions when using Lane Keeping Assist:
-
Do not turn the steering wheel suddenly when the steering wheel is being assisted by the function.
-
Lane Keeping Assist helps to prevent the driver from moving out of the lane or road unintentionally by assisting the driver's steering. However, the function is just a convenience function and the steering wheel is not always controlled. While driving, the driver should pay attention to the steering wheel.
-
The operation of Lane Keeping Assist can be canceled or not work properly according to road condition and surroundings. Always be cautious when driving.
-
Do not disassemble the front view camera temporarily to tint the window or attach any types of coatings and accessories. If you disassemble the camera and assemble it again, we recommend that you take your vehicle to an authorized Kia dealer/service partner and have the function checked for calibration.
-
When you replace the windshield glass, front view camera or related parts of the steering wheel, we recommend that you take your vehicle to an authorized Kia dealer/service partner and have the function checked for calibration.
-
The function detects lane markers and road edge and controls the steering wheel by a front view camera, therefore, if the lane markers and road edge are hard to detect, the function may not work properly.

Please refer to More Details".
-
Do not remove or damage the related parts of Lane Keeping Assist.
-
You may not hear a warning sound of Lane Keeping Assist if the audio volume is high.
-
If any other warning sound such as seat belt warning chime is already generated, Lane Keeping Assist warning may not sound.
-
Do not place objects on the dashboard that reflects light such as mirrors, white paper, etc. This may prevent Lane Keeping Assist from functioning properly.
-
Always have your hands on the steering wheel while Lane Keeping Assist is activated.
-
The steering wheel is not continuously controlled so if the vehicle speed is at a higher rate when leaving a lane the vehicle may not be controlled by the function. The driver must always follow the speed limit when using the function.
-
If you attach objects to the steering wheel, the function may not assist steering.
-
When you tow a trailer, make sure that you turn off Lane Keeping Assist.
