Kia Forte: Driving your vehicle / Forward Collision-avoidance Assist (FCA)
The FCA system is designed to detect and monitor a vehicle ahead in the roadway through camera recognition to warn the driver that a collision is imminent, and if necessary, apply emergency braking.
WARNING
The camera type FCA system does not operate for pedestrians in front.
WARNING
Take the following precautions when using the Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) system:
- This system is only a supplemental system and is not intended to, nor does it, replace the need for 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 for the road conditions or while cornering.
- Always drive cautiously to prevent unexpected and sudden situations from occurring. FCA does not guarantee to stop the vehicle completely and does not guarantee to avoid all collisions.

- Limitation of the system
A vehicle has the tendency to roll back on a steep hill when it starts to go after stopping. The Hill-start Assist Control (HAC) prevents the vehicle from rolling back by applying the brakes automatically for about 2 seconds.
System setting When the ignition switch is turned on, Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) automatically gets activated. The system can be deactivated if the driver cancels the system from the instrument panel as follows : 'User settings → Driving assist → Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist' The warning light illuminates on the LCD display, when you cancel the FCA system.
