Kia Optima DL3: Driving your vehicle / Forward Collision-avoidance Assist (FCA) system

Kia Optima DL3 2019-2026 Owner's Manual / Driving your vehicle / Forward Collision-avoidance Assist (FCA) system

The Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) system is designed to help detect and monitor the vehicle or pedestrians ahead in the roadway through camera recognition to warn the driver that a collision is imminent, and if necessary, apply emergency braking.

WARNING

Take the following precautionswhen using the Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) system:

  • This system is only a supplemental system and it 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 in accordance with the road conditions or while cornering.
  • Always drive cautiously to prevent unexpected and sudden situations from occurring. FCA does not stop the vehicle completely and is not a collision avoidance system.

Check to be sure the parking brake is not engaged and the parking brake indicator light is out before driving away. Driving through water may get the brakes wet.

System setting • The driver can activate the FCA by placing the ignition switch to the ON position and by selecting: 'User Settings → Driver Assistance → Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist' The FCA system deactivates, when the driver cancels the system setting.
