Kia Optima: 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.

• System setting and activation
• FCA warning message and system control
• Brake operation
• FCA sensor (Front View Camera)
• System malfunction
• Limitation of the system
