Kia Optima DL3: Forward Collision-avoidance Assist (FCA) system / Brake operation

  • In an urgent situation, the FCA system applies the brakes.
  • The FCA provides additional braking power for optimum braking performance, when the driver depresses the brake pedal.
  • The braking control is automatically deactivated, when the driver sharply depresses the accelerator pedal, or when the driver abruptly operates the steering wheel.
  • The FCA brake control is automatically canceled, when risk factors disappear.

CAUTION

The driver should always pay great caution to vehicle operation, even though there is no warning message or warning alarm. The warning of the FCA system may not sound while other system warning sounds.

WARNING

The FCA cannot avoid all collisions. The braking control cannot completely stop the vehicle. The driver is responsible to safely drive and control the vehicle.

WARNING

The FCA system logic assesses the risk of a collision by monitoring several variables, such as the distance from the vehicle ahead, the speed of the vehicle ahead, and the driver's vehicle speed. Certain conditions, such as inclement weather and road conditions, may affect the operation of the FCA system.

WARNING

Never deliberately drive dangerously to activate the system.

    This warning message appears on the LCD display with a warning chime. Additionally, some vehicle system intervention occurs by the engine management system to help decelerate the vehicle.

    In order for the FCA system to operate properly, always make sure the sensor are clean and free of dirt, snow, and debris. Dirt, snow, or foreign substances on the sensor of its external parts may adversely affect the sensing performance of the sensor.
