Kia Rio: Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) system (Radar type) / Brake operation

Kia Rio 2017-2022 YB Owners Manual / Driving your vehicle / Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) system (Radar type) / Brake operation

In an emergency situation, the braking system enters in ready status for prompt reaction upon the driver depressing the brake pedal.
FCA system 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 turns the steering wheel.
The braking control is automatically canceled when risk factors disappear.

CAUTION

The driver should always exercise caution when operating the vehicle, even though there is no warning message or warning alarm.

WARNING

FCA system braking control cannot completely stop the vehicle nor avoid all collisions. The driver should hold the responsibility to drive safely and control the vehicle.
