Kia Rio: 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.

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.
