Kia Cadenza: Driving your vehicle / Lane Keeping Assist (LKA)

Lane Keeping Assist detects the lane markers on the road with a front view camera at the front windshield, and assists the driver’s steering to help keep the vehicle in the lanes. When the system detects the vehicle straying from its lane, it alerts the driver with a visual and audible warning, while applying a slight counter-steering torque, trying to prevent the vehicle from moving out of its lane.

• LKA helps prevent the driver from moving out of the lane unintentionally by assisting the driver’s steering. If the driver intentionally drives on one side of the driving lane, a continuous steering force may occur.

However, the system is just a convenience function and the steering wheel is not always controlled. While driving, the driver should pay attention to the steering wheel.

WARNING

• Driver is responsible for being aware of surroundings and steering the vehicle safely.
• Do not steer the steering wheel suddenly when the steering wheel is being assisted by the system.
