Kia EV6: Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist operation / Evasive Steering Assist function: (if equipped)

• While the Kia EV6 Emergency Steering system is operating, the steering wheel may move automatically without additional driver input.

• The Kia EV6 Evasive Steering Assist function automatically ends once collision risk conditions disappear. The driver should adjust steering input as necessary after system intervention.

• Emergency Steering assistance may deactivate during operation if the steering wheel is held too firmly or if the driver steers strongly in the opposite direction.

• When the Kia EV6 steering assist system intervenes to avoid collisions with vehicles, pedestrians, cyclists, or motorcyclists, the Evasive Steering Assist function may deactivate if additional potential collision risks are detected nearby.

• The Kia EV6 Evasive Steering Assist system may not operate if there is insufficient road space available to perform a safe avoidance maneuver.

• During nighttime driving, the Kia EV6 detection capability for motorcycles and powered two-wheelers may be reduced. Under low-visibility conditions, the Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist system may operate with temporary limitations or reduced effectiveness.

• Heavy rain, snow, fog, dirty sensors, or poor road markings may temporarily affect the operating performance of the Kia EV6 Evasive Steering Assist system.

For additional details regarding Kia EV6 warning notifications and system alerts, refer to the Collision Warning section of this manual.

• For maximum safety, always adjust Kia EV6 Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist settings only after parking the vehicle in a safe and secure location.

• The Kia EV6 Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist system does not operate in every driving situation and cannot prevent all accidents or collisions.

• The driver remains fully responsible for controlling the Kia EV6 at all times. Do not rely entirely on the Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist system.

  Always maintain a safe following distance, pay close attention to surrounding traffic conditions, and manually apply the brake pedal whenever necessary to reduce vehicle speed or stop the vehicle safely.

• Never intentionally drive the Kia EV6 toward pedestrians, vehicles, obstacles, or any other objects in an attempt to test the Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist system.

  Doing so may result in severe injury, vehicle damage, or death.

• The Kia EV6 Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist system may not operate correctly if the driver is already manually braking to avoid a collision.

• Depending on road conditions, traffic flow, weather, visibility, or surrounding environments, the Kia EV6 Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist system may provide warnings late or may not provide warnings at all.

• During Kia EV6 Emergency Braking operation, the vehicle may stop abruptly.

  Sudden deceleration may cause unsecured cargo or loose objects inside the vehicle to shift unexpectedly and potentially injure occupants.

  Always wear seat belts and properly secure all loose items inside the Kia EV6.

• The Kia EV6 Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist system may not display warning messages or generate audible alerts if another driver assistance system warning message or warning sound is already active at the same time.

• The audible warning sounds of the Kia EV6 Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist system may be difficult to hear in noisy surroundings or while loud audio systems are operating.

• Depending on road surface conditions, weather conditions, sensor visibility, or nearby environmental factors, the Kia EV6 Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist system may temporarily turn OFF, operate unnecessarily, or function improperly.

• Even if the Kia EV6 Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist system experiences a malfunction, the vehicle’s normal braking performance will continue to operate.

• Kia EV6 Emergency Braking intervention initiated by the Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist system may automatically end if the driver applies strong braking force or rapidly turns the steering wheel.

• Heavy rain, snow, fog, dirty sensors, or direct sunlight may temporarily reduce the detection capability of the Kia EV6 driver assistance systems.

• The surrounding driving environment may affect the operating speed range and detection capability of the Kia EV6 Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist system, which could temporarily limit or disable system operation.

• The Kia EV6 Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist system evaluates the direction, speed, distance, and surrounding traffic conditions of oncoming vehicles when determining collision risk levels.

• The Kia EV6 system may not activate if the vehicle is traveling at very high speeds or when there is a significant speed difference between your vehicle and surrounding traffic.

• If the Kia EV6 determines that an additional collision risk may occur during emergency steering intervention, the Lane-Change Oncoming, Lane-Change Side, and Evasive Steering Assist functions may provide only warning notifications without steering assistance. : (if equipped)

• Radar sensors and front cameras on the Kia EV6 should always be kept clean and unobstructed to ensure proper system performance.

• If a collision becomes imminent, the Kia EV6 Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist system may automatically provide additional brake assist even if the driver is already braking, provided the braking force is insufficient to avoid the collision.

• The appearance of warning images, icons, graphics, or colors displayed on the Kia EV6 instrument cluster or infotainment screen may vary depending on cluster specifications, display themes, software versions, or regional vehicle configuration.

• Certain Kia EV6 Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist functions may operate differently depending on vehicle trim level, installed equipment, and regional market specifications.
