WARNING

Driver responsibility

As the driver of the Kia K4, you must never rely solely on the Driver Assistance Systems. These sophisticated technologies are designed to support you, but they are not a substitute for active driver engagement, constant vigilance, and safe driving practices. These systems operate on the premise that the operator maintains full control of the vehicle, and they are intended to mitigate collision impact or provide assistance under normal driving conditions. There are inherent limitations to the recognition accuracy and control capabilities of these systems, which are detailed further in this manual. The driver bears sole responsibility for monitoring the vehicle's surroundings and driving safely at all times. Maintaining complete attention is a non-negotiable requirement; you must always be prepared to intervene, apply the brakes, or steer manually to avoid a potential collision. Please be aware that the Kia K4 is NOT an autonomous or self-driving vehicle. Failure to exercise proper care and attention while driving may result in severe injury, death, or extensive vehicle damage.

TIP

Please note that the descriptions of the driver assistance systems displayed on your infotainment screen may vary slightly from the documentation provided in this manual, depending on the specific software version currently installed in your Kia K4. Always prioritize the information provided in the latest manual updates.

Designed to enhance your driving experience, Lane Keeping Assist can provide proactive steering assistance to help prevent your Kia K4 from unintentionally drifting out of its lane. Furthermore, the system is engineered to provide an alert if it detects that the vehicle is departing from its lane without the driver engaging the turn signal.
