Kia K4: Driver assistance guide / Highway Driving Assist (HDA):

• Highway Driving Assist is exclusively available on controlled-access roads on specific highways. A controlled-access road is defined by limited, designated entrances and exits that ensure uninterrupted, high-speed traffic flow; these roads are generally restricted to passenger cars and motorcycles.

• Coverage for additional highways may be expanded via future navigation system software updates for your Kia K4.

Note that Highway Driving Assist functions primarily on highway main roads and is not intended for use in complex interchanges or junctions.

For essential precautions regarding system sensors, please review the "Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) (Sensor Fusion)" section of the Kia K4 manual.

• When you hold the turn signal lever in the (1) position, the Highway Lane Change Assist operates. If you release the lever to the neutral position before crossing the lane line, the maneuver will cancel.

  However, the function does not cancel once you have crossed the lane line; the turn signal will automatically turn OFF once the Kia K4 completes the lane change.

• When you move the turn signal lever to the (2) position for a short duration, the green arrow will appear. The Highway Lane Change Assist will continue to operate even if you release the lever back to the neutral position.

• During the lane change, the turn signal indicator will blink automatically, even if you do not hold the lever. The signal indicator will automatically deactivate once your Kia K4 has successfully completed the lane change.

• Highway Lane Change Assist is canceled under any of the following circumstances:

  • You turn Highway Driving Assist OFF.

  • You turn OFF or temporarily cancel Lane Following Assist or Smart Cruise Control.

  • The instrument cluster displays the hands-off warning message.

  • You turn the turn signal lever to the (1) position.

  • You turn the hazard lights ON.

  • The instrument cluster displays a Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist or Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist warning message.

  • Your vehicle detects a possible collision in an adjacent lane, even without Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist and Blind Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist warnings.

  • The target lane ends.

  • Your vehicle does not detect the target lane.

  • There is a problem with the turn signal lights.

  • The function is OFF because you turned it OFF in the settings menu, the road changes to a one-way, there is an intersection or crosswalk ahead, there is a pedestrian or cyclist in the driving lane, or you enter a road with no structure, such as a median strip or guardrail.

  • If you drive below 15mph while the Highway Lane Change Assist status is ready, the function status changes to standby.

  • If you drive 20-40 mph (30-60 km/h) and your vehicle does not detect other vehicles in the right or left adjacent lanes, the Lane Change Assist status changes to standby.

  • Your vehicle detects a risk of collision.

• If you cancel Highway Lane Change Assist while it is operating, the vehicle may steer toward the center of the driving lane or steering assist may stop, depending on driving conditions. Always pay attention to the road and driving conditions.

• Highway Lane Change Assist may not operate normally on roads with pedestrians or cyclists, such as an intersection or crosswalk.

Any changes or modifications to the Kia K4 electronics not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
