Emergency Braking can alert you with Forward Safety warning light blinking (Active emergency braking hazard warning icon in the Kia EV2), a warning message, an audible warning, and steering wheel vibration.

Emergency Braking may be activated in the following conditions:

  • Your driving speed is approximately 30-130 km/h (19-80 mph).

  • The oncoming vehicle speed is above approximately 10 km/h (6 mph) (including reversing).

  1. Drive carefully

When Emergency Braking stops your vehicle, a warning message appears on the instrument cluster.

For safety purposes, you should immediately engage the brake pedal and check the vehicle’s surroundings.

Brake control ends approximately 2 seconds after Emergency Braking stops your vehicle.

CAUTION

  • If your vehicle or the oncoming vehicle is not driving straight, the Front Oncoming function warning and control may be late or may not operate.

  • When driving at night, the ability to detect motorcycles is decreased. Thus, the Forward Collision- Avoidance Assist system may temporarily be limited or not work.
