Kia EV2: Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist operation / Junction Crossing function: (if equipped)

The advanced Junction Crossing functional capabilities integrated into the comprehensive Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist architecture of your Kia EV2 comprise:

• Collision Warning

• Emergency Braking

• Stopping vehicle and ending brake control

Collision Warning

Collision Warning

Collision Warning can proactively alert you with the Forward Safety warning light blinking (), a detailed warning message, an audible notification, and physical steering wheel vibration.

Collision Warning may be activated under the following precise conditions:

• Your driving speed is 55 km/h (34 mph) or below.

• The crossing vehicle speed is approximately 10-60km/h (6-37 mph).

• The detected object enters the calibrated operating sensor range of the Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist system in your Kia EV2.

Emergency Braking

Emergency Braking

Emergency Braking can alert you with the Forward Safety warning light blinking (), a warning message, an audible warning, and steering wheel vibration. Brake assist may activate to help avoid a collision with a vehicle.

Emergency Braking may be activated in the following conditions:

• Your driving speed is 55 km/h (34 mph) or below.

• The crossing vehicle speed is approximately 10-40km/h (6-25 mph).

• The object enters the operating range of the Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist.

• When approaching a control target traveling at a slower speed than your vehicle.

• When restarting after a stop, if your vehicle accelerates at a low speed of approximately 12 km/h (7.5 mph) or below, a collision warning or emergency braking will operate once per left and right side even if the controlled object is approaching faster than your vehicle, under the following condition:

  • Cross-traffic speed: approximately 18-90 km/h (11-56 mph)

Stopping vehicle and ending brake control

Drive carefully

If 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 the angle of possible collision with the crossing vehicle is beyond a certain range, Junction Crossing warning and control may be late or may not operate.
