-
Your driving speed is approximately 25-90 mph (40-145 km/h).
-
It is within a certain period after the system determines that the vehicle has departed from its lane.
-

Emergency Steering

|
|
Emergency Steering can alert the driver with the Emergency Steering warning light blinking (), a warning message, an audible warning, and steering wheel vibration.
The warning light on the outside rearview mirror appears when a vehicle is detected approaching from the rear in the right or left adjacent lane. If the system determines that a collision risk remains during the lane-change movement, Emergency Steering may activate to help avoid or reduce the chance of contact.
Emergency Steering may activate under the following conditions:
-
Your speed is approximately 25-90 mph (40-145 km/h).
-
The side vehicle or motorcycle is moving while you are driving.
-
It is within a certain period after the system determines that the vehicle has departed from its lane.
-
The target enters the operating range of the Lane-Change Side function.
-
The vehicle is traveling on a straight road.
-
Both lane markings are detected.
-
There is no detected risk of a secondary collision.
WARNING
-
The Lane-Change Side function does not operate if the vehicle in the adjacent lane is stopped.
-
These functions do not operate when a car or motorcyclist in the next lane is stationary.
-
The front-side and rear-side radar detection range is based on the width of standard roads. On narrow roads, the system may issue warnings for a vehicle or motorcyclist traveling in a neighboring lane. On wider roads, the radar may not recognize a vehicle or motorcyclist in the next lane as reliably.
-
The Lane-Change Side function deactivates in the following situations:
-
You drive more than a certain distance into the next lane.
-
You move away from the direction where the collision risk exists.
-
You turn the steering wheel rapidly.
-
You press the brake pedal.
-
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist activates.
-
-
After the Lane-Change Side function is triggered or after completing a lane change, move the Kia Telluride toward the center of the lane. If you continue driving near the lane edge, the Lane-Change Side function may deactivate.
WARNING
If an additional accident risk is detected because of Emergency Steering, the system may provide only a Collision Warning to alert the driver to the danger.
