Kia K5 2021 Vehicle Feature Tips

BLIND-SPOT COLLISION-AVOIDANCE ASSIST (BCA)*
7
BCA is designed to help alert the driver before changing lanes. BCA uses a front-view
camera on the front windshield and rear-corner radar sensors in the rear bumper to
help alert the driver and temporarily apply braking in certain situations if it detects an
approaching vehicle in the driver’s blind spot area.
To turn BCA on, go to User Settings by pressing the Mode button on the Steering Wheel
or the Vehicle Settings* on the audio head unit. Select Driver Assistance > Blind-Spot
Safety. Then select Active Assist, Warning Only or Off.
• Warning Only – The Warning Only setting will activate the 1st and 2nd stage alerts:
• 1st-stage: When another vehicle is detected within the BCA system warning
boundary, a yellow indicator will illuminate on the outside rearview mirrors.
• 2nd-stage: When the 1st stage alert is on and the driver activates a turn signal,
a flashing yellow indicator will illuminate on the outside rearview mirrors and the
system will sound a warning.
• To set the initial warning activation time, go to the settings > Driver Assistance >
Warning Timing. Then select the Normal or the Late option.
• Active Assist – When Active Assist is selected in the settings, BCA may activate
the Electronic Stability Control (ESC) and temporarily apply braking power when an
approaching vehicle is detected within a certain distance next to or behind the vehicle.
A warning message may appear on the Instrument Cluster LCD.
REAR OCCUPANT ALERT (ROA) WITH DOOR MONITORING
9
• ROA with Door Monitoring can help alert the driver when a rear passenger may be left in the vehicle. The alert will be a
message on the Instrument Cluster stating to “Check rear seats” and a chime will sound.
• The factory default is set to OFF. To turn the system ON or OFF, go to User Settings in the Instrument cluster or
Vehicle Settings,* on the audio head unit select Convenience, then Rear Occupant Alert and check/uncheck the box.

Windshield fogging is caused by moisture in the air condensing on the cold glass. The
following practices can help reduce window fogging:
