- Do not allow cigarettes, sparks, or flame near the battery.

Kia Stinger (CK) 2018-2023 Owner's Manual: Lane Keeping Assist (LKA) system
The Lane Keeping Assist (LKA) system is designed to detect the lane markers on the road with a front view camera at the front windshield, and assists the driver's steering to help keep the vehicle in the lanes. When the system detects the vehicle straying from its lane, it alerts the driver with a visual and audible warning, while applying a slight countersteering torque, trying to prevent the vehicle from moving out of its lane.Kia Stinger (CK) 2018-2023 Owner's Manual: Bulb replacement precaution
