Driving your vehicle
Hill-start assist control (HAC) (if equipped)
A vehicle has the tendency to slip
back on a steep hill when it starts to
go after stopping. The Hill-start
Assist Control (HAC) prevents the
vehicle from slipping back by operat-
ing the brakes automatically for
about 1~2 seconds. The brakes are
released when the accelerator pedalis depressed or after about 1~2 sec-
onds.
✽✽NOTICE
 The HAC does not operate when the transaxle shift lever is in the P
(Park) or N (Neutral) position.
 The HAC activates even though the ESC is off but it does not acti-
vate when the ESC has malfunc-
tioned.
WARNING
The Vehicle Stability Management system is not a
substitute for safe driving
practices but a supplementary
function only. It is the respon-
sibility of the driver to always
check the speed and the dis-
tance to the vehicle ahead.
Always hold the steering
wheel firmly whilst driving.
Your vehicle is designed to activate according to the dri-
ver’s intention, even with the
VSM installed. Always follow
all the normal precautions for
driving at safe speeds for the
conditions – including driving
in inclement weather and on a
slippery road.
Driving with varying tyre or wheel sizes may cause theVSM system to malfunction.
When replacing tyres, make
sure they are the same size as
your original tyres.WARNING
The HAC is activated only for
about 1~2 seconds, so when the
vehicle is starting off alwaysdepress the accelerator pedal.

If the system does not work properly,
a warning message will appear and
the light on the switch will turn off. The
system will turn off automatically.
We recommend you to have the sys-
tem checked by an authorised Kia
dealer. RCTA (Rear cross traffic alert)
When your vehicle moves backwards
from a parking position, the sensor
detects approaching vehicles to the
left or right side direction and gives
information to the driver.
Operating conditions
Select "Driving Assist" under "User
Settings" and click "Rear Collision
Warning" to select "Rear Cross
Traffic Alert" on the instrument
cluster. Then, the system will turn
on and stand by to be activated.
Unclick "Rear Cross Traffic Alert" again, to turn the system off.
If the vehicle is turned off and on again, the Rear Cross Traffic Alert
system will return to the state right
before the vehicle was turned off.
Turn the Rear Cross Traffic Alert
system off when not in use.
The system is operated when the vehicle speed is below 10km/h with
the shift lever in R (Reverse).
The RCTA (Rear Cross Traffic Alert) detection range is 0.5m~20m
based on side direction. If an
approaching vehicle speed is 7
km/h~36 km/h in detection range,
The warning is on. However, the
system sensing range is different
based on conditions. Always payattention to surrounding.

What to do in an emergency
Use a towing strap less than 5 m(16 feet) long. Attach a white or red cloth (about 30 cm (12 inches)
wide) in the middle of the strap for
easy visibility.
Drive carefully so that the towing strap is not loosened during tow-ing.
Emergency towing precautions
Turn the ignition switch to ACC sothe steering wheel isn’t locked.
Place the transaxle shift lever in N (Neutral).
Release the parking brake.
Depress the brake pedal with more force than normal since you will
have reduced brake performance.
More steering effort will be required because the power steer-
ing system will be disabled.
If you are driving down a long hill, the brakes may overheat and brake
performance will be reduced. Stop
often and let the brakes cool off.
OXM069009
WARNING
Use extreme caution when tow-
ing the vehicle.
Avoid sudden starts or erratic driving manoeuvres which
would place excessive stress
on the emergency towing hook
and towing cable or chain. The
hook and towing cable or
chain may break and cause
serious injury or damage.
If the disabled vehicle is unable to be moved, do not
forcibly continue the towing.
We recommend that you con-tact an authorised Kia dealer
or a commercial tow truck
service for assistance.
Tow the vehicle as straight ahead as possible.
Keep away from the vehicle during towing.
