2018 KIA STONIC engine

CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
The cruise control system allows you to
program the vehicle to maintain a con‐
stant speed without pressing the accel‐ erator pedal.
This system is designed to function
above approximately 30 km/h (20
mph).
WARNING
•If the cruise control is left on,(CRUISE indicator light in the in‐strument cluster illuminated) thecruise control can be switched onaccidentally. Keep the cruise con‐trol system off (CRUISE indicatorlight OFF) when the cruise controlis not in use, to avoid inadvertent‐ly setting a speed.
•Use the cruise control system onlywhen traveling on open highwaysin good weather.
(Continued)
(Continued)
•Do not use the cruise control whenit may not be safe to keep the carat a constant speed, for instance,driving in heavy or varying traffic,or on slippery (rainy, icy or snow-covered) or winding roads or over6% uphill or down-hill roads.
•Pay particular attention to thedriving conditions whenever usingthe cruise control system.
CAUTION
During cruise-speed driving of amanual transaxle vehicle, do notshift into neutral without depressingthe clutch pedal, since the enginewill be over-revved. If this happens,depress the clutch pedal or releasethe cruise control ON-OFF switch.
NOTICE
During normal cruise control opera‐
tion, when the SET switch is activa‐
ted or reactivated after applying the
brakes, the cruise control will ener‐
gize after approximately 3 seconds.
This delay is normal.
NOTICE
To activate cruise control, depress
the brake pedal at least once after
turning the ignition switch to the ON
position or starting the engine. This
is to check if the brake switch which
is important part to cancel cruise
control is in normal condition.

Driving your vehicle

• Use your air conditioning sparingly.The air conditioning system is oper‐
ated by engine power so your fuel economy is reduced when you use it.
• Open windows at high speeds can re‐ duce fuel economy.
• Fuel economy is less in crosswinds and headwinds. To help offset some
of this loss, slow down when driving
in these conditions.
Keeping a vehicle in good operating
condition is important both for econo‐
my and safety. Therefore, have the system serviced by a professional
workshop.
Kia recommends to visit an authorized
Kia dealer/service partner.
WARNING
nEngine off during motion
Never turn the engine off to coastdown hills or anytime the vehicle isin motion. The power steering andpower brakes will not function prop‐erly without the engine running. In‐stead, keep the engine on and down‐

shift to an appropriate gear for en‐gine braking effect. In addition, turn‐ing off the ignition while drivingcould engage the steering wheel lockresulting in loss of vehicle steeringwhich could cause serious injury ordeath.

SPECIAL DRIVING CONDITIONS
Hazardous driving conditions
When hazardous driving conditions are
encountered such as water, snow, ice, mud, sand, or similar hazards, follow
these suggestions: • Drive cautiously and allow extra dis‐ tance for braking.
• Avoid sudden braking or steering.
• When braking with non-ABS brakes pump the brake pedal with a light up-
and-down motion until the vehicle is stopped.
WARNING
nABS
Do not pump the brake pedal on avehicle equipped with ABS.
• If stalled in snow, mud, or sand, use second gear. Accelerate slowly to
avoid spinning the drive wheels.
• Use sand, rock salt, tire chains, or other non-slip material under the
drive wheels to provide traction when
stalled in ice, snow, or mud.
WARNING
nDownshifting
Downshifting with an automatictransaxle, while driving on slipperysurfaces can cause an accident. Thesudden change in tire speed couldcause the tires to skid. Be carefulwhen downshifting on slippery sur‐faces.
Rocking the vehicle
If it is necessary to rock the vehicle to
free it from snow, sand, or mud, first turn the steering wheel right and left
to clear the area around your front
wheels. Then, shift back and forth be‐ tween 1st (First) and R (Reverse) in ve‐
hicles equipped with a manual transaxle
or R (Reverse) and any forward gear in
vehicles equipped with an automatic transaxle. Do not race the engine, and
spin the wheels as little as possible. If
you are still stuck after a few tries, have the vehicle pulled out by a tow ve‐
hicle to avoid engine overheating and
possible damage to the transaxle.
CAUTION
Prolonged rocking may cause engineover-heating, transaxle damage orfailure, and tire damage.
WARNING
nSpinning tires
Do not spin the wheels, especially atspeeds more than 56 km/h (35mph). Spinning the wheels at highspeeds when the vehicle is station‐ary could cause a tire to overheatwhich could result in tire damagethat may injure bystanders.
NOTICE
The ESC system (if equipped) should
be turned OFF prior to rocking the
vehicle.

WINTER DRIVING
More severe weather conditions of win‐
ter result in greater wear and other problems. To minimize winter driving
problem, you should follow these sug‐
gestions: ❈ Snow tires and tire chains for the
national language (Icelandic, Bul‐
garian) see the Appendix to chapter
10.
Snowy or icy conditions
To drive your vehicle in deep snow, it
may be necessary to use snow tires or to install tire chains on your tires. If
snow tires are needed, it is necessary
to select tires equivalent in size and type of the original equipment tires.
Failure to do so may adversely affect
the safety and handling of your car. Furthermore, speeding, rapid accelera‐
tion, sudden brake applications, and
sharp turns are potentially very haz‐ ardous practices.
During deceleration, use engine braking
to the fullest extent. Sudden brake ap‐
plications on snowy or icy roads may cause skids to occur. You need to keep
sufficient distance between the vehicle
in operation in front and your vehicle. Also, apply the brake gently. It should
be noted that installing tire chains on
the tire will provide a greater driving force, but will not prevent side skids.
NOTICE
Tire chains are not legal in all coun‐
tries. Check the country laws before
fitting tire chains.
Snow tires
If you mount snow tires on your vehi‐
cle, make sure they are radial tires of the same size and load range as the
original tires. Mount snow tires on all
four wheels to balance your vehicle’s handling in all weather conditions. Keep
in mind that the traction provided by
snow tires on dry roads may not be as high as your vehicle's original equip‐
ment tires.You should drive cautiously
even when the roads are clear. Check with the tire dealer for maximum
speed recommendations.
WARNING
nSnow tire size
Snow tires should be equivalent insize and type to the vehicle's stand‐ard tires. Otherwise, the safety andhandling of your vehicle may be ad‐versely affected.
Do not install studded tires without
first checking local, state and municipal regulations for possible restrictionsagainst their use.

ways place the vehicle in P (Park),apply the parking brake and turn offthe engine before installing snowchains.
WARNING
nTire chains
•The use of chains may adverselyaffect vehicle handling.
•Do not exceed 30 km/h (20 mph)or the chain manufacturer’s rec‐ommended speed limit, whicheveris lower.
•Drive carefully and avoid bumps,holes, sharp turns, and other roadhazards, which may cause the ve‐hicle to bounce.
•Avoid sharp turns or lockedwheelbraking.
CAUTION
•Chains that are the wrong size orimproperly installed can damageyour vehicle's brake lines, suspen‐sion, body and wheels.
•Stop driving and retighten thechains any time you hear themhitting the vehicle.
Use high quality ethylene glycol
coolant
Your vehicle is delivered with high quali‐
ty ethylene glycol coolant in the cooling
system. It is the only type of coolant
that should be used because it helps
prevent corrosion in the cooling sys‐ tem, lubricates the water pump and
prevents freezing. Be sure to replace or
replenish your coolant in accordance with the maintenance schedule in
