The ESC system is designed to help stabilize the vehicle during certain
cornering maneuvers. It is a good idea to keep the ESC turned on for
daily driving whenever possible.
Press the ESC OFF button A to turn Traction Control OFF/ON.
To turn OFF both the Traction Control and Stability Control, press and
hold for more than 3 seconds. Press it again to turn ON.
HAC helps prevent the vehicle from rolling backwards when
accelerating from a stop while on a steep incline. The HAC automatically
activates whether the ESC is OFF or ON but does NOT activate when the
ESC has malfunctioned.
REMINDERS:
•
ESC is active by default at vehicle startup. When the ignition is cycled, ESC will turn ON again
•
The ESC Indicator Light in the instrument cluster will illuminate whenever the ESC is in operation
For more information on Electronic Stability Control (ESC) and its specific features and operation, please refer to your Owner’s Manual.
Electronic Stability Control (ESC)†8
Hill-Start Assist Control (HAC)†8
REMINDERS:
•HAC does not operate when the gear shift is in the P (Park) or the N (Neutral) position.
•In the event of HAC system malfunction, see an Authorized Kia Dealer for service
•HAC does not replace the need to apply brakes while the vehicle is stopped on an incline

Instrument Cluster Control
With the parking lights/headlights ON, press the button B (+) or (-)
to adjust the brightness of the instrument panel illumination.
REMINDER: The Instrument Cluster Control does not adjust brightness on the audio head unit screens. Use the display settings in the Setup menu to adjust the brightness on the screen.
•
•When HAC is active (e.g., during initial acceleration from a stop on an incline), you may notice that the brakes will momentarily remain engaged after you depress the accelerator – this is normal HAC operation. •HAC provides a two-second delay before the vehicle may start rolling backwards

Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA)†6
The FCA system is designed to detect slowing or stopped traffic ahead and, under certain conditions, can apply the brakes
in order to help avoid or reduce the effects of a potential collision. Initially, FCA provides Forward Collision Warning (FCW )
when it detects a pedestrian or a potential collision with a vehicle in front, emitting an audible warning and visual alert on
the instrument cluster A.
Adjust the alert settings (Early, Normal, Late) in the User Settings. FCA is ON by default
and can be turned OFF in the User Settings menu on the Instrument Cluster display.
If the system detects that the collision risk has increased, FCA automatically applies
the brakes to reduce your speed, potentially helping to avoid or reduce the effects
of a possible collision. FCA can be turned ON in the User Settings menu on the
Instrument Cluster display.
FCA / FCW will become active when the:
• Engine Start /Stop button is ON
• Vehicle is traveling faster than 5 mph
• Electronic Stability Control (ESC) is ON
REMINDERS:
• The FCA / FCW systems will be activated by default when the ignition is cycled ON, even when the previous setting is OFF
• If the FCA / FCW systems are operating and ESC (Electronic Stability Control) is turned off, the systems are automatically turned off
• When the FCA / FCW systems are off, the FCA-Ped / FCW systems warning indicator is on in the Instrument Cluster
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) / Forward Collision Warning (FCW) are not substitutes for safe driving and may not detect all objects in front of the vehicle. Always drive safely and use caution.
For illustrative purposes only. Your actual display, buttons and/or features may vary.

The Smart Cruise Control with Stop & Go* system is designed to maintain a predetermined distance from vehicles detected
ahead by automatically adjusting the driving speed as needed. When traffic is detected, the vehicle will automatically slow to
maintain a set distance between traffic without depressing the accelerator or brake pedal.
With the SCC on and activated, the vehicle-to-vehicle distance set, and the system detects a vehicle slowing or stopping, the system
can bring the vehicle to a complete stop. When the vehicle ahead starts to move forward, the SCC system re-engages. If the vehicle
ahead stops for more than 3 seconds, the accelerator pedal or the RES+ button must be pressed to start moving the vehicle.
To set/adjust the SCC speed:
•Push the CRUISE button A to turn the system ON. The CRUISE indicator will illuminate on the instrument cluster
•Accelerate/decelerate to the desired speed and press lever B down to set the speed
•Press button B down to set the speed. Press the RES+/SET- button B up/down to increase/decrease the set speed
•The SET indicator light, set speed and vehicle-to-vehicle distance will illuminate on the instrument cluster’s LCD screen
To set the vehicle-to-vehicle distance: Press the SCC button C on the steering wheel. The image on the LCD screen D
will change when scrolling through the settings. Each time the button is pressed, the vehicle-to-vehicle distance changes.
To cancel SCC operation: Press the CANCEL button E. The CRUISE indicator on the instrument cluster will turn OFF.
To turn SCC system OFF: Press the CRUISE button A. The CRUISE indicator on the instrument cluster will turn OFF.
Smart Cruise Control (SCC) with Stop & Go*†6
REMINDERS: •
The Cruise Control button must be ON in order to turn SCC ON/OFF •
SCC is activated when the ignition is turned on. Speed will need to be reset when the the ignition is cycled •
The cruise control system will not activate until the brake pedal has been depressed at least once after the ignition is ON or engine starting •
The SCC is also canceled when the driver’s door is opened, gear shift is changed out of D (Drive), EPB is activated and various other conditions. See owner’s manual for other conditions •
Keep the system off when not in use to avoid setting a speed which the driver is not aware of. If the SCC system is left on, it can be activated inadvertently. Keep the system off when not in use to avoid setting a speed which the driver is not aware of
The SCC system is a supplemental system and is not a substitute for safe driving. It is the responsibility of the driver to always check the speed and distance to the vehicle ahead.CRUISE100 MPHCRUISE100 MPH

•Manual mode downshifts are made automatically when the vehicle slows down. When the vehicle stops, 1st gear is automatically selected
QUICK TIPSA
When you select AWD Lock mode by pressing the AWD LOCK button A, the AWD LOCK mode increases the drive
power when driving on wet pavement, snow covered roads and/or off-road.
•This mode is used for climbing or descending sharp grades, off-road driving, driving on sandy and muddy
roads, etc., to improve traction
•This mode automatically shifts back to AWD AUTO mode at speed above 19 mph. If the vehicle decelerates to
speeds below approximate 25 mph, however, the transfer mode is shifted into AWD LOCK mode again
When the AWD LOCK mode is deactivated, a shock may be felt as the drive power is delivered entirely to the front
wheels. This shock is not a mechanical failure
