Highway Driving Assist (HDA)*†6
Highway Driving Assist (HDA) is designed to adjust the speed of the vehicle when driving on
limited/controlled access highways/freeways. The system can adjust the vehicle’s speed based
on available highway speed information. The automatic speed setting mode is designed to set
the speed automatically by adjusting to the current speed limits of the highway the vehicle is
traveling on.
To activate HDA, turn Smart Cruise Control (SCC) on by pressing the Driving Assist CRUISE /
Driving Assist Mode CRUISE button* A on the Steering Wheel. When HDA is activated
and the conditions are met, the Instrument Cluster indicator B will illuminate green. If the
conditions are not met, HDA will be in standby mode and the indicator light B will illuminate
white. When in operation, and if both lanes are recognized, the Instrument Cluster will show the
lanes illuminated white and the HDA indicator illuminated green B.
If HDA is activated, conditions are met and the SCC speed is set by the driver (at the posted
highway speed limit or slower), HDA will enter the automatic speed setting mode. The set speed
and AUTO will be displayed C in green and an audible alert will sound.
HDA will operate only when these conditions are met:
• The vehicle is traveling slower than 95 mph or the highway speed limit
• When driving on limited/controlled access highways/freeways
• When the SCC is on and operating
• When the SCC speed is set to current posted highway speed or slower
HDA User Settings:
To enable HDA, press the Mode button D on the Steering Wheel and go to User Settings
in the Instrument Cluster. Press the Move (OK ) button E up/down and press to Driver Assistance,
then Driving Assist, Highway Driving Assist. Then press the OK button E to enable.
Some models access settings through the Vehicle Settings in the audio head unit. Press the Setup
hard key on the audio head unit, then press VEHICLE on the screen to enter Vehicle Settings.
Highway Driving Assist is not a substitute for safe driving, may not detect all objects around the vehicle, and only functions on certain federal highways. Always drive safely and use caution.
See section 5 in the Owner’s Manual for more detailed information, limitations and conditions.

To deactivate MSL A, press and hold the Driving Assist B again.
Intelligent Speed Limit Assist is designed to use the information from the
posted speed limit and the navigation system to inform the driver of the
speed limit.
When ISL A is on and active, the system will display an alert on the
Instrument Cluster LCD D of the detected speed limit. If the vehicle’s
current speed exceeds the detected speed limit, a warning will sound and
the vehicle’s current speed will blink on the LCD.
ISLA User Settings:
To turn ISL A on, press the Mode button E on the Steering Wheel and
go to User Settings on the Instrument Cluster LCD. Press the Move (OK )
button F up/down and select Driver Assistance by pressing the OK button F, then Intelligent Speed Limit Assist.

display a message change the set speed of the MSL A or SCC to help the
driver stay within the posted speed limit
• Speed Limit Warning: Informs the driver of the detected speed limit
and warn the driver when the vehicle is traveling faster than the posted
speed limit
• Off: MSL A is disabled
REMINDERS:
• Set the vehicle speed within the posted speed limits
• When not in use, keep MSL A off, to avoid inadvertently setting the vehicle speed
REMINDERS:
• Vehicle must be parked and in a safe location to change the speed settings
• Additional information may be displayed if additional road sign information is detected
MSLA/ISLA are not substitutes for safe and proper driving. Always drive safely and use caution. Refer to section 5 in the Owner’s Manual for more information

You can set a speed limit offset to the posted speed limit by going to User Settings, Driver Assistance, Speed Limit, then Speed Limit Offset. Set the offset to “0” if you want the vehicle to travel at the detected speed limit, when ISL A is on

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 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.
On some models, press the Driving Assist Mode CRUISE button* on the Steering Wheel to activate and the speed will be set to the
current vehicle speed. SCC may decrease the speed to maintain the distance with the vehicle in front.
To set/adjust the SCC speed:
•Push the Driving Assist CRUISE / Driving Assist Mode CRUISE button* A to turn the system ON & set the current speed
(One-Touch Set). 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 the RES+/SET- (+/-) button* B up/down to increase/decrease the set speed
•The SET indicator light, set speed and vehicle distance will illuminate on the instrument cluster’s LCD screen C
To set the vehicle distance: Press the Vehicle Distance button D on the steering wheel. The image on the LCD screen C will change when scrolling through
the settings. Each time the button is pressed, the vehicle distance changes.
To cancel or pause SCC operation: Press the CANCEL* or pause button* B. The cruise indicator on the instrument cluster will turn OFF.
To turn SCC OFF: Press the Driving Assist CRUISE / Driving Assist Mode CRUISE button A. The cruise indicator on the instrument cluster will turn OFF.
To adjust the sensitivity of the SCC system: Press the mode
button E on the Steering Wheel. With the OK button F, select
Driver Assistance, then SCC Response. Then select Fast, Normal or Slow.
To change the cruise control mode from SCC to standard cruise
control, press and hold button A. Repeat to switch back to SCC
mode ( The SCC system must not be activated to change modes.
Some Kia models use the CRUISE button).
Smart Cruise Control (SCC) with Stop & Go*†6
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.
